After the Chinese team had the hope of winning the championship, the leaders of the domestic football association could no longer hold back their excitement, and they collectively chartered a flight to Doha to send greetings from their hometown fathers and elders to the soldiers of the national team.

The leaders who traveled thousands of miles did not care about drinking water and eating, so they drove to the training base and visited the young men who were still training, they shook hands with the players one by one, and had a heart-to-heart talk with the players' representatives, deeply understood their views on the finals, and encouraged them to strengthen their technical and tactical training, play at a high level and style in the game, fully carry forward the great power of socialism, and trample the capitalist football under their feet. In particular, the leaders praised the young general Qin Goode for his excellent performance, seriously asked him if he had any difficulties in his life in Germany - if so, we could not contact the German Chancellor to solve them for you - and encouraged him to continue to win glory for the country.

Finally, they also warmly patted head coach Gao Hongbo on the shoulder, encouraged him to make persistent efforts, and resolutely said: As long as he plays at the level of the Chinese team in the final, the World Cup journey of the national team will definitely let him continue to be at the helm.

Gao Hongbo certainly understands what it means to "kick out the level of the Chinese team".

So he decided to adopt a completely closed special training on the same day, blocking all the media from the training ground.

It is said that it is special training, but the Chinese team did not carry out high-intensity training, but only the simplest jogging and passing and receiving training to let the players get a proper rest.

With only two days to go until the final, instead of making a makeshift change, it would be better for the players to stock up on some fitness.

After all, the opponent in the final is the Japanese team they are most familiar with-

January 29, 2011, 10 p.m.

CCTV5 entered the finals preview program an hour in advance, and spent half an hour reviewing the Chinese team's performance of the entire Asian Cup, and then the picture turned to the front line.

"Audience friends, the 2011 Qatar Asian Cup final is about to officially start in 10 minutes, the opponents of the two sides in the final are the Chinese team and the Japanese team, this game is guided by the famous commentator Zhang Luzhang and I bring you live commentary." The one in charge of commenting on the finals is naturally the most heavyweight commentator, although Zhang Bin was not notified until two days ago, and the preparation was not perfect, but this did not affect his enthusiasm for commenting at all.

"After experiencing the defeat in the 2007 group stage, Chinese football has almost fallen into a trough in the past four years, Gao Hongbo's national team has given up all the veterans before 80, and a large number of young players have been used, this move was once regarded as 'training', but the youngest national team in history has overcome strong opponents all the way to the finals, this result should be beyond everyone's expectations, what do you say, Director Zhang?"

Zhang Lu nodded and smiled: "Hehe, to be honest, we didn't expect this inexperienced national team to be able to go so far, and they were almost forced into a desperate situation in the second round of the group stage, but these young players showed their tenacity and hard work, and reversed the game in various unfavorable situations, making the hosts become spectators, which is very admirable." ”

"Yes," Zhang Bin said, "Speaking of this national team, we have to mention Qin Good, born in 91, he is the youngest member of the team, and he is also the youngest person in the national team, but no one can deny his huge role in this competition, the Chinese team has a total of 3 group games and 2 knockout games before today, he has played 4 times, two of which are substitutes, and he has contributed 5 goals and 5 assists. ”

'Five goals, five assists? This ......" Zhang Lu was a little surprised.

"That's right. "The 2010-11 season was his first Bundesliga season, and his report card was 16 goals and 12 assists, and this year, after only half a season, he has scored 8 goals and 10 assists, so it can be said that he is not only a scorer who destroys the city, but also an assist who can send unselfish passes to his teammates." ”

"Oh," Zhang Lu opened his mouth and sighed, "So many goals and assists, it's really stable!" ”

"It's not just a stable dìng, he's also a big player," Zhang Bin couldn't control himself at all, "The first time he participated in an official game, it was the most dangerous time for the team, the 2009 Bundesliga relegation play-offs, Director Zhang may have heard of it." ”

"Ah, of course I knew in that game, he almost single-handedly saved Cottages."

"Yes," Zhang Bin smiled, "the following season, he led the team that had just been relegated to defeat Bayern Munich in the league, for a long time, Van Gaal had a headache when he saw him, and even took the initiative to reveal the rumors of wanting to poach before the game, trying to disturb the morale of Cartbus, but never changed the result." ”

"Hehe...... Zhang Lu also laughed, "I can make the Dutch coach Van Gaal bow his head, which shows that our players are indeed very good, and I hope he can also give the Japanese team a headache in this final." ”-

When Gao Hongbo was still doing the final pre-game mobilization in the locker room, he was very sensitive to the slightest bad atmosphere: whether it was old players like Du Weifeng, Shao Jiayi, and Qu Jiangbo, or young people like Deng Zhuoxiang, Hao Jun, and ** Peng, the players under him were extremely nervous.

Even Qin Goode, the kid known as a big-stage player, was adjusting his emotions with constant deep breaths.

"There's no need to force yourself to calm down completely," Gao Hongbo clapped his hands as he drew the players' attention, "It's just an Asian Cup final, there's nothing to be nervous about, at least...... We didn't have another 30-minute pre-match instruction, did they? ”

He has always been strict and rarely made a joke about his direct leader, and the players more or less smiled, even the team leader standing behind him was no exception.

"We've talked about the tactics of the Japanese team many times in the past few days, and I won't say more, but you just need to remember one thing: we are very strong and can defeat any opponent." He heard the staff outside the door reminding that the game was about to start, so he stood up and made a final mobilization to the captain of the team, "Jiayi, you have already won a runner-up in the Asian Cup in 04, do you want to win another one today?" ”

Shao Jiayi is the only player in this national team who has participated in the tournament 7 years ago, when the Asian Cup made him a household name, but in the end he lost the championship within reach, he stood up with the coach and shouted in a deep voice: "I just want the championship!" ”

"Goode," Gao Hongbo's gaze finally fell on Qin Goode, "I heard that Shinji Kagawa is the best player in the Bundesliga halfway, how much worse do you think you are than him?" ”

Qin Good, who was 19 years and five months old, laughed.

High guidance, the method of agitation is not for me......

Then he took another breath and followed Shao Jiayi out of the locker room.

The back in front of him was still tall and straight, unshaken.
