Judging by the post-match statistics, this game is really weird everywhere.

Whether it is the possession rate, the number of passes, the number of threats, and the number of shots, they are all completely one-sided, especially the comparison of shooting data is a shocking 28-3! The German team had 28 shots on goal, while the Chinese team had only three. Among them, the German team hit thirteen shots in the goal, and the Chinese team ...... Not once!

And the final result was 0:0, which in turn means that Yan Junling resolved thirteen dangerous situations in this game and made thirteen effective saves.

Such a strong performance can be said to have eclipsed the stars of the German team on this night. The award was well deserved.

While the coaches and players of the Chinese team were collectively in a frenzied celebration, the Chinese team and the German team exchanged blank papers, and this result, which absolutely made everyone fall through the glasses, has been transmitted to the world by the media in absolutely crazy words.

However, compared with the result of the Chinese team's upset and advance to the top 16, not only the vast majority of European and American fans, but even some Chinese fans admit and review that they really underestimate the Chinese team.

can join the feast of the World Cup, and there is really no weak team. Many journalists in Europe's mainstream media thought so. Maybe it's time to look at the Chinese team in a different light.

As for Chinese journalists, they don't have much to think about for the time being. They frantically chased after the players who rushed to interview the Chinese team.

As the best player on the field of the Chinese team, Yan Junling became the number one focus of all reporters after the game. Almost everyone asks a similar question: Why are you so awesome tonight?

For the first time, the media rushed to interview him, and seeing that the microphone had almost touched his lips, Yan Junling was still a little nervous at this time. The goalkeeper is not easy to be sought after by the media under normal circumstances, and today's position, so many reporters are flocking to it, whether it is in the club or the national team, Yan Junling is the first time to encounter it.

"The main thing is to be excited, to stimulate me to play at a super level, after all, to be able to face to face with these world-class strikers, for a goalkeeper, there may not be many opportunities in a lifetime."

A reporter immediately asked, "Is it just excited?" In the face of this decisive battle involving life and death and the future situation, are you really not nervous at all? ”

Yan Junling touched his nose and confessed, "Well...... It was a bit of a few days before the game, but I would like to thank Zhihao for sharing a word with me. ”

"What is it?" All the reporters became interested at once, and they liked this kind of behind-the-scenes story the most, especially when put together with the unpopular results, the popularity increased sharply, and the topic was infinite.

"You better ask Zhihao about this, I look very boastful when I say it here, and I still have to be low-key." Yan Junling originally felt that there was a lot of pressure in front of so many reporters, but now he just found an excuse and hid directly.

More than 20 reporters stood on the ground and looked at each other, and it took about half a minute before a reporter reacted and asked, "Where is Zhihao?" Who saw him? ”

However, at this time, Wen Zhihao had already entered the locker room and celebrated the temporary victory with everyone. Naturally, what Wen Zhihao said to Yan Junling is an eternal mystery to the media. Maybe many years later, looking back on the Chinese team's World Cup journey, it will be regarded as a behind-the-scenes footage by fans, but the truth is only known to the two parties.

……

With the end of the third round of group games in Group G and Group H after the Chinese team, all the teams in the round of 16 of the World Cup have also been released. They are Uruguay, Russia, Spain, Portugal, France, Denmark, Argentina, Iceland, Brazil, Costa Rica, Germany, Belgium, England, Colombia, Poland and China.

The worst of the eliminated teams were Rakitic and Luka Modric's Croatia, who were beaten in direct talks with Iceland and have a squad that is at least the last 16 of the World Cup, and has failed to qualify from the group stage in two consecutive World Cups.

As in every World Cup, there are no surprises that European and South American teams dominate the absolute mainstream, with 14 of the 16 seats on the two continents with the most developed levels of football. The Chinese team and the Costa Rica team are the "Asian representatives" and "Central and North American representatives" respectively.

But Asia and North and Central America are not the worst, at least one seed remains. The four teams in Africa were the worst, having been wiped out after the group stage.

The eight groups of the quarter-finals are also determined according to the rules of the two adjacent groups, Uruguay vs. Portugal, Russia vs. Spain, France vs. Iceland, Costa Rica vs. Germany, and Belgium vs. Poland.

All of the above matches have nothing to do with Chinese fans, who are already excited for China's first World Cup knockout opponents.

The Chinese team's one-eighth final opponent is the first in Group E, the Samba Army! Five Star Brazil!

Regarding Brazil, there are many intersections with Chinese football, but on the stage of the World Cup, the first thing that comes to mind is the group stage of the 2002 World Cup between the Chinese team and the Brazilian team. It was the first time that Chinese football faced the world's top teams in an official competition, and Scolari's "3R" combination was an invincible combination in the entire history of world football. For the Chinese team in that game, except for the two moments when Zhao Junzhe was on the goalpost and Xu Yunlong forced Robert Carlos on the wing, the rest were almost bitter memories. That was the first time that Chinese football really recognized the gap with the world's top level.

Time has passed, facing the Brazilian team again, or the World Cup knockout round, although the fans' first reaction is that the Chinese team's World Cup journey may end here, but immediately flashed a little bit of luck with a fluke of expectations.

The strength of the two teams is not the same as in the past, Brazil no longer has a 3R combination, the most threatening strong point in the front court is Neymar and Coutinho, and the Chinese team has Wen Zhihao, who is already a quasi-world-class star, should be able to fight with Brazil, right? Maybe you don't have to lose!

As long as Wen Zhihao is here, no matter how strong the opponent is, everyone will be lucky, because he is good at turning all kinds of impossibilities into possibilities, and then let all those who have formed a mindset self-examine and self-correct in time.

Of course, from another side, because of the appearance of Wen Zhihao, it has further fueled the YY of the Chinese media without a lower limit, and the fans can't stand it, calling for the media to be rational, and a famous reporter immediately spoke on his personal Weibo: The national team with Wen Zhihao is different from the past. Everyone must change their concept in time, and in the face of any opponent, they must have confidence in the national team.

Well, Wen Zhihao doesn't know when he has become a "shield" for some of the Chinese media who brag about not paying taxes.
