Fox in the Penalty Area

The Chinese team won!

The defending champion is out!

It quickly became the most important news event of this Asian Cup.

Before the game, most people felt that the powerful Japanese team defeated the poorly formed Chinese team, and it should be no problem to break into the Asian Cup quarterfinals.

The only thing the Chinese team can fight for is the Asian Cup Golden Boot.

Hu Lai has scored four goals in the previous two group matches. If he can score a goal against the Japanese team, he can still compete for the golden boots.

As for the team’s performance, don’t expect it.

If someone bought the Japanese team to win before the game, it is estimated that they are all scolding their mothers now.

The Chinese team actually defeated the Japanese team!

And it was defeated by a score of 3:1, which was two goals behind the Japanese team!

It is also the first time that the Chinese team defeated the Japanese team in a national team level match in 29 years!

In the East Asian Cup in 2023, although everyone is sending the Olympic team, after all, it is called the national team in name, or the international A-level event. The Chinese team successfully won the East Asian Cup, but they also failed to beat Japan in the game. They drew with Japan…

Now in a real national team game, the Chinese team has beaten the Japanese team upright!

“There is no controversial penalty, no profit from violations, and no dirty fouls. The Chinese team only had two yellow cards in this game… It was a clean victory!”

After the game, Chinese fans posted such messages on the Internet, and they were quickly reposted by countless people.

Because he said the voice of the Chinese fans.

The last time China and Japan played against each other in the Asian Cup, the Japanese team relied on that handball to equalize the score and finally defeated the Chinese team. Koichi Sato, who scored a goal, always insisted that he did not have a handball, whether he was interviewed after the game or after he retired. Handball.

From “the video at the time was not clear enough, it could not prove the handball” to “the referee did not call the handball, it means there is no problem with the ball” to “I refuse to answer this question”.

Therefore, Sato Koichi’s evaluation in the minds of Chinese fans is very low. That’s why when Hu Lai helped the Chinese Olympic team defeat the Japanese Olympic team coached by Koichi Sato in the U23 Asian Cup final, the fans would be so crazy.

Everyone has seen Sato Hikaru upset for a long time, and finally slapped the little devil in the face!

Of course, on the side of Japanese football, Koichi Sato must do this again. Because if he admits that it’s handball, doesn’t it mean that the Japanese team’s only two consecutive Asian Cup championships are wrong?

This can be said to be a heavy blow to Japanese football.

Therefore, in terms of the national characteristics of the Japanese, of course they do not admit their mistakes.

In today’s game, the Chinese team won undisputedly.

This makes the Chinese fans feel particularly proud-your original victory was stolen, and our victory today is clean!

You shameless, but we want it! How can people be like dogs?

We not only want to win you, but you have nothing to say!

In the face of the victory of the Chinese team today, the Japanese team was shameless.

Because of this victory, there are even many Chinese football fans on the Internet.

On Weibo and Goal, fans even initiated the topic “Apologize to Guidance Dong”, and then quickly rose to the top of the hot topics list.

There is one thing to say, Dong Jianhai’s performance in this game is indeed very good.

Whether it is the pre-match tactical arrangements or the on-the-spot substitution adjustments, it is convincing.

The performance of the Chinese players is certainly an important reason for the team’s win, but the rational tactics and on-the-spot command of the head coach is the fundamental reason for the team’s victory.

Soon after the game, there were critics and famous writers praising Dong Jianhai.

Those who didn’t know the scene thought that Dong Jianhai had won the Asian Cup.

So that there are such jokes on the Internet:

“Before the game against the Japanese team: the incompetent pig commander will ruin the future of Chinese football!

1:0 lead the Japanese team: Zhu Shuai is just lucky, his crazy tactics are open to question!

Leading the Japanese team 2:0: Dong Jianhai’s whimsical ideas seem to have paid off…

Leading the Japanese team 3:1: Director Dong is about to lead the Chinese team to complete revenge!

After the match against Japan: the 2030 World Cup will usher in its loyal Dong guidance and his Chinese team! ”

“…The 2030 World Cup will usher in its loyal Dong guidance and the Chinese team he leads! Hahahaha!”

After Xie Lan finished reading the paragraph, she couldn’t help but tumble on the bed with a smile.

When Hu Lixin saw his wife like this, he couldn’t help but spit out: “You are simply performing the story from beginning to end…”

Xie Lan lay on the bed and looked up at her husband: “Don’t you also say that Dong Jianhai has two brushes?”

Hu Lixin was speechless.

When watching the ball, he did say so.

I greatly appreciated Dong Jianhai’s two substitutions and adjustments, and believed that Dong Jianhai’s on-the-spot command was very good.

It can even be said that the tactics chosen before the match were not the most important reason why the Chinese team was able to beat the Japanese team, but the two substitutions and adjustments were called a “stroke of magic.”

The first substitution, replacing Bai Di with Zhou Zijing, increased the tactical fulcrum that can hold the ball in the frontcourt, directly assisted Hu Lai to score and scored the most critical goal. After the goal was scored, the tight nerves of the Chinese team’s players were obviously relaxed, and the Japanese team was a little panicked.

In the second substitution, Mao Junzheng replaced Qu Lu, allowing Chen Xingyi and Luo Kai to retreat and play the full-back, which blocked the momentum of the Japanese team’s counterattack and laid the foundation for the final victory.

As for the last substitution, the time-wasting effect is greater than the tactical effect, which is nothing unusual.

But the level reflected in the first two substitutions is definitely not the performance of a “national football coach” who was ridiculed by fans across the country.

After Xie Lan listened to the analysis and explanations of her husband, she naturally felt that she used to be like everyone else, influenced by those voices on the Internet, and had a prejudice against Dong Jianhai.

People can not escape from doing wrong? Just recognize the mistake and correct it.

So Xie Lan changed her previous attitudes and opinions, and felt that it seemed like a good result for Dong Jianhai to continue coaching the Chinese team…

At least what she saw from this game, coupled with her husband’s analysis, made her think Dong Jianhai is a qualified national football coach.

So she asked Hu Lixin: “Huh, do you think Dong Jianhai will renew his contract with the Football Association this time?”

Hu Lixin shook his head: “Where do I know this?”

“Are you going to analyze it?”

Hu Lixin waved his hand: “There is no way to analyze, I am not an official of the Football Association. What do people think, where do I know? Besides, what can be said about the victory of this game? You are not an official of the Football Association, so don’t worry about it. Naturally, some people worry, we only need to know one result at that time…”

After the game with the Japanese team, the chefs of the national team prepared a sumptuous meal for the team at the hotel for dinner.

The players who returned to the hotel also took a shower in their rooms, changed their clothes, and went to the restaurant to enjoy the triumphant feast.

“Today’s ‘Celebration Banquet’ everyone eats openly, casually, and completely relax!” Hong Renjie, the team leader, waved his arms and said to all the players, with an uncontrollable smile on his face.

As the leader of the Chinese national team, he was under a lot of pressure after returning to the Asian Cup with a disgraced face after creating good results in the World Cup.

Now as the Chinese team defeated Japan and eliminated the defending champion, all the pressure was released.

So he specially arranged such a celebration banquet.

He also knows that the Asian Cup is not over yet, and if the Chinese team wants to say “gong”, there is no “gong”. But the historic defeat of the Japanese team is enough to give the above one confession.

“In addition, the leaders of the Foot Management Center also sent a congratulatory message… I guess, tomorrow everyone’s family will be able to see you on the news network!”

The cheers of the players sounded in the restaurant.

It is indeed a great achievement to be able to be on the news network.

The Chinese men’s national team has been able to appear on the news network only a few times. That is to enter the World Cup finals, and have been on the news several times during the World Cup.

“Okay, I won’t talk nonsense. Let’s have dinner!” Hong Renjie gave an order, and plates of exquisite and delicious dishes were put on the table. The restaurant was filled with the sound of tableware colliding and the laughter of the players.

And Hong Renjie walked to the head coach Dong Jianhai and whispered: “Old Dong, let’s talk…”

Dong Jianhai glanced at him, nodded, put down his chopsticks, got up and followed Hong Renjie out of the restaurant.

No one noticed this scene in the lively restaurant.

“I just talked to China on the phone. I have good news to tell you.” Hong Renjie stood in the corridor and said to Dong Jianhai.

It’s very quiet here, except for the foreign waiters who pass by occasionally, no one will bother them.

It is a good place to talk about things.

“What good news?” Dong Jianhai asked.

“It’s not so sure~www.wuxiax.com~ but the chances will be higher…” Hong Renjie smiled on his face, “That is, the above is considering giving you a contract extension. You can continue to coach the national team, Dong! ”

Dong Jianhai didn’t seem to be happy when he heard the news. He looked at the smiling Hong Renjie blankly, and calmly made the latter unable to laugh.

“What’s wrong?” Hong Renjie asked in surprise.

Dong Jianhai smiled and shook his head slightly: “I originally wanted to talk to you after the Asian Cup… After all, it feels inappropriate to respond now.”

Hong Renjie showed a puzzled expression: “What are you talking about?”

“I have decided, Lao Hong. No matter what the leaders think of my work, I will leave after taking the Asian Cup anyway.”

Hong Renjie stared at each other in a daze, as if he still hadn’t figured it out.

Seeing this, Dong Jianhai could only make his words clearer: “That is to say, I don’t plan to renew my contract with the national team.”
