Zhang Shujie looked at the teammates of the club in front of him, Robben, who should have been very happy, did not smile at this time, and he gave Zhang Shujie the greatest respect.

"Hi, Zhang. Robben shouted softly.

Zhang Shujie took off his jersey and handed it to Robben, and the two exchanged team uniforms. Zhang Shujie said: "Congratulations, Alger. ”

"Thank you. I feel sorry for you, Zhang. ”

"It's okay, I'm still waiting for the next four years. ”

Robben nodded lightly and said nothing, and then the two embraced.

Li Mu and Blind also exchanged jerseys, Liang Xiran and Van Persie exchanged jerseys, and Liang Xiran and Huntelaar exchanged jerseys...... When Zhang Shujie and Robben separated, he put Robben's jersey on his shoulders and walked to the front of the stands, where Wang Shihan was.

Wang Shihan had tears in her eyes, watching him walk in slowly, at that moment, I don't know if it was Wang Shihan's illusion, she seemed to see Zhang Shujie and smiled.

Zhang Shujie walked in front of her, but there was nothing, just stretched out his right hand, Wang Shihan leaned forward so that Zhang Shujie's hand could touch her face. Wang Shihan also raised his arm and held Zhang Shujie's hand.

"We lost. Zhang Shujie choked up.

Wang Shihan sniffed and said, "It's okay." ”

'It's me who is useless, I am not on the pitch when the team needs me the most. ”

"It's not your fault, you've done a great job, really. ”

Zhang Shujie hung his head, suddenly leaned up, kissed Wang Shihan's lips, and the two kissed. The camera also focused on the place, but ten seconds later, the two separated again, and Zhang Shujie finally stroked Wang Shihan's cheek, turned his head and walked to the court again.

The Chinese players thanked the spectators in the stands, and many Chinese fans applauded them with tears in their eyes. Although the Chinese team lost, they made a historic break to the quarterfinals, and in the battle for the semifinals, they lost two generals to the Netherlands 2:3, although they were still honored.

After thanking him, Ma Junqiang was interviewed, and because he was in a bad mood, he just said a few words and left in a hurry, one of which was: "We failed to beat the Netherlands, failed to advance to the semi-finals, I hope the fans don't blame us." ”

Zhang Shujie said in an interview: "I'm sorry for the fans who have always supported us, I can only watch the team fail on the sidelines for most of the game, and I blame myself." ”

Both captains and vice-captains apologized to the fans, believing that the team had failed to live up to their hopes. In fact, how can the fans blame them? I am afraid that they don't like them enough.

When he returned to the locker room, he didn't see Ahn Rong, he was taking a shower, and then he was going to attend the post-match press conference. The team members didn't speak, each team member sat in their positions, no one spoke, Tang Ling and Huang Yu, who were the most lively on weekdays, were also very quiet, and even their eyes were a little dull.

Zhang Shujie walked up to Tang Ling and said, "Don't be sad, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and we will have a chance in the future." ”

Ma Junqiang clapped his hands vigorously and said, "If we all cheer up, won't we just fail? Will we not play in the World Cup again in the future? We are so young, we can wait for another four years!"

Zhang Shujie continued: "That's right, we are all still very young, and we should not be defeated by this failure. What I feel most guilty about is that everyone is winning glory for the country on the field, but I can only watch and can't do anything, I am sorry for everyone. ”

Li Mu looked at him and said: "You didn't feel sorry for anyone, I think that every player on the field performed very well, it's just that football games sometimes need a little luck, and it's a pity that we didn't get good luck today." ”

An Rong walked out at some point, he first applauded the speeches of the three core players, and then said: "I know everyone is sad now, and I am the same, many of you have actually suffered defeats in your careers, but none of them have been as heavy as today, because this is the World Cup, it is a different event. However, we had to accept that it was the Netherlands who qualified and we were eliminated. But I want to tell you, it's not terrible to lose, it's scary to see the future, obviously, we're not like that, each of you has a very good future, four years from now, everyone is in their prime, that's our real chance!"

The players looked at An Rong, still didn't speak, just looked at him quietly. An Rong is right, losing a game is not a terrible thing, what is really scary is losing the future of a team after this. An Rong didn't want to see this happen to this group of teenagers in their twenties, because their future was infinitely bright.

The team members never said a word, but gradually changed their sitting posture, and all of them sat upright, raising their heads and chests. An Rong glanced around and nodded with satisfaction.

"Let's go take a shower first, Zhang Shujie, and come with me to the press conference later. ”

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

At the press conference, reporters arrived early, and the first to speak was Dutch coach Louis van Gaal, who said: "It was a really tough game, the toughest we have played so far, the Chinese team is very strong, they show more strength than the cards." The successive injuries of Zhang Shujie and Li Mu gave us a chance, and fortunately, we advanced. At the same time, I also feel sorry and sorry for the Chinese team, their departure is a misfortune for the World Cup, because they have too many excellent players. ”

Van Gaal complimented the Chinese team as a winner, and An Rong said it much more simply: "I congratulate the Dutch team on becoming the final winner. But my disciples also did very well and, as Louis van Gaal said, it was a lot of luck for the Dutch to beat us, and of course, they were very good in their own right. I will praise my players and I will thank the fans who have supported us. Thank you. ”

Having said that, An Rong didn't plan to continue, and he didn't want to answer the reporter's questions. Zhang Shujie added: "I'm very sad and sad now, but football is like that, when two good players compete, only one winner will be produced, and the other will have to be out. I didn't contribute much because I was injured and I didn't want to use the 'injury' to relieve myself, but I regretted why I left at this time, but fortunately we still have a lot of time and we can best prepare for the next four years. Here, I would like to promise you that after four years, I, Zhang Shujie, will make a comeback!"
