Prominence in Football Community

Gao Zheng's goal at the end of the first half almost broke the mentality of the Qatari players.

If it weren't for the halftime break, many of them might not have the heart to play.

Now there are at least fifteen minutes for them to calm down, listen to the head coach to readjust, inspire their fighting spirit, and let their panicked hearts settle down.

However, the halftime break of the Chinese team can also be adjusted.

During the intermission, Peilan criticized the performance of other players except Gao Zheng: "...Even if we have advanced to the top 12 in advance, I believe that fans all over China do not want to see you like this." Performance! I let you play because I hope you will cherish every minute of the game, not to let you sleepwalk on it! If you don’t care about this chance to play, then I promise that after entering the top twelve, I will not send you I won’t give you any chance to play in the national team, you don’t want to play anyway!”

These words were so serious that the Chinese players in the locker room did not dare to take a breath, and the atmosphere was a bit depressed.

If you only look at this scene, it will definitely surprise outsiders. The current score of the game is that the Chinese team leads Qatar 2:0-if it is the other way around, it may be more convincing...

After being severely reprimanded by Pei Lan, the performance of the Chinese team in the second half has indeed improved, and they are no longer as careless as in the first half.

So the Qatari players, who had finally adjusted their mentality during the halftime break, found that the Chinese team was so motivated that they seemed to be fighting against them...

Many Qatari players were crying: Didn't you all advance to the top 12 ahead of schedule? And this game is two goals ahead of us, what are you doing so desperately? Even if you win us by five goals or ten goals, what's the point? !

Carreno no longer stands on the sidelines to supervise the battle, he sits on the coach's bench, feeling ashamed.

He still pins his hope of advancing to the top twelve on the fact that the other three teams cannot win at the same time, at least the probability of scoring in this way is higher. Now it is basically impossible to make a comeback in the away game...

Although the performance of the Chinese team improved in the second half, Perrin replaced Gao Zheng early in the 63rd minute, so the Chinese team did not score again until the end of the game.

The game ended with a score of 2:0.

Not scoring any more goals does not mean that the players of the Chinese team did not perform well.

But when Gao Zheng and Wu Lei were not on the court, the Chinese team once again fell into the dilemma of "weak front".

In the second half, the Chinese team can be said to have controlled the midfield and created many scoring opportunities, but no one was able to grasp them.

CCTV commentator He Ping euphemistically expressed his concerns about this offensive lineup going to the top twelve. Once something happens to Gao Zheng, the Chinese team's scoring ability will be worrying...

It's just that on this happy day, he didn't say too much, so as not to spoil everyone's mood, and no one will appreciate it.

He believes that Perrin's coaching staff must also be aware of this problem and will make improvements in the future.

Now, let's celebrate first.

At the end of the game, he shouted excitedly: "The game is over! The Chinese team defeated Qatar 2-0 at home and advanced to the next stage of qualifiers, which is the top twelve! The national football team has not been able to reach the top 12 for 14 years. The final stage of the qualifiers is here! The long road is as long as iron, and now we are going to start from the beginning! Now, we are one step closer to the World Cup in Russia!"

In the entire land of China, countless Chinese fans are cheering and celebrating, and they are full of all kinds of good expectations and longings for the top twelve games.

On the court, Gao Zheng and his teammates are also celebrating this historic moment. The camera lens of the TV broadcast was firmly aimed at him, paying attention to every hug and high five between him and his teammates.

As for Qatar, no one paid attention at all, and no one even knew when they left...

The Qatari fans in the stands were also completely removed.

In the end, only the Chinese fans were left reluctant to leave. The players of the Chinese team also walked around the field hand in hand, waving and applauding to the national football fans in the stands, thanking them for their unremitting support.

They also played the Viking battle cry game with the Chinese fans in the stands, clapping together with the roar, the rhythm became faster and faster, and finally formed continuous applause.

Such a harmonious and friendly scene is really rare in Chinese football. The last time may have been in the Asian Cup in Australia in early 2015...

"It's cool, I'll just wait and see who will be in the same group as the top 12 draw..." Xiao Yingying said happily in front of the TV.

At this moment, she saw that Sister Feng next to her opened her mouth as if she was about to speak, so she quickly covered Sister Feng's mouth: "Sister Feng, stop talking! You crow mouth, don't mess with the Chinese team anymore Sign it! Let me tell you, I won’t say anything if Atletico Madrid draws the lottery. If you get eliminated, you will be eliminated. I will be unhappy for one day at most. But if the Chinese team cannot enter the World Cup, I will be unhappy for two years!”

Feng Shiyao blinked, and after Xiao Yingying let go of her hand, she asked, "Why two years?"

"I've been unhappy until the end of the World Cup in Russia!"

"Are you a Scorpio! Do you hold grudges so much?"

"It has nothing to do with constellations, Sister Feng. When we watch the World Cup, how uncomfortable does it look without the Chinese team? When the time comes to see things and think about others, when you think of the Chinese team's failure to qualify for the World Cup, don't all the old and new grudges come out?"

Seeing what Xiao Yingying said was so scary, Feng Shiyao quickly raised her hands up as a sign of surrender: "Don't worry, I don't predict the result of the lottery."

In fact, she is still a fake fan in essence, but she is not the kind of fake fan who does not watch football at all and only watches the World Cup every four years. On the contrary, she usually watches Atletico Madrid almost every game.

It's just that she is a fake fan of Gao Zheng. If there is no Gao Zheng in the World Cup, she won't be interested no matter how lively it is.

So she also hopes that Gao Zheng and the Chinese team can reach the World Cup finals.

"By the way, when is the draw?" She asked casually.

"Why?" Xiao Yingying immediately looked at her warily.

Feng Shiyao couldn't laugh or cry: "I really don't predict, I just want to know when the result will come out."

"April 12th." Xiao Yingying said now.

"It's been a few days..."

"I can't wait to draw lots tomorrow. There is always a big stone weighing on my heart. It feels really uncomfortable." Xiao Yingying murmured.

Feng Shiyao smiled: "Then you can't delay work."

"Don't worry, Sister Feng, I can handle it clearly!"

Feng Shiyao took out her mobile phone and looked at the calendar. On April 12, she added an event reminder on it, reminding her to pay attention to the results of the draw for the top 12 groups.
