Nine and a half

Chapter 217: The final opponent is the South Korean team (Chinese national football team plot, daily transition)

"Eleven years of waiting."

"The Chinese team has once again made it to the Asian Cup finals."

"Compared with the golden generation in 2004 led by Sun Jihai, Shao Jiayi, Li Jinyu, Li Weifeng and others, our current play is not at all flashy. But this is a very high-spirited Chinese team."

"Beckenbauer of Germany, Maradona of Argentina, Baggio of Italy, Gao Qi of China!"

"A tiny ray of light becomes a torch, and picking up the light builds a dream."

"Chinese football is on the right path to realizing its dream!"

The camera cuts back to the studio.

The commentator and coach Zhang sighed.

It has been incredible to witness the Chinese national football team’s journey to the Asian Cup during this period.

"The Chinese national football team has a good chance of winning the championship."

"I found a problem. As long as the opponent's midfielders and backfielders are at the level of the K League, Australia League One or the Chinese Super League, Gao Qi can hardly be restricted. It is difficult for two people to stop him."

"Crush the opponent!"

Perrin raised his fists high and rushed onto the field excitedly.

The special leather shoes made a squeaking sound as they stepped on the wet rye grass.

Assistant Instructor Li and the staff followed closely behind.

Translator Zhao took the red flag handed down from the stands carefully, respectfully and solemnly, and followed the crowd happily.

"Gao Qi!"

"Gao Qi, please lead us to defeat the Koreans and win the Asian Cup!"

All media outlets set up their cameras and cameras.

Click!

The red flag fluttered in the wind, and China No. 9 was held high.

"The Hero of Chinese Football."

The revelry subsided.

Assistant coach Li comforted his old teammate from Everton - Cahill.

Australia's forward line is in a period of transition.

As a result, the 36-year-old Cahill is still a starter.

"Lee, my old mate, do you think Australia will produce a player like Gao in the future?"

"Sorry, Chinese football needs more height."

The two hugged each other and laughed.

not far away.

The Chinese coaching staff members were enjoying the sea breeze, gradually discarding all messy thoughts, and secretly made up their minds: This might be the best era for Chinese football. If they can't win the championship even with players like Gao Qi, then what's the difference between themselves and the German underdog team during Beckenbauer's time?
Public mixed interview area.

Gao Qi took a photo with the mascot wombat - Notek.

Then the interview began.

He recalled Morata's serious expression and subconsciously covered his face with his hands.

"The Chinese national football team is not just my team."

"My teammates, coaching staff, medical staff, and support staff all worked hard."

"I will bring the championship trophy back to China."

clap clap clap!
The applause lasted for a long time.

All Chinese media and fans are looking forward to Gao Qi winning the AFC Champions League and creating history for Chinese football.

The Eternal City Far Away.

Totti, De Rossi and others watched the entire live broadcast of the Asian Cup semi-final.

"If Gao can win the Asian Cup, it will fill the honor gap in his national team career."

"My feeling after watching the game is that Morata is a perfect striker partner for Gao." Dzeko couldn't help but interrupt: "If Bosnia and Herzegovina meets the Chinese team in the World Cup, our defense may not be able to withstand Gao."

Everyone laughed.

Nainggolan couldn't help but complain: "First of all, Bosnia and Herzegovina has to enter the World Cup, and China also has to enter the World Cup. Then according to the final round of the team division, the probability of you two meeting is too small!"

Roma has had a good record this season. The young players are gradually growing, the veterans are in stable condition, and the team occupies second place in the Serie A standings.

《Asian Cup final matchup is announced, China VS South Korea! 》

"Totti: The entire Apennine Peninsula will cheer for Gao."

"FIFA's official website posted a message congratulating the Chinese team for reaching the finals, and wishing the Chinese team to be able to enter the World Cup finals in the future."

"South Korean fans: Gao Qi is nothing special, our players will make him suffer."

"The ratings of this Asian Cup broke historical records."

"The ever-increasing commercial value, the first person in the sports world: Gao Qi."

Each piece of news sparked discussion among the general public of the Internet.

Gao Qi’s photos are constantly rotating on the homepages of major sports websites.

The popularity of superstars playing for their country reached its peak.

[I bought an authentic jersey for the first time in my life, No. 9 of China! ]

[Who cares? The Korean tactics can restrain Perrin, but not Gao Qi.]

The next day.

Deakin, south of Canberra.

Many Korean tourists gathered on the shore of Lake Burley Griffin, taking pictures of Korean football stars who were in open training through the green barbed wire.

"Son Heung-min, help me clean my sneakers. Why are you so slow? You need to learn to respect your seniors, okay?"

"Okay, senior!"

"Don't think that playing in the Bundesliga is amazing. Seniors are seniors!"

Son Heung-min ran to the sidelines happily.

He was bullied by his teammates in the Bundesliga, and when he returned to the national team he had to endure obedience tests from his "seniors".

of course.

Life doesn't always have to be bitter.

Outside the barbed wire, a group of female band members held up banners and cheered.

These are the sources of happiness for Korean little Sun.

South Korea's head coach, Stielike, sat on the bench in a daze.

He was a famous German football star in the 70s and 80s, one of those people who was not very lucky.

"Gao's changes to the Chinese national team reminded me of Beckenbauer."

Ji Chengyong was watching the video of the game carefully. When he heard this, he suddenly remembered something: "Boss, you and Beckenbauer lived in the same era, but you didn't win the World Cup?"

"Don't mention these past events."

Stielike played football well when he was young and was hailed as the strongest German in the history of Real Madrid. The media often joked: This guy missed his best teammate - Beckenbauer, and also missed the best coach - Beckenbauer.

because.

Beckenbauer won the World Cup as a player and again as a head coach.

at the same time.

Gao Qi was also at the national football team base, watching the South Korean team's game videos carefully.

Perrin flicked the small magnetic flag.

Translator Zhao carefully conveyed:
"The South Korean team has great defense and has not conceded a single goal in this Asian Cup!"

"They beat Australia in the group stage and Iraq in the semi-finals!"

"Stielike is very stable. Even when facing teams like Oman and Kuwait, they still insist on defensive counterattacks."

"But the Korean team's defensive counterattack is a little different. The center forward, Lee Jung-hyeok, is more like a false nine!"
