Chapter 230 The Asian Cup opens

Because there is no media entry in the game against Iraq, and there is no video expansion, on the domestic Internet, all the news about this game is only a short 1,000-word text report, and there is not even a picture...

The text content of this thousand words is the same among all media, because the source is the same, and it is written by the press officer of the Chinese national team.

Everyone can't see much from the words of this thousand words, especially whether the cooperation between other Chinese players and Glory has become tacit, and is the Chinese team still like a mess in the offense?

These issues that Chinese media and fans are most concerned about are not mentioned in the text and cannot be seen at all.

No matter how much Chinese media research it, they cannot find it.

Because the manuscript given by others has been processed, they will naturally not be allowed to obtain any information from it.

After the game against Iraq, the Chinese team will continue their closed training |

The next time I appear in front of everyone, it will be the first game of the Asian Cup group stage.

The Chinese team will challenge Kuwait.

This may be the weakest team in this group.

The Chinese team must defeat Kuwait in order to maintain hope of qualifying in the group.

The last five days of training丨Time passed quickly in the heavy daily training tasks. Although the Chinese team players have been in Qatar for many days, no one has the opportunity to go shopping and buy some luxury goods that are cheaper than domestic to make souvenirs.

They even met Doha, the capital of Qatar, only once in the car, when they were going to the training ground from the airport.

Now that the training camp is over, the Chinese team has turned to their hotel in Doha, where three other teams of the same group are also present. The players and coaches of the four teams will look up at any time.

When the Chinese team's bus stopped at the hotel gate, reporters had gathered there.

The Chinese team with glory is not only the team with the largest Asian Cup stars, but also the most mysterious team. They have come to Qatar since December 29, but they are closed all the way. No media can take pictures of their training, and no one can interview their head coach.

Even if the Chinese team players did not talk much, they were obviously banned.

No one knows the specific preparations for this team, nor do they know how strong this team is.

It's not wrong to say that they are the most mysterious team, they are even more mysterious than the North Korean team.

※※※

On January 7th, the last night before the official game, Gao Hongbo held a tactical meeting in the hotel's small conference room, and all the coaches and players of the team were to participate.

This is also the last mobilization meeting before the game.

The leader of the Chinese national team first made an inspiring speech, calling on everyone to put down their burdens, express their level and morale, and show the results of their daily training on the court, to win glory for the country. Now there are hundreds of millions of fans in China watching them...

Those who said they wanted to put down their burdens and pressure before were all adding pressure to the players of the national team.

Next, Gao Hongbo began to use tactics. He only talked about tactics and didn't talk about anything else. Some of them were already said by the team leader. If he said it again, the players would be even more nervous.

Let’s talk about how the Chinese team will play the first game between Kuwait.

This tactic is something that everyone has practiced repeatedly in the past week.

That is, something that allows glory to merge with other players.

But to be honest, Gao Hongbo has no confidence.

The training has ended and the players have improved to varying degrees, but they are still far from Gao Hongbo's requirements.

If you insist on playing like this, it may be okay to hit Kuwait, but if you meet the host Qatar later, it will be dangerous.

However, Gao Hongbo had no other choice, he could only take one step and think about it.

The players were a little impatient to want the Asian Cup to start soon.

They have been practicing hard for so long just to be able to show it in the competition. Without the competition, they will never know whether their training will be effective or how much they have improved.

Just like the game with Iraq, without this game, the players of the national team would be like being punished. However, after defeating the defending champion in the game, the players of the Chinese national team felt the effect of training. In the next few days of training, everyone was very motivated and their training attitude became more positive.

The group match between the Chinese team and Kuwait started at 9:15 pm on January 8, Beijing time. Before that, from the afternoon, China's domestic CCTV had already started to broadcast various live events in the front, including interviews from Chinese fans, scenes of the Chinese team staying in the hotel, and interactive programs from the guests in front.

From lunch, CCTV Sports Channel became the Asian Cup Channel.

Without glory, Chinese media and fans may not have such great expectations for this Asian Cup.

Now everyone comes for glory.

In addition, CCTV also interviewed several foreign fans wearing No. 10 jerseys at Manchester City on the streets of Doha.

They are also here to cheer for the Chinese team, or to be precise, to Rongguang.

"We are UAE fans, we are all Rong's hardcore fans, Rong is in Manchester City, we support Manchester City, and now he is in the Chinese team, so we support the Chinese team and cheer for the Chinese team."

The female CCTV reporters interviewed were amused by these foreigners.

Rongguang also brought such foreign fans to the Chinese team, which was something that everyone had never expected before.

However, these three are definitely not real Manchester City fans, they are Glory fans. Real Manchester City fans will never want China to win. It is best if the Chinese team loses in this first game.

During this period, Manchester City defeated Newcastle United away in the 19th round of the league. They launched a fierce attack with a goal first, and finally completed the reversal with Ibrahimovic's double score and Sneijder's goal.

Next, Manchester City defeated Aston Villa 40 at home in the 20th round of the league. Ibrahimovic still performed well.

However, in the 21st round of the league on January 1, Manchester City was tied by the promoted player Blackpool at home and did not continue to win.

In the 22nd round of the league, the focus battle, Manchester City challenged Arsenal away.

This game is very important. Even Rongguang took an hour and a half to watch the game after training.

Just five minutes into the game, Arsenal took the lead with Van Persie's goal. The momentum of Emirates Stadium can be felt even in front of the TV, like a storm.

The competition in the following game became increasingly fierce.

In order to score another goal, Arsenal is also very active in the game to secure the victory.

The same is true for Manchester City, but their purpose is to not lose.

In the 82nd minute, Ibrahimovic broke out. He shot an angry shot outside the penalty area. The football passed through the players of both sides in the penalty area and drilled into the goal against the turf.

At that moment, Rongguang, who was in front of the TV, couldn't help but clench his fists and waved his arms.

The subsequent fight between the two sides had already left the scope of football matches. In the 89th minute, the players of both sides had a dispute during the game. Arsenal's full-back Sarnia and Manchester City's full-back Sabaretta were both sent off by red cards because of a big fight.

This further exacerbated the tension of the game.

Fortunately, Manchester City defended the draw in the end and did not allow Arsenal to defeat Manchester City at their home court.

Manchester City's unbeaten league has reached 37 games.

There are only thirteen games left to be unbeaten in the league in fifty games.

Let's turn our attention back to the Asian Cup.

After lunch and a short rest, all the Chinese team players boarded the bus and rushed to the Algalaf Stadium. A large number of Chinese fans saw them off outside the hotel.

When the Chinese team players got on the bus, there was a huge cheer.

The Chinese team players waved goodbye to the fans.

The atmosphere is still good. Although many people in this team are participating in the Asian Cup for the first time, they will inevitably be nervous, but the tension is not as high as everyone thought before.

Because there is still glory sitting in this car.

In training, glory is the demon that completely abuses their bodies and spirits.

But in the game, everyone believed that Glory Speech turned into a demon who completely defeated his opponent.

When both players arrived at the stadium and started to warm up, fans had already begun to be arranged to enter the stadium.

Although Kuwait is closer to Qatar, judging from the distribution of fans in the stands, it is more like the home court of the Chinese team. Chinese fans wearing red Chinese team jerseys and waving five-star red flags can be seen everywhere.

In comparison, Kuwait fans wearing blue Kuwait jerseys are less active.

Fighting with Rongguang made Kuwait fans not very optimistic about the fate of their team.

Glory is one of the top players in football today, and only Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo can compete with him.

Such people are definitely not something that Kuwaiti players can compete with.

Kuwait fans were obviously frightened by their glorious fame.

Especially after they saw the Chinese team's warm-up, Rongguang received a ball kicked by his assistant coach outside the penalty area. He did not stop the ball, but directly shot the ball.

The football flew towards the goal. Although the Chinese team's main goalkeeper Yang Zhi took off and tried his best to stretch his arms, he still couldn't save the ball. Because the ball kicked by Rong Guang drilled directly into the goal post and the crossbar.

Theoretically absolute dead corner

World Wave

If this is a scene that happened in the game, can Kuwait goalkeeper Nawaf Hallidi hold this kick?

Kuwait fans were silent...

Not only them, but also the Kuwait players who warmed up in the other half were silent.
