Champion’s Heart

When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the match, the Chinese players and coaches waiting on the sidelines could not hide their excitement and rushed to the court to celebrate with the fans on the court.

Lippi went to shake hands with Spanish coach Bosque.

Bosque is still very demeanor, congratulations to the Chinese team's victory, and wish the Chinese team good luck in the next World Cup.

Then he shook his head and left the court.

The Spanish dynasty collapsed with the aging of the golden generation. This is a stage that any dynasty must go through.

It's just that they lost all three games and lost face in Spanish football. As the team's head coach, he must be very responsible.

Spain’s World Cup is over, and his troubles are just beginning...

After shaking hands with Bosque, Lippi turned to his team and participated in the celebration with the team.

Four years ago in South Africa, he and his Italian team tasted the bitterness of being eliminated from the defending championship group stage.

Today, four years later, he leads a young team and enjoys the joy of making history.

This is destiny, but that's it.

Zhou Yi did not celebrate with his players, but was pulled to the mixed area by reporters for the first time for an interview.

Everyone wants to hear Zhou Yi's view of this game and his prospects of reaching the knockout.

"... Glad we can beat Spain and qualify for the group." In front of the camera, Zhou Yi smiled. "This is the result of the unity of the whole team. Next we will prepare for the knockout. We will maintain this mental outlook... We will not knock out the round of the tournament. I have this confidence and we will strive to go further. From From now on, we are making history at every step... We hope to bring more joy to Chinese fans and make them happier longer..."

A reporter cared about Zhou Yi's own body. After recovering from the injury, he played for almost ninety minutes. Did he feel tired? Did he feel any reaction to the injured place?

Zhou Yi shook his head: "Fortunately, it is not very tired. There is no feeling of injury. In fact, it was not a serious injury, but the timing of the injury was very bad. The injury was half a month before the start of the World Cup. , I am afraid that this injury has no influence at all...I feel good now, and the previous injury will not affect my performance."

The Chinese reporter did not ask Zhou Yi to ask questions, and after thanking Zhou Yi, let him go back to celebrate the victory with his teammates. At this time, it is better to be with his teammates.

Zhou Yi ran back to his team. They were in front of the stands where Chinese fans gathered to thank the Chinese fans who came from afar. Zhou Yi also joined them.

Whether in the stands or under the stands, everyone is very happy, with the brightest smile on his face.

Although this Chinese team had a glorious performance in the Asian Cup before reaching the World Cup, and also had a highlight moment of defeating the Japanese team at home in the World Cup qualifier, but none of those moments can be compared with the present.

Because this is the main game of the World Cup, this is the moment when the Chinese team reached the knockout, this is the highlight of the Chinese men's football so far.

Seeing this scene, Liu Jianhong said with emotion: "How about football being the number one sport in the world? The first victory of the Chinese team in the history of the World Cup has attracted so many people’s attention and made so many people happy. It's almost like we won the gold medal in the Olympics, and this is just a victory in the game... During the World Cup in Brazil, the Chinese team will affect the hearts of many Chinese people. During this time, the whole society's keywords I’m afraid it’s the World Cup and the Chinese team..."

The Chinese team has historically won a match in the World Cup, and has historically scored in the World Cup knockout stage. This makes Chinese fans very excited, although it is already two o'clock in the morning of Beijing time. But many fans are still unsleeping, brushing all the news about the national team online, brushing the news after the game, brushing the latest news on Weibo, brushing the posts on the forum...

Everyone involved is like a carnival feast.

The next day, when everyone felt it, the carnival reached its climax.

A lot of people who are not fans at all have joined it.

Although not a fan or staying up late to watch the ball, the Chinese team plays such an important event in the World Cup, but it still needs attention.

I heard that the Chinese team actually defeated the defending champion Spain and got the group qualifying rights. They were all very surprised. After being surprised, they were excited.

In the past, every time there was a Chinese team game, the Internet was always full of ridicule and ridicule of the Chinese team.

But this time, such a paragraph is gone. It was replaced by various praises and praises from the Chinese team.

Previously, the official Weibo of the Chinese national team once posted a "sorry" Weibo after a defeat. Every time the Chinese team loses, this Weibo will be transferred out by netizens to whip the body.

This time, this old Weibo was turned over again, but the purpose was not to whip the corpse, but to forward various heart-warming replies: "No need to say sorry!"

"You guys are doing great, really!"

"Actually, bloggers can delete this one. Chinese football has already proved with practical actions that you don't have to bear the infamy all the time!"

"No need to apologize this time, it's our turn to apologize to you this time, to apologize for the ridicule and abuse that you had before!"

Traditional media also joined in. The headlines of the major newspapers this morning are almost all news that the Chinese team won the match with Spain and obtained the group’s qualifying rights. There are microblogs on the Internet that specifically collect these front-page headline pictures. This carnival helped.

Usually those Weibo accounts that cannot be played with the eight poles of football are also actively discussing topics related to the Chinese team at this time.

It's really all people involved.

As Liu Jianhong said, this is the charm of football, which is the best proof that football is still the world's first sport.

Even a single game in the Olympics can't be compared with football, and basketball, which is the second-largest ball, is not good.

Only football can truly attract such extensive attention and discussion. Whether it wins or fails, it can set off a storm of public opinion in this society.

In this relatively peaceful era, sports are actually a war without smoke, and a confrontation between countries. And football is the most extreme of these.

Every Olympic Games, everyone will be so concerned about the gold medal list, medal list, and about the competition in each game.

But after all, the Olympic Games is a comprehensive sports event and contains many events.

As for football, it is only a single event that can achieve influence comparable to that of the Olympic Games. This is not the meaning imposed on football by a certain politician, but naturally formed after a century of national liberation movement. With the colonization of Britain, football was pushed to the world, and it also witnessed the rise and independence of nations in South America, Africa and Asia. In this process, football often carried the trust of a nation and country to self-esteem and honor- These emerging countries are weak in the face of those veteran powers, but on the football field, the two sides are indeed fair, and even those backward countries are even better, so the victory of football is particularly important at that time.

There was a movie in the 1990s in China called "Kyoto Ballman", which told the story of the Yihetuan period in the late Qing dynasty.

Not to mention the emerging countries. After the great capitalist powers suffered a catastrophe, football can become a "good recipe" to remedy the national trauma and boost the morale of the people. After the Second World War in Germany, the entire country was almost scorched. The defeat of the World War also caused German nationals to be hit hard both physically and mentally. At this time, the "Berne Miracle" won by the German national team in the Swiss World Cup is very important~www.wuxiaspot.com~ That championship greatly inspired the German people's confidence in rebuilding the country and their homeland. This is the best example of football helping the country.

Of course, any sport has this effect.

But because of the strength of the empire, they were deadly all over the world. The sailors on their merchant ships and gunboats traveled all over the world. Naturally, they also spread modern football invented by Britain all over the world, so they and other sports By comparison, football was the most widely spread sport with the prestige of the British Empire. Naturally, football became the first sport in the world.

In a sense, football is even the universal language of this world. People in two countries with different languages ​​can’t talk and chat, but they can get together to play football. They all know the rules of this sport, and the emotions they feel from this sport are all the same.

When a person feels happy for the victory of the game, people in another country will not be surprised to see this scene and wonder why he is so happy, but will show a smile of understanding.

This is football.
