Fox in the Penalty Area

"There are still three hours before the start of the game, but the An Dong Provincial Sports Center is already crowded with people. This stadium has had such a grand scene many times, but today this time must be the most special!"

Wang Shanshan is standing in front of the camera lens, behind the outer wall of the Provincial Sports Center and the turbulent red crowd. She is holding a microphone with an excited smile on her face and is reporting the scene.

"Today for Jincheng fans, it is the first time after nearly a year to watch Hu Lai's game at this stadium. The number one striker Hu Lai who used to be a flash star after the transfer left, today is a Chinese national The team players return to the An Dong Provincial Sports Center... and these fans are here to welcome their heroes!"

In the camera, many fans are wearing red jerseys of the Chinese team and Shining Star. The numbers on their backs are all 14th.

This number was once cursed in Chinese football, but now no one has mentioned it anymore.

What is the cursed number?

The strongest striker in the history of Chinese football wears this number!

Some fans saw the camera lens, and shouted behind Wang Shanshan: "Hu Lai! Hu Lai!!!"

"Come on for the Chinese team!"

"Hung up!"

It's full of languages ​​from all over the world-it's not just Jincheng fans who came to this game, they just got close to the water.

There are also many fans from all over the country.

They not only came to see Hu Lai, but also came to cheer for the Chinese team, hoping to help the Chinese team defeat the South Korean team at home.

Not only to retain the hope of hitting the World Cup finals, but also to prevent the annoying South Koreans from celebrating in their home court.

The grievances between China, Japan and South Korea extend from other fields to football, and each has its own reasons not to lose to their opponents.

Between China and Japan, there is national hatred.

Between China and South Korea, it is purely the former "dad" who does not want to see the "son" crying in front of him now.

Occasionally there are a few Korean fans in the crowd, and they bury their heads low-key, not daring to stay in the crowd for a while, as if they were afraid that they would be caught and asked "What are you looking at" after just a glance.

Although they may all be able to attack on the Internet, in real life, on the ground of the Chinese team, they all know the truth of life with their tails sandwiched.

Zhao Kangming and Dong Wen appeared on the podium together, shaking hands with the general managers of other clubs one by one.

Not only fans from all over the country, but also the general managers of all Chinese Super League clubs across the country came from all over to watch the game. In a sense, it can be regarded as a "on-site supervising team"...

These intractable and disgraced general managers who fought in the Super League, looked like a family at this time, greeted each other with smiles, shook hands and shook hands and greeted each other.

"Oh, Mr. Wang, your Luo Kai has performed really well this season..."

"Where, I've been awarded the prize... Isn't Xia Xiaoyu, who shines like a star, progressing very quickly?"

"Hahaha!" Dong Wen and Wang Shoude looked at each other, then laughed at the same time.

Xue Chaoyu, the general manager of Dashun Golden Arrow, took Zhao Kangming's hand and shook it gently: "Guide Zhao, thank you so much... Chen Xingyi has made great progress in the two seasons of Flash Star. Coach Dillon praised him. You don’t deserve it. Your skill in training young players is really well-deserved!"

Zhao Kangming shook his head modestly: "Mr. Xue, you are serious. That is Chen Xingyi's willingness to work hard, otherwise it will be useless for any coach to come... I am also very happy that he can continue to improve after returning to Golden Arrow. See His performance in Golden Arrow, I have nothing to worry about..."

In addition to them, the general managers of other clubs also got together to chat with each other.

This may be the time for their rare intrigue to abandon their usual intrigue and be so united...

"Mr. Lu heard that your South China Tigers have prepared a huge winning prize for the international team this time?"

"Win glory for the country, the players are glorious, our club is also glorious. In fact, there are not many, just want to express the attitude of our South China Tigers club..."

"Mr Lu is right. It is not important to have more money and less money. The important thing is to have this attitude. Our club has also prepared a winning prize. As long as the national team can fight for South Korea, our Tamron international team will have the prize money. Whether it's on the court or not!"

"Mr. Lin is particular!" Someone gave a thumbs up.

When the players from both sides came out of the locker room to warm up, the entire stadium was almost full.

Except for the part of the stand area that must be set aside as a safe space, the stadium is completely covered in red.

The national team's game management is stricter than that of the Chinese Super League, so it is destined to be impossible to reproduce the last round of the Chinese Super League last year.

But even so, this scene is amazing enough.

A huge five-star red flag spreads down from the top of the stadium stand, occupying the entire south stand.

Just facing the goal of the Korean players warming up.

They are warming up under this huge Chinese flag, and they don't even need to deliberately look up to feel the existence of this flag in all directions.

This flag, passed by all the fans in the stands, began to "flow" along the stands.

During this process, songs were played on the live broadcast.

Before each game, whether it is a national team game or a club game, there is a link to play songs, in order to stir up the atmosphere and warm up the fans.

Most of the time, the songs that are played on the stadium are popular songs, because these songs have a high degree of vocalization, and everyone can hum along with the characteristics of two sentences, which is convenient to create a chorus effect.

Since we want to warm up the atmosphere, of course we can't play niche songs, even if the artistic achievement is high, it will be useless. After all, everyone is not here to enjoy the concert.

But today, the broadcast of the Andong Provincial Sports Center is not a pop song, but it is better than a pop song.

Because this song is probably more popular than any current popular song.

Amidst the music, the fans sang loudly: "My country and me! There can be no separation for a moment——!!!"

"No matter where I go, there is a hymn out of it!!!"

With the fans singing in unison, the huge five-star red flag slowly floated across the stands and circled the stadium, looking like it was really flying in the air.

The VIPs on the rostrum took out their mobile phones, took photos or videos, and recorded this shocking scene.

In the singing, the players on both sides who were warming up couldn't help being attracted.

Assistant coach Li Zhifei yelled: "Don't be distracted! Warm up seriously!"

The players of the Chinese team bowed their heads and continued to warm up. But deep in their hearts, emotions are already growing and spreading, impacting their hearts, as if a seed is sprouting.

For the South Korean players, their coaching staff is also loudly reminding the players not to be disturbed and to focus on warming up.

But with such a loud singing and such a big red flag all around them, can you not hear it if you don't listen, or you can't see it if you don't see it?

They warmed up with thunderous singing, but they felt like they were training in the pouring rain. After a long time of training, their bodies were not warm at all, but the more they practiced, the colder...

Park Guixian cursed in his heart.

This feeling reminded him of the AFC Champions League group match in March last year.

The stand where Xie Lan and Hu Lixin are located is just above the goal of the Korean team's warm-up side, and the position is very good.

She sang loudly in the crowd.

I hope I can reach the ears of the Korean players as much as possible.

Give them a good start.

Before the game, the official social network account of the South Korean media posted a cartoon. In the cartoon, players from the Chinese team stood on both sides of the center line, applauding and welcoming the South Korean team.

The accompanying text said: "It is recommended that the AFC promote this ceremony. After all, the teams qualifying for the World Cup are going to win glory for Asia. It is natural to show respect to the qualifying teams in this way!"

This cartoon has attracted the attention and repost of many people on Korean social media. Many fans have reposted it and @亚足联, expressing their suggestions to them. This incident was also spread to the Internet in China.

Of course, the AFC will not respond to such boring suggestions. The Korean media and fans are actually just to disgust the Chinese fans.

Xie Lan belongs to the disgusting person.

Because her son is the first in the queue of Chinese players to welcome him. He is also the most serious and most realistic portrayed by the cartoonist. It is known to be Hu Lai at first glance.

In addition, Hu Lai in the comics smiled particularly flatteringly when facing the South Korean players who entered the field with their heads upright, a full-fledged clown role.

This makes Xie Lan particularly upset.

She came to watch the game today, one is to visit her son, and the other is to personally greet the eighteenth generation of Korean ancestors.

After the song "Me and My Motherland" was sung, the next song "Red Flag Fluttering" was played on the stadium radio.

Xie Lan took advantage of the gap between the two songs, put a throat lozenge into her mouth, and continued to sing along:

"That is a rainbow picked from the rising sun, no one does not love your color--"

After the warm-up, the players on both sides left the court and returned to the locker room.

Many Korean players breathed a sigh of relief-during their warm-up process, Chinese fans kept singing, one after another, it was like a large-scale singing competition.

Park Guixian really replaced Park Chuntae in this game and became the starter. But during the whole warm-up, he didn't care about being happy for his starting game. On the contrary, the atmosphere at the scene brought him many bad memories.

Now that the door is closed, he can't hear the noise outside, and he settles down again.

At the same time, I kept hinting to myself:

This is not that game, and I am not who I was when I was!

I must seize this opportunity... Park Guixian, you can!

Next year's World Cup, you will surprise the world!

※※※

Shi Wuyin said to his players in the home team's locker room: "I don't need me to repeatedly emphasize how important this game is, right? I don't need me to mobilize you before the battle, right? You believe it when you warm up. You should have seen the national flag, and you know what it means. Just think about how you felt when you saw this scene, and then bring that feeling to the court to fight the South Korean team!"

Many people followed Shi Wuyin's words and recalled the scene in the warm-up just now.

When the national flag floated slowly in front of them, many people were so shocked that they almost forgot to warm up.

How do you feel?

I just want to go up and die right now!

"Remember this is our home court, so we have to play our aura from the beginning of the game! Proactively press up. Don't be afraid of losing the ball. It is them who should be afraid of losing the ball! If we are able to advance the ball, we can completely disrupt their pre-match arrangements and plans. Then...they will be arrogant in the singing of our fans! Regarding this, you must trust the fans here."

Everyone nodded unanimously. When warming up, they felt that they had listened to a red song concert.

To say that the fans of this game are their biggest backers, the real twelfth person on the field, no one doubts the Chinese nationals.

In fact, there are many football stadiums in domestic cities that can accommodate 60,000 people, but there are not many games that can fully seat 60,000 people.

Today, the stands of the Andong Provincial Sports Center are all red.

This is how confident they are with the South Korean team today!

Three days in a row, we will ask everyone for a monthly pass!
