Chapter 076: Incarnate as a commentator

"Whoa—"

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Vancouver Olympic Stadium resounded with a deafening huge chant from the fans of the "Dragon Team" fan club, and every Chinese fan was selfless and hysterical.

The Chinese men's football team advanced to the quarterfinals in last year's World Cup in Brazil, unfortunately lost to the Netherlands to miss the semi-finals, and a year later, the Chinese women's football team actually passed five levels and six to advance to the semi-finals, and then defeated the defending champion Japan women's football team in the semi-finals.

Such a result is enough to make any Chinese feel sincerely proud, especially when the opponent defeated is Japan, which has historical roots and hatred.

Hold one's head high!

Tang Zheng, China's No. 1 star who was with the fans of the 'Dragon Team' fan club, was particularly touched, and his extreme guess about the Chinese women's football team in this World Cup was in the semi-finals, which is the so-called stop semi-finals, and the result was ...... Reached the finals!

The Chinese women's football team is not the invincible sonorous rose at the turn of the century, and now the Chinese women's football team is at best a potential stock full of hope and buds, but it is such a potential stock that has beaten the defending champion.

This sensation is no less than the Danish fairy tale of Euro 1992 and Greek mythology 2004.

Although the Chinese women's football team only advanced to the final and did not win the championship, don't forget that this Chinese women's football team is only the third-tier team in this Women's World Cup, ranking 10th in the world......

Looking at the women's football girls who passionately vented their joy of advancing to the finals, Tang Zheng looked down at the 'surprise' prepared in his hand, grinned, and muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "It seems that ...... This 'surprise' will have to wait until the final. ”

"But it's okay, so that there is more motivation, after all...... When it comes to the finals, winning the competition is the championship! Danish fairy tales and Greek myths can be staged, why can't China, which has a culture of 5,000 years, not?"

As the defending champions, the Japanese women's football team seemed to have lost their souls at the moment when the whistle sounded at the end of the game, their eyes were blank, their expressions were wooden, and they ...... I thought that the semi-finals meeting the Chinese women's football team would be a gift package to submit to the finals, but the result was ...... The Chinese women's football team, which defended almost the entire game, won the game 1:0 and advanced to the final.

This...... Such an outcome is difficult for anyone to accept.

At this moment, the brutality of competitive sports is vividly embodied.

Say goodbye to the quadrennial World Cup feast!

The career time of the women's football team cannot be compared with the career of the men's football team, and many choose to retire at the age of 30.

Yang 5 commentator Huang Jianxiang fell into endless madness, even more excited than He Wei, who broadcast the Chinese men's football team to the quarterfinals of the World Cup last year, he was full of passion and said: "The last time the Chinese women's football team reached the World Cup final was back in the United States World Cup 16 years ago, when the Chinese women's football team, known as the golden generation, finally lost to the host United States women's football team in a penalty shootout, missing the opportunity to reach the top!" Then the overall strength of the Chinese women's football team began to decline, and now this reborn women's football team has given us too much surprise...... Defeated the defending champion in the semi-finals......"

The attention that the women's football team has attracted in China is definitely not comparable to the men's football team, but Tang Zheng's 'accompanied' girlfriend Zhao Lina to prepare for the Women's World Cup has attracted the attention of many fans, and now the women's football team has defeated the Japanese women's football team to advance to the World Cup final, which has attracted a little more attention.

So, it didn't take long...... Almost all of China knows that the Chinese women's football team has reached the final of the Women's World Cup.

It is undeniable that the low level of attention of women's football in China is terrible, but after reaching the quadrennial World Cup final, not to mention liking football, just by virtue of the name of the country in front of women's football, it is enough to attract the attention of every Chinese.

The final of the 2015 Women's World Cup in Canada is 7 a.m. Beijing time on July 6, which is 7 p.m. local time on July 5, Canada, so many domestic fans temporarily choose to go to Vancouver, Canada, to cheer for the girls at close range.

However, with limited tickets at BC Stadium, the venue for the Women's World Cup final, ticket prices are naturally on the rise in the face of the enthusiasm of Chinese fans.

The lack of attention for women's football is not only reflected in China, but also in most countries around the world, and even the stands of many key women's football games in this World Cup will have a large number of empty seats, only in China, the number of matches will be slightly less vacant.

Of course, it's just a little less.

However, after the Chinese women's football team defeated the Japanese women's football team to advance to the World Cup finals, whether it was online channels or on-site ticket purchase channels, the tickets that had just been released were quickly sold out.

So with the Women's World Cup final getting closer and closer, the tickets were hyped to an unbelievable level, so that the foreign media were dumbfounded.

However, thinking that the consumption level of Chinese is getting higher and higher, I am also relieved.

People are stupid and have a lot of money......

※※※

Hao Wei, the head coach of the Chinese women's football team, was extremely excited that the team could qualify for the World Cup finals, and even had insomnia like all the coaching staff members and women's football girls that night, but as the head coach, he knew that entering the final could no longer be left to chance, and he had to take it seriously!

Luck is certainly very important to the game, but it is not the only factor that determines the game.

At the end of the day, it's still strength.

It's not that the Chinese women's football team has no hope of beating the U.S. women's football team, which has always been at the top level of the world, but that the possibility is relatively low.

The win between Cameroon Women's Football and England Women's Football was based on the overall strength of the two, and then, with some luck, it was logical to advance to the semi-finals.

The defeat of the Japanese women's football team is largely because the Japanese women's football team is arrogant and too conceited, and wants to beat the Chinese women's football team with its own strong strength, but it is impossible to eat fat in one bite, and the Japanese women's football team, which lacks rhythm changes, loses itself, and it is too late for them to realize it......

When the tournament reaches the final, the U.S. women's football team may certainly underestimate the Chinese women's football team, but it will not be like the Japanese women's football team faced in the semifinals.

As the world's top team, it will not fall down again in front of the bloody lesson and become the laughing stock of the world.

In fact, the head coach of the U.S. women's football team, Jill Ellis, reminded the players more than once in the evening tactical class not to underestimate the Chinese women's football team, because being able to advance to the final has already meant that the strength has been tested, even if the Chinese women's football team is now ranked 17th in the world.

Tang Zheng was not idle during the two days when the Chinese women's football team and the United States women's football team were preparing for the World Cup finals, and he participated in several sponsorship events in Canada and the United States before flying to Vancouver to cheer up his girlfriend Zhao Lina.

Women are different from men, women are more emotional, and many times they need to have a man by their side.

Zhao Lina, who seems to be extremely strong, is actually a little woman who needs to be cared for, Tang Zheng knows that his girlfriend is this kind of person who will accompany his girlfriend to prepare for the Women's World Cup in his busy schedule.

In the blink of an eye, the third and fourth place finals of the Canadian Women's World Cup kicked off at the Great Britain Stadium, and the German women's football team and the Japanese women's football team were tied in 90 minutes, but the Japanese women's football team defeated the German women's football team with a penalty kick in extra time and finally won the third place.

The third and fourth place finals are over, which means that the finals are about to start!

The price of tickets for the Women's World Cup final has risen to a certain extent under the pursuit of a large number of Chinese fans, and has reached the point where the market is priceless.

On the morning of the game, Tang Zheng came to the hotel where the Chinese women's football team stayed again.

Wang Yan, who was dining, had sharp eyes, and saw Tang Zheng walking from afar, and then stood up and waved: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, we are here!"

Immediately, the shouts of "brother-in-law" and "brother-in-law" sounded again and again in the dining area of the hotel where the Chinese women's football team stayed.

Because the women's football team in preparation pays great attention to discipline, even Zhao Lina, who saw her boyfriend's arrival, did not take the initiative to walk over, but stood at the dining table with a smile.

Tang Zheng naturally knew what to pay attention to before the finals, and he didn't come to the hotel where the women's football team stayed to talk to his girlfriend, because ...... He is to cheer up the women's football girls in advance.

Tang Zheng has a huge influence in China, and the head coach of the women's football team, Hao Wei, is also a fan of Tang Zheng, and he believes that the players will definitely have a better performance in the World Cup final in the evening if they get Tang Zheng's encouragement before the game.

Isn't that the last quarter-finals and semi-finals?

In just fifteen minutes, Tang Zheng said a lot of words, which also resonated with the women's football girls, but the most direct one was the last sentence: "If you can win the championship, in addition to the surprises mentioned before, everyone has a chance to travel to a tourist resort, and the location is not limited!"

"Wow! Really?"

"I'll drop a day, what did my brother-in-law say just now?"

"Did I hear me right?

"Brother-in-law is mighty!!"

At one time, the hotel dining area sounded the excited voices of the Chinese women's football girls.

Tang Zheng was very satisfied with the reaction of the girls in the women's football team, and said with a smile: "Then I will withdraw first." ”

Speaking of this, Tang Zheng looked at head coach Hao Wei: "Director Hao, I have something to talk to Li Na alone, it shouldn't violate the team management regulations, right?"

"No, no!" Hao Wei hurriedly shook his head, and then looked at Yu Hongchen, the leader of the women's football team: "Right? ”

Yu Hongchen nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, just chat!"

You must know that Tang Zheng's influence at home and abroad is very huge, and national leaders have praised Tang Zheng in public more than once, obviously admiring Tang Zheng very much.

As a person in the system, how can you act against the leaders of the country?

Even if you don't look at the face of the country's leaders, just looking at Tang Zheng's achievements over the years is enough to get some special treatment that others don't have.

Besides, people are also couples, and the boyfriend cheers up his girlfriend before the game, what's wrong?

……

"Come on, don't put any pressure on you, just like you did in the last game against the Japanese women's football team. ”

Tang Zheng put his hands on Zhao Lina's shoulders and said softly.

"Got it. Zhao Lina nodded with a smile, and then asked curiously, "What was the surprise you promised to those girls?"

"Their surprise?" Tang Zheng looked down at Zhao Lina, and said playfully, "Don't you want to know your surprise?"

"My surprise?" Zhao Lina reacted: "Am I different from their surprise?"

"I said you are so stupid, you are my girlfriend, my future wife, how can you treat them together?" Tang Zheng rolled his eyes.

But women's concerns are often different, and Zhao Lina returned a charming white eye: "It's not your wife!"

"Then whose wife are you going to be?" the corners of Tang Zheng's mouth curled slightly.

"Hmph!" Zhao Lina snorted lightly: "I won't tell you!"

After that, Zhao Lina gently pushed Tang Zheng away, took two steps back, and showed a sweet smile: "Brother Tang Zheng, thank you for helping me decompress." ”

Tang Zheng didn't speak, but looked straight at Zhao Lina.

"Nasty!" Zhao Lina showed a shy expression in the face of Tang Zheng's eyes, leaving Tang Zheng with a back, but after taking two steps, she turned around and raised her right fist mischievously: "I'm going to be the champion! Don't forget my surprise!"

"No problem!"

Tang Zheng looked at the back of Zhao Lina, who walked back to the dining area, and muttered to himself in a voice that only he heard: "Whether you win or not, it's all yours." ”

……

BC Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium located in the heart of Vancouver, Canada's first huge stadium, its roof was a resilient membrane, supported by air pressure, once the world's largest stadium of its kind, and was nicknamed "pineapple bun" by the Vancouver Chinese because of its appearance.

Because of this, the Chinese and ethnic Chinese living in Vancouver are full of confidence in the upcoming World Cup final of the Chinese women's football team.

Half a day before the start of the game, a large number of Chinese and American fans gathered outside the BC Stadium Square.

If it weren't for the huge posters of the two sides of the Women's World Cup final hanging in the square outside the stadium, people passing by would have thought that the stadium would be going on with a superstar's concert.

Women's football, with its influence in the world, has very limited influence.

By the time the two sides entered the stadium to warm up, the 55,000-seat BC Stadium was already full, and through the long view of the stadium, the stands on all sides were distinct.

However, there are obviously far more Chinese fans in red shirts than American fans in white shirts, and if it weren't for the fact that the United States is adjacent to Canada, the number of fans would probably be even larger.

Getting back to the point, the Chinese women's soccer girls who were playing for the first time in a full stadium felt a little nervous.

First it was the first World Cup final of their careers, and then they played it to full capacity......

Of course, the U.S. women's soccer team is no better.

While this wasn't the first World Cup final for the U.S. women's soccer team, they were also playing to full capacity.

After all, women's football matches and men's football games are completely incomparable, so many fans would rather watch low-level men's football matches than women's football games.

It is worth mentioning that Tang Zheng did not appear in the stadium stands this time, but as a special commentator of the Central 5, he partnered with the current Yang 5 football commentator He Wei to jointly explain the 2015 Canada Women's World Cup final at BC Stadium!
