Starting with playing defensive midfield for Evergrande

Chapter 80 (Two-in-one chapter): The Workers' Stadium is boiling over when everything is covered in red!
Workers' Stadium in Beijing.

When Su Hao successfully defended Sneijder in a 1v1 situation and made the steal, the more than 50,000 fans in the Workers' Stadium stands immediately erupted in excited cheers.

Unfortunately, for today's Chinese football fans, a team like the Netherlands is simply not on the same level as their own team.

It was already quite good to keep the goal intact for ten minutes, but who would have thought that in their first encounter, Su Hao would unexpectedly gain a slight advantage?
On the field!
After making the interception, Su Hao steadily controlled the ball at his feet, while Sneijder, seemingly feeling that he had lost face, quickly rushed to Su Hao's side after getting up.

Sneijder was thinking of taking it back, but Su Hao didn't give him the chance at all.

Just as Sneijder and De Jong were both pressing towards him, Su Hao quickly and diagonally pushed the ball to the feet of the unmarked Qin Sheng.

"Give it to the right!"

As he handed the ball over, Su Hao didn't forget to give his old Qin a few instructions.

Upon hearing Su Hao's instructions, Qin Sheng naturally stepped aside without hesitation and passed the ball to the right wing, following Su Hao's arrangement.

A midfielder!
His greatest contribution may not be dribbling past opponents or scoring goals with powerful long-range shots.

His most important role is to be the metronome for the entire team.

Just like Su Hao at this moment.

Given the vastly different level of skill, Su Hao abandoned his usual tactics from the Chinese Super League or the AFC Champions League, and did not allow his teammates to engage in 1v1 battles with the Dutch players.

Instead, they kept passing the ball to the areas where the defense was most relaxed.

Hao Junmin on the right wing!

This was because De Jong came to help defend him, which created the space for him.

"That foot transfer was perfectly reasonable!"

"Su Hao is following up in the middle lane!"

"Hao Junmin quickly moved down the wing."

"Tyndali is coming up! Hao Junmin is going to face Tyndali head-on!"

"Tyndali, born in 1985, is 28 years old this year and plays for Swansea City in the Premier League!"

"Let's see now."

Huang Jianxiang, who was in the commentary booth, was wondering if Hao Junmin could get past Tiendali, the Swansea side road's iron gate.

Hao Junmin, who was making a quick run forward, suddenly stopped and passed the ball back to Su Hao at Su Hao's call on the field.

If we're talking about playing in the AFC Champions League or the Chinese Super League on a regular basis...

Knowing that Su Hao has a powerful long-range shot, his opponents would definitely arrange for someone to specifically guard against it at this moment.

But the Dutch team is different!

People come to China to make money and for tourism.

They did create travel guides, but what they did was focus on tourist attractions and what to dip Peking duck in for the best flavor.

As for how the Chinese team should deal with it
Even Van Gaal thought that you could just kick around blindly!
As a result, Su Hao received Hao Junmin's cross pass directly from his most comfortable position!

After receiving the ball!
Meanwhile, the Dutch were still slowly setting up their defensive lines to prevent him from making a through pass.

Su Hao, of course, went all out and raised his taut right leg high.

"boom!!!"

As Su Hao swung his right leg down rapidly, the football under his feet deformed severely and then shot up towards the Dutch goal.

In front of the Dutch team's goal.

Ajax goalkeeper Vermeer is starting to panic.

Although he had been focusing on the number 10 of the Chinese team ever since Su Hao got the ball, he really didn't expect Su Hao to shoot directly from that position.

So, his position is a bit awkwardly too far forward at this moment.

However, being the goalkeeper for the Dutch national team, he quickly calculated the approximate location of Su Hao's powerful shot.

Vermeer immediately moved his feet and lunged forward with all his might towards the direction of Su Hao's shot.

only!

To Vermeer's despair, despite his best efforts, he couldn't touch the rapidly approaching football!
"Su Hao!"

"Kick it directly!"

"This ball floats."

On the commentary panel!

As Su Hao unleashed his powerful shot, Lao Huang instinctively stood up, ready to celebrate the goal.

Not only Huang Jianxiang, but also the more than 50,000 Chinese fans in the stands stood up as if they had seen Su Hao really about to break through the Dutch team's goal.

only.
Although Su Hao's powerful shot went over Vermeer's fingertips, it slammed solidly against the crossbar and flew out of bounds with a loud thud!

"oops!"

"What a pity about that goal!"

"Su Hao's shot was of extremely high quality!"

"Both the ball speed and the footwork are perfect!"

"Their luck was just too bad. Vermeer had already surrendered, but the crossbar ended up helping the Dutch team!"

Seeing that the powerful shot actually hit the crossbar, Huang Jianxiang, the commentator, was so frustrated that he slammed his fist on the table.

At the same time, the more than 50,000 fans in the Workers' Stadium stands all exclaimed "Holy crap!"
of course!

Compared to the reaction of the Chinese fans, the Dutch fans who were singing and dancing in the away fans' section reacted much more strongly.

They came specifically to watch their team slaughter weaker opponents.

How come?
The first dangerous shot of the game.
It's actually from the weak Chinese team?
Su Hao's powerful shot silenced the Dutch fans' chants.

Similarly, the 11 arrogant Dutch players on the field immediately turned their attention to Su Hao.

Although these Dutch national team players looked down on the Chinese team from the bottom of their hearts, they didn't even care what the names of the Chinese players were.

But Su Hao is different!

They weren't unaware of the news; they knew that Arsenal's manager, Wenger, was pursuing a young Chinese player named Su with great fervor.

but
For these established Dutch players, even if Wenger had taken a liking to them, they were still just 16-year-old youths.

Even in the Netherlands, there aren't many players of that age who can get playing time in the first team.

However, in the past ten seconds, this guy managed to link up the Chinese team's attack right in front of this group of world-class teams, and even almost broke through their own goal.

"Everyone, keep an eye on number 10!"

Having almost conceded a goal, Robin van Persie, the newly appointed captain of the Dutch national team, naturally spoke up in this embarrassing situation.

"I'm watching him!"

As soon as the captain spoke, Nan Derong naturally obliged and immediately took on the task of keeping an eye on Su Hao.

In De Jong's view, young people like Su Hao, who are only teenagers, are at an age where they lack education.

The competition resumed after this brief interruption.

Perhaps because Su Hao had given them a rude awakening with his crossbar at the start of the game, the Dutch team, feeling they had lost face, suddenly became serious after the match restarted.

Vermeer first passed the ball to his own right-back, Nerom.

After receiving the ball, Nerom began to dribble forward along his wing.

On the Chinese side, Yu Hanchao on the left wing originally intended to go up and press the ball.

However, Su Hao insisted that his teammate Lao Yu stay in his position and wait until the Dutch team passed the center circle before going to join them.

that's it!
The Dutch team began to press the Chinese team down the flanks, but the Chinese team, under Su Hao's call, retreated to their own half.

Set up a bus!
This is the tactic that Coach Fu Bo painstakingly devised before the match.

Throughout the history of world football, parking the bus is absolutely the only and most correct way for a weak team to play against a strong team.

It was precisely this correct approach that prevented the Dutch team, who had begun to take the game seriously, from breaking through the Chinese team's defense for the next twenty minutes.

The seventh minute of the match.

Sneijder used a series of feints and changes of direction in the heart of the Chinese midfield to shake off the tight marking of Gao Lin and Qin Sheng.

Just as Sneijder created space to pass the ball to Tiendali, who had arrived on the wing!
Su Hao, however, once again relied on his thirty years of experience to anticipate Sneijder's passing motivation!

A decisive sliding tackle!

Su Hao's long legs managed to intercept Sneijder's pass halfway through.

Of course, it's different from playing against Chinese Super League teams on a regular basis.

Before Su Hao could pass the ball after getting up, De Jong pounced on him fiercely.

Nigel de Jong!
This Dutch midfielder, born in 1984, is a force to be reckoned with – he has the physique, the temper, the skill, and the ability to foul!

Most importantly, De Jong also had Sneijder coming to help defend alongside him.

Unsurprisingly, it was a close and brutal impact.

Add to that Sneijder's harassment!
Su Hao, who had just gotten up, didn't have time to pass the ball before De Jong stole it back.

De Jong, who got the ball, didn't hesitate and pushed it back to Sneijder's feet with his left foot.

"Hey, Chinese kid, you still need to practice!"

Without further thought, Su Hao quickly threw himself back into defense!
"There's still a significant gap!"

"Facing a world-class defensive midfielder, Su Hao is indeed a bit..."

"But it's alright. Su Hao is only 16 years old. His performance is already quite remarkable. We can't expect a 16-year-old to be able to go head-to-head with world-class players."

Old Huang, who was in the commentary booth, came to Su Hao's rescue.

And this time!
The professor, who had been keeping his eyes fixed on Su Hao in the stands, was once again moved by Su Hao's performance.

At this moment, what the professor saw was not De Jong snatching Su Hao away.

The professor saw that Su Hao somehow predicted Sneijder's passing route.

Moreover, what the professor saw was Su Hao's composure after being verbally mocked by De Jong, as well as his seasoned mentality in quickly getting back into the game!
too exaggerated!

For a professor who is good at observing every detail on the field, Su Hao's performance just now was indeed a bit too unbelievable.

That kind of prediction
That would require an extraordinary talent or a wealth of experience!

In terms of experience, Su Hao at his age could not possibly have much, so everything can only be attributed to Su Hao's absolutely freakish talent.

The professor was once again amazed by Su Hao's talent.

On the field, Sneijder responded with a long-range shot, ending the Dutch attack.

The 11th minute of the game.

It remains an attacking opportunity for the Dutch team.

Because of the encirclement of him by Su Hao, Zheng Zhi, Qin Sheng and Gao Lin in the middle lane.

Sneijder began trying to move the ball to the wing.

That is, it all started with Sneijder's transfer.

More than 50,000 Chinese fans at the Workers' Stadium witnessed firsthand the incredible abilities of the player known as "Little Flying Man".

The Netherlands' right flank!
Facing Yu Hanchao, who was keeping a low profile and ready for battle.

Robben simply flicked the ball to change direction and then accelerated from a standstill.

Yu Hanchao, whose speed was on a completely different level, was immediately left far behind by Robben.

Robben was about to break into his own backfield.

Rong Hao immediately rushed forward.

then
Robben's inside cut, which is known as "you know he's going to cut inside, but you just can't stop him," has appeared.

There are no obstacles at all!
Faced with Robben's exaggerated signature skills, Rong Hao was no match for him at all.

After effortlessly completing the inside cut, Robben unleashed his signature left-footed power shot.

However, although the shot was powerful, the angle was somewhat lacking.

Finally, the football cleared the goalpost and flew high out of bounds.

The Chinese team has escaped disaster once again!
"Go China!"

"Go China!"

"Go China!!!"

The cheers of the Chinese fans at the Workers' Stadium never stopped from the moment the whistle blew.

Meanwhile, the Chinese national team players on the field continued to defend desperately with all their might.

The Netherlands' relentless attack has lasted for over twenty minutes.

From initially approaching it with a "let's just have fun" mentality to now employing all sorts of tactics without breaking the deadlock.

The Dutch superstars are clearly serious about it.

Even in the 19th minute of the match, when Van Persie and Du Wei were vying for a header in the penalty area, they made physical contact and even shoved each other a few times.

That's why they haven't been able to score a goal for so long.

Before anyone knew it, even the Dutch team's two center-backs, Vlaar and Heitinga, had started to participate in the Dutch team's attack near the center circle!
"The Chinese team's backcourt is under a lot of pressure right now!"

"It has to be said that there is indeed a big gap in strength between the two teams."

"In the first twenty minutes or so, the only shot by the Chinese team that hit the crossbar was Su Hao's long-range shot at the start of the game. From then on, the Dutch team kept the Chinese team pinned in their own half."

"In these twenty-odd minutes, possession was 74% to 26%!"

"Shots on goal: 8-1!"

"The foul count is also 7-0!"

"If luck hadn't seemed to be on China's side today, the score would probably have been different long ago."
-
[Sigh! The gap is really too obvious. To defend against Dutch players, we need at least two players to double-team them, and even then, we might not be able to contain them.]
-
We were hoping Su Hao's joining would bring us some surprises, but it seems we were overthinking it. One person can't change anything, especially since he's not as good as others.
-
[De Jong is still strong! Look at how well he's positioned himself against Su Hao; aside from that one shot against the crossbar at the very beginning of the match, Su Hao hasn't had any other standout moments!]
-
Damn, this game is so frustrating to watch. Now we're just waiting to see when the Netherlands score the first goal. Once that happens, we'll probably be a sieve in no time.
-
[Haha, our uncrowned kings are still the best! The Chinese national team still wants to play against the Netherlands? Isn't that just asking for trouble?! Van Gaal, hurry up and score a goal! Let the Chinese national team know their place!]
-
[Can you please block this disgusting comment upstairs? Even though the Chinese national football team can't beat them, don't say things like that! You're a fucking bastard, a banana-like person!]

The Netherlands' relentless attack continues.

On the Chinese team's side, including Su Hao, everyone started to be out of breath.

Against a team like the Netherlands, everyone has to be on high alert and dare not relax for even a second.

Therefore, the physical exertion under these conditions is unimaginable.

but!

Although the Chinese national football team struggled to defend, Su Hao did gain some insights after observing the team for so long.

The Netherlands' last line of defense.

Those two center-backs have lost their positions and joined the attack countless times.

In this situation, Su Hao naturally thought he might be able to find an opportunity in the center-back position.

Thinking of this, Su Hao took advantage of the dead ball situation to quietly call Yu Hanchao, the fastest player on the national team, to his side.

After a brief whisper, Yu Hanchao slowly switched places with Gao Lin.

Gao Lin began to defend the flanks, while Yu Hanchao took the lead.

Su Hao only thought of it on a whim.

Afterwards, Su Hao gritted his teeth and joined Zheng Zhi in defending Sneijder.

Sneijder!
This top midfielder who once led Inter Milan to rebuild their dynasty is indeed too strong.

Especially after Sneijder took it seriously.

So far, Su Hao can only keep up with Sneijder by relying on the thirty years of experience shown on the panel.

Su Hao was struggling to kick.

But what Su Hao didn't know was...

Sneijder, as his opponent, was actually even more shocked!
It should be noted that Sneijder at this time was already a world-class midfielder who had achieved the pinnacle of his abilities.

Whether in league matches or national team matches.

Forget about being attacked by three people, even being surrounded by four people is commonplace for him.

Even with such a tight encirclement, Sneijder can easily revitalize the team's attack through his footwork and rhythm changes.

but! !! !!

Today!
Sneijder did not expect that when facing the Chinese team, especially this 16-year-old Chinese player, he would be in trouble.

He had lost count of how many times this wretched 16-year-old had interrupted his offensive plans.

After one or two times, Sneijder thought maybe the kid was just lucky.

But in those twenty to thirty minutes, he failed to deliver even a single through pass that could break through the defense for Van Persie, who was constantly making runs in the attacking third.

This is a bit puzzling.

Of course, Sneijder never imagined that the young man in front of him had frozen him based on his own experience.

After all, he's only 16. At that age, he probably doesn't even have much experience in bed, let alone on the court.

It was this defiant attitude that led Sneijder to lead De Jong back into the encirclement of Su Hao, Zheng Zhi, Qin Sheng, and Su Hao.

Two against three!

Sneijder believed the advantage lay with him.

However, this time, because of Sneijder's overconfidence, Qin Sheng, who had been toyed with by Sneijder countless times, suddenly panicked and kicked the ball away from Sneijder's feet.

With that simple poke, the football miraculously appeared at Su Hao's feet.

The entire Dutch team at the same time.

The Dutch team, who were used to pushing their defensive line past the midfield line, hadn't even had time to retreat.

Yu Hanchao, who had just been mentioned by Su Hao, started running like a madman the moment the ball reached Su Hao's side, charging towards the Dutch team's backfield.

As for Su Hao!

I held it in for a full thirty minutes!

Given this opportunity, how could Su Hao possibly hesitate even for a moment?

The outside of the right foot.

Su Hao then forcefully slammed the ball out.

It wasn't a ball behind the defense.

Su Hao unleashed an extremely fast ground-sliding kick!

On the Dutch side, center-backs Vlaar and Heitinga were just contemplating whether to rush forward and help their teammates with a long-range shot. They genuinely hadn't expected Sneijder to suddenly lose possession, nor had they anticipated that the Chinese player who had just been strolling in front of them would possess such speed!

of course!

What they least expected was that the number 10 of the Chinese team actually delivered a super through ball that was perfect in both speed and direction, right between the two of them!

"Su Hao!"

"That was a beautiful pass!!!"

"pretty!!!"

"Yu Hanchao!!!"

"Very fast!!!"

"Vlar and Heitinga are both in pursuit!"

"However, it's obvious that the two of them can't keep up with Yu Hanchao's full-speed sprint!"

"Su Hao's passing position is excellent!"

"That's exactly the angle that makes it difficult for the goalkeeper to come out!"

"pretty!!!"

"It's coming!!!"

"Yu Hanchao!"

"Right foot strike!!"

"He's one-on-one with the opponent!!!"

"He's one-on-one with the opponent!!!"

Huang Jianxiang, who was in the commentary booth, stood up tremblingly.

In the same stands, more than 50,000 Chinese fans held their breath and stopped their cheering and shouting that they had been holding until now!
And on the field!

He watched as the Chinese player, whom he didn't recognize at all, dribbled the ball into the penalty area.

Dutch goalkeeper Vermeer panicked and rushed out of the penalty area.

And after getting within three meters of Yu Hanchao, he fell to the ground and lunged sideways to maximize his defensive coverage.

Vermeer did it to the extreme!

but!

Yu Hanchao!
This Guangzhou Evergrande substitute winger, who had practiced or played too many one-on-one situations due to Muriqui's previous injury, did not disappoint the countless Chinese people who were holding their breath at this moment.

It's like doing it countless times on the training ground, in the Chinese Super League, and in the AFC Champions League.

He flicked the ball with his right foot and lunged to the right!
Yu Hanchao cleanly and efficiently bypassed the Netherlands' last barrier!

Immediately afterwards, he faced an empty net!
Yu Hanchao pushed with his right foot!
The football skimmed along the Workers' Stadium turf and crossed the Dutch goal line, which countless fans considered an insurmountable barrier!

It was only for a moment!

It only took a few seconds from when Yu Hanchao received Su Hao's through ball to when he scored!

But for those tens of thousands of die-hard fans on the field!
Or perhaps they are Chinese fans who have never missed a single national team match on television!
That moment felt like it lasted far too long!
"Yu Hanchao!!!"

"He's past Vermeer!"

"Push with your right foot!!!"

"The ball went in!!!"

"The ball went in!!!"

Goal!!!!

"pretty!!!"

"pretty!!!!"

"Can you believe it?"

"Can you believe it?"

"China has scored!"

"Thirty-two minutes and thirty-six seconds into the game!"

"China has scored!"

"Thanks to Su Hao's through ball and Yu Hanchao's one-on-one opportunity, the Chinese team cleanly and decisively sent the ball into the Dutch goal!"

"1:0!!!"

"1:0!!!"

"After being surrounded by the Dutch team for more than 30 minutes!"

"Who would have thought that the team that was considered a minnow, the Chinese team, would score the first goal!"

"Fans of the Chinese national football team!"

Can you believe it?

Huang Jianxiang, who was in the commentary booth, roared.

And in the stands!
More than 50,000 Chinese fans went completely wild the moment the referee blew the whistle.

"boom!!!"

It's like detonating a massive amount of TNT!
At that moment, more than 50,000 fans erupted in a thunderous roar.

And on the field!

Yu Hanchao, who sent the ball into the Dutch goal, rushed to the sidelines immediately after scoring.

Behind him!

Su Hao, Zheng Zhi, Gao Lin, Hao Junmin, Zhang Linpeng
All the national team members also rushed up at full speed.

Even though this was just a friendly match!

Although this was a competition opportunity that the Dutch had secured by giving them ten million!
but!

After being pinned against the goal and relentlessly attacked for over thirty minutes.

The moment the goal was scored!

Really!

All the repression and resentment vanished!

Yes!

China has scored!

Moreover, the team that scored the goal was the Netherlands, the uncrowned champions and runners-up in the World Cup.

Although for those few tens of minutes, the Chinese team was completely overwhelmed by the opponent!

but!

China has scored the first goal!

That's enough!
[Damn! Awesome! China is awesome! Even if the Dutch thrashed us with this goal, it would still be worth it! Haha, Su Hao is amazing, that pass, the timing, the accuracy, the speed of the header—it was absolutely textbook perfect!]
-
[Seriously, Su Hao was too fierce! He delivered that kick right in front of De Jong! Hahaha, China is actually in the lead! Quick, quick, someone slap me! Is this for real?!]
-
[I was just saying Su Hao wasn't good enough, my bad, my bad. But look at that through ball, wow! Having a great midfielder makes all the difference. That counter-attack was so damn satisfying!]
-
[Did you see that? Su Hao didn't even look up when he passed the ball, and he didn't make any extra movements. If Su Hao had looked up to check or something, De Jong, who was right next to him, could have forced the ball back. It was precisely because he didn't check or make any extra movements that Su Hao was able to break through the entire Dutch defense!]
-
[Haha, a 1-0 lead over the Netherlands! Who the hell can believe this? This must be a dream!]
-
Don't underestimate yourself like that. We even beat France before, and back then France fought a real war!
-
[Waaaaah, that son of a bitch Su Hao! Mom, don't miss me! Where's the rooftop? The rooftop! I want to go to the rooftop!]

The Workers' Stadium was in an uproar.

And amidst this frantic scream that could pierce one's eardrums.

The Dutch team's stars were suddenly embarrassed.

Especially the Dutch national team coach Louis van Gaal, who was standing on the sidelines.

If the Dutch team casually let the Chinese team win a point, then Van Gaal would feel absolutely no pressure, since he'd already been paid.

But the problem is that their own team takes it really seriously.

About ten shots in thirty minutes, 74% possession!

In this situation, how could the Chinese break through the defense line with just one counterattack?
Moreover, the Chinese are ahead of them.
Regardless of the final result of the match, those proud and troublesome Dutch fans will definitely be able to handle it.
With that in mind, Van Gaal naturally couldn't sit still any longer.

After getting up from the bench, Van Gaal gathered the players together and finally began to seriously discuss tactics.

Chef Fan became serious, not far from the Chinese team's bench.

After Yu Hanchao scored, acting head coach Fu Bo first rubbed his eyes, and then, after hearing his assistant start screaming, he raised his hands high.

comfortable!
As a temporary worker, Fu Bo was genuinely thrilled at that moment.

A resounding victory over Iraq secured his retention of the position, and now he's leading the world's runner-up at halftime!
What kind of record is this?
A temporary worker who was put out to help in the fire actually achieved such results!
At this moment, Fu Bo suddenly felt something.
(Good luck, good luck!)
1: 0!

The match has reached its 38th minute.

The Chinese team miraculously took the lead.

However, it all started with that miraculous goal by the Chinese team.

The true Dutch team that would later thrash the defending champions 5-1 has finally emerged.

In the next seven minutes of the first half.

The Chinese team, including Gao Lin and Yu Hanchao, almost crawled into their own penalty area before barely managing to hold their goal and go into halftime with a one-goal lead.

And then, after the 15-minute halftime break...

The Dutch team made three substitutions immediately.

De Guzman was substituted, and Huntelaar came on as a substitute.

The remaining positions consist of two full-backs, with Van Gaal fielding Dutch Eredivisie players, essentially fielding top-tier full-backs.

That is, under this change of formation.

A massacre of the Chinese team has begun.

The second half had just begun, less than 8 minutes in.

Frustrated by Su Hao, Sneijder finally vented his frustration with a signature long-range shot and opened the scoring for the Netherlands.

1: 1!

The Netherlands have equalized!
56th minute of the match!

This time it's General Fan.

Despite being sandwiched between Du Wei and Feng Xiaoting, Fan Dajiang still managed to create space with his dazzling feints and score his first goal of the match with a well-placed shot.

2: 1!

68th minute of the match!

The Netherlands team extended their lead once again.

This time, the assist came from the full-back's overlapping run.

With a cross, Dutch defender Heitinga surged from the backfield to midfield, outjumping Feng Xiaoting to send the ball into the Chinese goal for the third time.

3: 1!

74th minute of the match!

This time, the goal was scored by Robben, who had been charging down the wing the entire game.

It was still his signature inside-cut power shot.

As the Chinese team began to attempt a final counterattack, Robben was given some space to sprint, and the Flying Dutchman finally found his place in front of his own fans.

4: 1!

After taking a three-goal lead, the Dutch team, as if they had vented their frustrations, suddenly remembered that they had received a sponsorship fee of ten million from the football association to play this friendly match.

The Dutch team appropriately slowed down their attacking pace.

Meanwhile, Fu Bo returned the favor by substituting Su Hao and others, allowing Wu Lei and others, who were selected for the national team for the first time, to experience the atmosphere of competing against a strong team like the Netherlands.

4: 1!

This is how the match ended.

Judging from the score alone, China lost 1-4 to the Netherlands, a score that is acceptable to both sets of fans.

After all, in terms of strength, it would be reasonable for China to lose 1 to 7 to the Netherlands.

Interestingly, from the moment they took the lead by one goal, even after the Dutch scored four goals in the end, they were still undefeated.

Not a single Chinese fan in the stands booed or shouted for the crowd to disband.

In this match, everyone's slogan was the same: Go! Go! Go!

Especially the post-match thank-you segment.

Zheng Zhi led all 23 members of the national team to stand under the North Stand, holding a megaphone and shouting apologies to the fans.

But the fans' response almost brought these national team players to tears.

"It's alright! You played very well today. Losing to the Netherlands by four points is not your fault. We fans are clear-headed. You played to our strengths today. Keep it up, keep it up, well done, national team lads!"

"We don't just want you to win, we want your attitude. We enjoyed watching today's game, and we were even leading in the first half! Well done!"

"Don't say sorry, you played very well today. To be honest, we are already very satisfied with how well we played. Keep it up, well done!"

The fans were shouting at the top of their lungs from the stands.

When Zheng Zhi, the team captain, heard these words from the fans who had followed them through so many years of losses, he couldn't hold back his tears.

They lost!
But the fans not only forgave them, they also comforted the losers.
"Go China!"

"Go China!"

"Go China!"

The 23 people stood quietly on the sidelines, listening to the cheers that came from the elderly and children.

And in the crowd.

Listen to the cheers and shouts of encouragement in unison.

Su Hao's eyes also became moist without him realizing it.

Yes!

If he hadn't been wearing this red outfit, he might never have known what it would bring him in his life!
There was a time when he thought that as a Chinese person, even if he were reborn, he would probably never be able to lift the World Cup trophy, which symbolizes the highest honor, in this lifetime.

But now he's figured it out.

As long as he's wearing this red outfit, what does it matter if he never gets to touch that trophy in his entire life?
Hi! Your name is Su?

After the thank-you ceremony, the Dutch players did not leave the field because of a small awards ceremony organized by the sponsors.

It was at this moment that Sneijder took the initiative to walk up to Su Hao.

Throughout the entire match, Sneijder was the player who had the most direct confrontations with Su Hao.

Through these frequent encounters, Sneijder went from initial disdain to shock, and finally to admiration.

"Yes, just call me Sue, Wesley!"

Sneijder took the initiative to greet him, and Su Hao naturally bowed his head and replied.

Would you mind exchanging jerseys?

"Yeah! No problem!"

As the number 10 for the Dutch national team, Sneijder would naturally exchange jerseys with the new number 10 for the Chinese national team.

It wasn't that Sneijder lowered himself; to be honest, he was genuinely surprised by Su Hao in this match.

Even now, Sneijder is still thinking about why Su Hao was able to anticipate his offensive intentions so many times during defense.

I was the runner-up in the World Cup!

This achievement is not something just anyone can have.

With experience at the level of a World Cup runner-up
What is this guy?
"Keep it up! I believe you'll be in Europe soon. Maybe next time we meet, we'll be facing each other in a Champions League match?"

"haha, thank you!"

After saying that, the two took off their jerseys and went their separate ways.

"Holy crap, Xiao Hao, this is incredible! Sneijder offered to exchange jerseys with you!"

Qin Sheng looked at Su Hao holding Sneijder's jersey and immediately complained with envy.

That said, although they are all opponents on the field, to be honest, many members of the Chinese team are fans of those Dutch superstars.

It's like Wu Lei still staring longingly at Van Persie, who is surrounded by Dutch players.

Qin Sheng had previously stated that his favorite football star was Sneijder.

Forehead.
It was only after Qin Sheng said that Su Hao realized why Qin Sheng, who usually used greetings to disrupt his opponents' mentality, was playing so cleanly today!

"How about I give you the jersey?"

Seeing the fervent look in Lao Qin's eyes, Su Hao suddenly blurted out this sentence.

"Oh? Really? Haha, thanks!"

"Pah! Dream on! This was given to me by Sneijder!"

The game is over.

But the repercussions of this match are only just beginning.

Just like Wenger in the stands.

After witnessing Su Hao's match against a world-class team like the Dutch national team, the heart that had long been won over by Su Hao was now completely won over.

Immediately after the match ended, Wenger called the team, urging them to quickly calculate the transfer funds available for the new season and to promptly liquidate the players who needed to leave Arsenal according to the list of players he had prepared beforehand.

Wenger is already itching to bring Su Hao under his wing.

Meanwhile, Mendes, who was also deeply attracted to Su Hao and was sitting next to him, also decided to officially begin pursuing Su Hao.

However, what Mendes didn't know was that his most formidable rival, Minola Iola, who wasn't even there, had already arranged a meeting between himself and Su Hao through some special means by Evergrande's staff!
P.S.: Waaaaah!

These dads are amazing!

Number one on the monthly ticket chart for new books!

I really didn't expect this book to have so many supporters.

Since the book was made clear from the very beginning that it would be about the Chinese national football team, I actually thought that the book would do very, very badly.
But I really didn't expect the mixed noodles to reach this level; the dads actually elevated mixed noodles to this level.

Putting everything else aside, all I can do is keep writing with all my might. This is today's 10,000-word update, and as usual, there will be a bonus chapter for monthly votes at midnight.

And finally, I'm begging for monthly votes again, so that this article about Chinese football can go on until the very end!
