There was still the last minute of stoppage time, and it was at that point that another match between Colombia and Senegal came to an end, and the two sides were tied at 0-0. Although the players on the field did not know the result yet, everyone on the field, from the fans to the manager, had already learned the news in the fastest time. The information age is different, and you can score instantly.

He Wei smiled at this time: "Colombia and Senegal finally fought 0:0, then the Chinese team will join hands with the Polish team to enter the round of 16, and it is estimated that Navalka should also know this result." ”

Nawalka did already know, the expression on his face was obviously much more relaxed, he crossed his arms, sat in the coach's seat with Erlang's legs crossed, this group stage was really terrifying, but it was finally thrilling, although Poland lost to the Chinese team by a big score, but still qualified as the second in the group.

"Toot, beet, beet——" The referee blew the whistle, and the game was over. With Li Mu's brace and Zhang Shujie and Xu Ziyi's goals, China defeated Poland 4-0, with three games, two wins and one draw, accumulating seven points, and advancing to the round of 16 as the group leader.

"Now the game is over, the Chinese team won 4-0 against Poland. However, due to the 0:0 match between Senegal and Colombia, the Polish team was lucky to get a place in the qualifiers although they lost to China by a big score. In any case, we congratulate the Chinese team and also congratulate Poland. ”

An Rong and Nawalka shook hands, the Chinese team and the Polish team players also shook hands with each other, and on the bench, the Polish team players walked into the field and told the players on the field the ranking of Group H, and the Polish team was lucky to enter the knockout round.

Zhang Shujie was interviewed after the game, and he opened the door to victory for the Chinese team in this game, he said: "I think it should be normal to be able to qualify from the group, because the strength of our Chinese team is already very strong, which is also what we expected." But one thing we all know by now is that the real test there has only just begun. ”

His words are not alarmist, as it is well known that the knockout stage of this kind of major cup competition is much more difficult than the group stage, because there are always some inexperienced teams in the group stage, such as Panama, Tunisia and other countries participating in the World Cup for the first time. Although the Chinese team did not meet them, they also met the weaker Senegal, and the first goal of these teams is usually to qualify from the group, but for most of the weak teams, they will go home after playing three group games.

The knockout rounds are different, occasionally, there can be one or two upsets in the top 16, but the further you go, the more difficult it will become. China are not so lucky, as their last-16 opponents will be Belgium and England, both of which are European powerhouses, and it will be a tough battle no matter who they meet.

And Li Muye, who scored two goals in this game, has the same opinion as Zhang Shujie: "The group stage is over, we have successfully qualified, and we will prepare for the round of 16 next, I hope to go further with my teammates." ”

A reporter asked him: "Would you rather meet Belgium or England?"

"It's not up to us, it seems to me that it's the same with everyone. Speaking of this, Li Mu smiled: "I think Belgium and England should think more about whether they are more willing to meet us or Poland." ”

Xu Ziyi, another player who scored goals, also had this opinion: "Actually, I know Belgium and England well, although I have never played against them, but many of their players have played in the Premier League, and I have played in the Premier League for three seasons, and many players from both teams have been teammates or opponents, so I think it is the same when I meet anyone." ”

Several Chinese players spoke with confidence, and it was clear that they were sure of winning whether they met Belgium or England. With the blessing of fame, prestige and countless championships, this group of Chinese players has reached unprecedented heights, and this World Cup will be a great opportunity for them to create miracles.

************************

Speaking at the post-match press conference, Nawalka said: "To be honest, I was very desperate at that moment when I saw that we had scored four goals against China, but when I learned that Colombia and Senegal had drawn, I felt lucky. We lost this game, the Chinese team was too strong, but fortunately we also got the right to qualify in the end. ”

A Polish reporter asked him: "We have analyzed it before, Poland can qualify with the Chinese team as long as there is a draw in this game, but the offensive formation you put out in the game, you can be conservative at the beginning, which does not have to worry about this." ”

Nawalka said: "Yes, as long as we draw with the Chinese team, we will definitely qualify, but only the winner of the football game is the most exciting." And even if we lose to the Chinese team, we still qualify, don't we?"

Shen Hao suddenly stood up and asked in fluent English: "Your team lost to China in the group stage, how far can you go when you are eliminated?" We all know that it is almost difficult to see a weak team in the knockout round, whether it is Belgium or England next, if Poland is in such a state and defensive play, I am afraid that the round of 16 will be your last game." ”

Navalka was very unhappy when he heard this, and almost got angry, but he also suppressed his anger: "This is the matter of our Polish team, you are a Chinese reporter, you should care about the Chinese team." As for how far we can go, you don't need to worry about it. ”

Shen Hao wanted to ask again, but Chen Hui pulled him and whispered, "Forget it, don't ask." ”

Shen Hao glanced at Chen Hui, sat down slowly, and didn't ask any more.

Then there is An Rong, An Rong is very happy, the team group has successfully qualified, is he not happy as the head coach, is it still sad? He said straight to the point: "I have to be proud of my disciples, to be honest, although I was confident that I could win at the beginning, I didn't expect to play such a big score." Actually, the Polish team has performed well, but unfortunately, my disciples are too strong. An Rong kept a smile from beginning to end when he said this, and the Polish reporters in the audience were very uncomfortable when they heard his words and saw his expression.

But what's the solution? Win or lose, football has always been like this.

Chen Hui and Shen Hao didn't ask questions, just to see what An Rong would say. A reporter asked him about the goal of the Chinese team next, and An Rong replied skillfully: "The goal? Of course, is to prepare for the round of 16, no matter what happens in the future, at least our goal in the next step is to pass the test of the top 16 first, whether the opponent is Belgium or England." ”
