Chapter 1173: Happy Fans
The biggest contributor to the Chinese team's ability to beat Germany in the quarter-finals was undoubtedly the captain of Aylo, whose two goals and one assist belonged to the whole game, so he was undoubtedly the best on the spot.
Therefore, when the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, all the Chinese media people ran to Ailo excitedly!
Four years ago, the Chinese team in the World Cup in South Africa was defeated by the Argentine team led by Messi, stopped in the semi-finals, and the best result was fixed in the quarterfinals, and finally ranked fifth because of goal difference and goals.
But this time it stood out from the 1/4 finals and entered the semi-finals!
That's a huge breakthrough, and it's not at all compared to the top four outside of the top four!
In the Olympic Games, medals are awarded to the top three.
Even if the Chinese team can't enter the finals in the end, they can at least compete for a third place!!
But at this time, the self-confident Chinese media never thought that the Chinese team would be eliminated from the finals, because whether it is the host Brazil or Colombia, there is no way to compare with the current Chinese team.
Especially in last year's Brazilian Confederations Cup, the Chinese team led by captain Ailo won the final championship!
If we were able to beat Brazil last year to win the eventual title, why can't we win the World Cup a year later?
As for the excited Chinese media, Iro, as the captain, did not resist, but was very cooperative in accepting interviews with domestic media.
In China, there was a proverb a long time ago that if you don't return to your hometown, it's like walking at night in brocade.
I have worked hard to lead the Chinese team to the final four of the World Cup, and we should let more Chinese know that nothing is impossible in this world, as long as you work hard, any impossible can be possible!
Of course, Pep Guardiola, the head coach who led the Chinese team to the semi-finals, was also warmly welcomed by the media, in stark contrast to the German head coach Loew, who was only interviewed by a handful of media outlets.
However, his interest did not seem to be high, and he only dealt with it perfunctorily.
As a world-class young coach, Pep Guardiola understands Loew's feelings very well, and when he was in charge of Barcelona three years ago, Loew should have felt like this now.
Many times, in the same situation, it is possible to empathize.
The game was lost, but the demeanor could not be lost, even if Loew's mood was terrible, he was not rude, and in the face of Guardiola's comfort, he opened his mouth and pretended to cheer easily: "Come on, Josep, I hope the Chinese team can go further and further, go to the end, and stand on the highest podium!" ”
However, Guardiola did not expect Loew to say such a thing, so he was a little slow to react, but Loew did not wait for him to react and turned away.
Because...... He still has players waiting for him to comfort.
Gotze, who is playing in the World Cup for the first time, is already crying like a child......
And the other players weren't much better.
※※※
While Loew comforted his players, Gao Lin who played for Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga, von Xiaoting of Borussia Dortmund and Hao Junmin who played for Schalke 04 were comforting their teammates at the club.
They both played at last year's World Cup in South Africa and know how painful it feels to be knocked out, so what they need most at this time is encouragement and support.
It's not about showing off, it's about heroes cherishing heroes.
In fact, Iello also wanted to comfort the German players, but there were too many enthusiastic reporters around him, and he had to give up in the end.
As time passed, the German players left the pitch in frustration and walked to the players' tunnel and into the dressing room, leaving space for the winners, or rather...... Out of sight is out of sight.
After all, watching the Chinese players who advanced to the semifinals of this World Cup are celebrating wantonly, it is also a kind of physical and mental torment.
Five minutes later, Iroh and others said goodbye to the media, whether it was the players of the game or the players who did not play, they all gathered together, waved to the fans in the stands hand in hand, and thanked them for their continuous chanting throughout the game.
Looking at the signaling players, the Chinese fans in the stands erupted into even louder cheers, and the whole stadium erupted into huge cheers again, and quickly swept the whole field......
Many fans here watched the 1/4 finals between the Chinese team and Argentina four years ago, when the Chinese team lost to Argentina and was unfortunately eliminated from the top four, which was very distressing.
Now that I can advance to the semi-finals, the excitement in my heart cannot be described in words, so I can only express it with my voice and body.
Among them, the cheers for captain Iroh were the loudest.
No way, who made Ailo the most important part of the Chinese team's promotion to the semifinals?
With an astonishing nine goals scored in five World Cup games, an average of nearly two goals per game, it can be said that without Irohlo, the Chinese team would not have advanced to the semi-finals!
The focus of Chinese journalists has always been on the Chinese team, they keep pressing the shutter button in their hands, saving these beautiful moments in the memory card, they know that aside from tomorrow's sales, years later, this Chinese team is enough to make any Chinese proud!
If you were to ask which country was the most unhappy about journalists at this time, the correct answer would certainly not be the German media, but ...... Japan and South Korea.

As the time passed, the stands at the Maracanã Stadium gradually became empty and quieter, until at the end of the day, there was no sound, and the turf workers could clearly hear the sound of cars coming from the road.
At the same time, thousands of miles away in China, it is the middle of the night, but no fan can sleep quietly because ...... They were so excited!
Twelve years ago, South Korea reached the semi-finals with the help of referees, creating the best result of an Asian team in the World Cup, and now it is ...... China defeated Germany to enter the semi-finals, equaling this record, and according to the current state of the Chinese team, if nothing else, there is no problem in advancing to the final.
Under this possibility, which Chinese can calm down?
Football is the world's number one sport, and the Chinese team can become the top existence in this sport, as a Chinese, pride is the most fundamental!
On this night, the land of China was cheering and screaming.
In every city, in every community, you can hear irrepressible cheers......
The camera returns to Brazilian soil, and it is undoubtedly happy to be able to get close to the Chinese fans of the national team.
So they followed from the Maracanã Stadium to the hotel where the Chinese team stayed, and they enthusiastically made the already hot city of Rio de Janeiro even hotter.
