Chapter 211 This battle cannot be lost (Chinese national football team plot, daily transition)

There are four days left until the knockout rounds.

The Football Association specially arranged two exclusive interviews.

Sydney, temporary base of the national team.

Perrin was full of confidence when facing the camera.

"We will suppress the Japanese team."

The host was very surprised and continued to ask: "Has our overall strength surpassed that of the Japanese team?"

"Yes."

Perrin answered decisively: "The Japanese team is nothing to be afraid of. We will play with the momentum of the Chinese team."

There is confidence in this statement. The Japanese team fielded all substitutes in the three group matches, and it is very likely that they will not field overseas stars such as Honda Keisuke, Kagawa Shinji, and Nagatomo Yuto in the knockout rounds.

The Chinese team won three consecutive group matches, all by a large margin, and the media and public opinion were extremely excited.

Playing against a Japanese substitute lineup, who dares to say something discouraging to spoil the fun?
Japanese team's temporary base.

The ocean breeze was very quiet, so quiet that the only sound you could hear was the sound of the ball hitting the ground.

Beep!
A sharp whistle interrupted everything.

The little ones quickly trotted together.

Head coach Aguirre had a serious expression.

"The Chinese team with Gao Sang is a strong and terrifying team."

"Gao-san will give us a suffocating feeling during the game!"

"The Japanese team must send out all their main players! With a determination to win, defeat the strong enemy!"

"Hi!!!"

The players' eyes were fanatical.

Shinji Kagawa inadvertently recalled the clips in the cartoon "Captain Tsubasa", the extremely powerful Chinese team, and the man called the Dragon God.

My fists clenched involuntarily.

My body was shaking with excitement.

"Honda-kun, we are lucky to be in the same era as an opponent like Taka-san!"

"Ok!"

Honda Keisuke's eyes were firm: "Defeating Gaosan is the mission of our generation."

According to the original plan, the overseas stars were just going through the motions in the Asian Cup, giving more playing opportunities to the new generation of players and gradually completing the transition from old to new in the next few years. But Gao Qi disrupted their plans.

The war is imminent.

Various media outlets have started to warm up.

"The head coach of the Chinese national football team: We cannot lose this battle."

"Japanese coach: All main players will play."

"The real Asian Cup final: China vs. Japan."

Balotelli: Australia can participate in the Asian Cup, why can't Italy?

sunset.

Gao Qi slowly walked down the training ground and took the towel handed to him by Assistant Coach Li.

An official from the Football Association looked at his watch and said cautiously, "You are the name card of Chinese football. The organization intends to have you accept a ten-minute interview with the international media. There is absolutely no other activity scheduled!"

After getting permission.

The camera was moved, the blue glare in the lens suddenly disappeared, and the figure of China No. 9 became clearer and clearer.

A foreign reporter asked: "Gao, congratulations on leading the Chinese team to the knockout stage of the Asian Cup. You have shown a strong dominance on the stage of international cup competitions. Have you ever thought: If you had agreed to naturalize in Italy, your career achievements would have been higher?"

The same question was also asked to Bale, Lewandowski and Alaba.
Gao Qi shook his head without hesitation: "I won't think about that kind of question. I am Chinese."

Hear this answer.

Assistant Professor Li and Translator Zhao were suddenly shocked, and their cheeks glowed red under the setting sun.

"The knockout rounds are about to begin, and the Chinese team will face a strong opponent. Do you have anything to say?"

"I will beat Japan."

A few days later.

Sydney Stadium. Security personnel were on high alert, fearing that a conflict might break out between fans of both sides.

In the stands that accommodated 100,000 spectators, a sea of ​​red continued to surge.

Red flags are waving.

The fans of the day waved flags with the feathers of the Three-legged Crow printed on them, trying to fight against the red tide with their insignificant voices.

"Zhuangdianertai! Zhuangdianertai! Good evening, audience friends."

"Now live for you is the 2015 Asian Cup quarter-finals."

"China versus Japan."

"I hope the young men of the national football team can play with vigor and fighting spirit."

"One fan submitted an article, saying: After seeing the performance of the Chinese national football team in this Asian Cup, I finally understand what my girlfriend meant by attitude."

Player tunnel.

"Gao-san!"

"Gao-san!"

Chirping Japanese.

The young people in line bowed respectfully to Gao Qi.

"The Japanese team will do their best! Please give us your guidance!"

Nagatomo Yuto hesitated for a moment and greeted him in Italian: "Gao, you are the pride of Asian football. We will not let you down in the glory you left in the top five leagues."

The Chinese players were a little confused: This scene felt like watching the Fist of Fury movie, with a large group of ordinary warriors saluting Chen Zhen.

Gao Qi turned around and asked in confusion: "What glory?"

Nagatomo Yuto raised his head, and was suddenly blinded by the light coming from the exit of the passage.

Followed by.

He saw a patch of red outside the passage.

After a while.

The referee team led the players from both teams out of the tunnel.

The sound of drums was loud.

The fans expressed their inner emotions excitedly.

The moment Gao Qi stepped onto the green field, the system prompt sounded quietly.

[Ding! National team special mission triggered: Fanatical Blue Warrior! ]

[Task Introduction: You are about to face the most difficult battle in your career. Football is a team sport, and no one can break this rule. Romain Rolland once said that there is only one true heroism in the world, and that is to recognize the truth of life and still love it.]

[Mission Reward: Beckenbauer Unyielding Will. ]

"The following introduces you to the starting lineups of both sides."

"The Chinese team's formation is 4-2-3-1!"

"Goalkeeper: Wang Dalei."

"Defenders: Jiang Zhipeng, Ren Hang, Zhang Linpeng, Zhang Chengdong."

"Central midfielder: Endo Yasuhito, Honda Keisuke, Kagawa Shinji, Inui Takashi."

"Single striker: Shinji Okazaki."

"Sure enough, the Japanese team did not continue to train, but instead sent out all the main players who studied abroad. Many players in the starting lineup are the main players or even the core players in the top five European leagues."

“But we have Gao Qi.”
