Chapter 914: The Decisive Battle Is Imminent (Five Watches)
As the Asian Cup final between China and Japan gets closer and closer, the fans of the two countries are also getting more and more excited, and they are most obvious on the Internet, and the arguments are very fierce.
Chinese fans believe that it is the normal result for the Chinese team to win the championship with their strength, while Japanese fans insist that they are the real kings of Asia!
Although the overall strength of the current Chinese team is stronger, it does not mean that the Chinese team will definitely win the game.
In this way, the two groups of people were very happy, and as time went on, more and more netizens joined in the quarrel, and even local and international students in China or Japan clashed.
It can be seen that the Asian Cup final between China and Japan has attracted the attention of fans of the two countries.
If Japan emerge victorious in the final, then they can prove themselves as the kings of the Asian Cup finals.
Therefore, the Japanese fans are especially looking forward to Japan beating China, and the Chinese fans' thoughts are more sloppy, since our strength is stronger than Japan, it is very normal to win the final, and besides...... You Japan are the kings of the Asian Cup finals, but our Iroh is the true king of the finals, winning every event he has participated in!
If it is said that the Japanese team won the final championship by a certain accident, then the Chinese team must have won the championship due to strength.
The final between China and Japan was preceded by the third and fourth place finals between South Korea and Australia, and in the end, South Korea narrowly defeated Australia 3:2 to win the third place in the Asian Cup with a goal from the substitute demon Son Heungmin.
The next morning, the hotels where the Chinese and Japanese teams were staying were surrounded by Asian media.
You can even see some mainstream European media reporters, including Marca, Torino Sport and Team Newspaper, which often mention Ayello in their reports, all of which sent reporters to Doha, Qatar, to conduct live interviews.
Of course, their arrival is not to say that the Asian Cup final appealed to them very much, but that Ayroh was very attractive to them.
You must know that the champion of this Asian Cup is to participate in the 2013 Confederations Cup in Brazil, and now the strength of the Chinese team is very good, fifth place in the World Cup last year, the world ranking hovers around 20, if you can win the Asian Cup again, then the international points will definitely soar, and it is not an unexpected result to rise to 10-15 in the ranking......
In addition to the enthusiastic media reporters from various countries, there are also many loyal Chinese fans who are cheering and cheering at the hotel where the Chinese team stayed.
Among them, the members of the "Dragon Team Fan Club" are organized and disciplined, they hold high the banners and slogans of "the Chinese team must win the Asian Cup" and stand next to the hotel, sometimes singing, sometimes chanting, very powerful, but also attracting the full attention of media reporters.
The final was played at 6 p.m., so both sides had plenty of time to make final preparations.
In fact, in a game like this, there is not much time for the team to practice tactics, and the most important thing is to restore the physical energy consumed by the players.
Especially the players who play in Europe, they all participate in half a season of competition and non-stop meetings with the national team to participate in the Asian Cup.
According to this situation, the Japanese team is more dominant, and their players do not develop much in Europe.
However, they played 120 minutes in the semi-finals with Australia three days ago, and the physical consumption was very serious, and the Chinese team's playing style is smart, it is to control the rhythm of the game on the field, and the opponent who runs a lot is always the opponent, they only need to pass and cut the run, and the physical consumption is much better.
Therefore, there are still many media who are optimistic about the Chinese team with better physical condition and superior strength.

The Saver Hotel is one of the few three-star hotels in Doha, because the city's per capita income is already disdainful of living in such low-grade hotels, they prefer to live in four-star and five-star hotels, and if Doha can have a Burj Al Arab hotel, it is estimated that wealthy Dohaites will not hesitate to choose.
However, for Chinese fans who come from afar, they can't afford to spend, especially those members of the 'Dragon Team Fan Club', many of whom are working-class.
In order to be able to come to Doha to enjoy the championship with their beloved Chinese team up close, these lovely fans have spent a lot of savings to come here, so they live in the cheapest hotels in Doha, if it is not due to the environment, they would prefer to stay in those guest houses that are equivalent to domestic ones, dozens of dollars a night.
President Jian Mangen and Vice President Liu Lei are relatively wealthy, but they have been here with the national team for more than 20 days, which is also a very high expense, which is quite heart-wrenching.
However, thinking that it is very likely to see the Chinese team win the Asian Cup tonight, their heartache has disappeared without a trace.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Jian Mangen gathered ten general leaders and held a short meeting together.
The requirements must be strictly implemented in accordance with the content of the meeting held the night before, so as to achieve the greatest encouragement for the Chinese team.
Soon, the ten general leaders convened ten more responsible persons, said important things three times, and so on, and distributed the tasks.
The entry of the 'Dragon Team Fan Club' is different from the past, many games usually enter the stadium two hours in advance, but this time, because of the need to arrange a special scene, through the application of the Chinese XX Football Association and the organizing committee, hundreds of fans were finally allowed to enter the stands belonging to Chinese fans in advance for decoration.
They placed the red and yellow mosaic boards they had prepared in advance under each seat in order of number, waiting for the start of the race.
For half an hour, the cadres of the 'Dragon Team Fan Club' placed all 20,000 mosaic boards under the seats.
After three more inspections, it was found that there was no serial number misplaced, and then other simple grandstand atmosphere was arranged.
At this time, Japanese fans came to the various entrances of the stadium to line up, waiting for admission.
At the same time, the bus to the Khalifa Stadium, the venue of the final, has stopped at the hotel where the Chinese team is staying.
The Chinese players also gathered in the lobby of the hotel, outside which were excited Chinese fans and well-equipped journalists.
A large part of them are domestic fans who have no hope of buying tickets for the finals, so they can only come here to see off the Chinese team, wishing them the championship trophy and a triumphant return.
Slogans such as "Come on the Chinese team" and "The Chinese team will win" have never stopped.
There were even radical Chinese fans holding banners and slogans that read "- Flip Little Japan" and "Torture and Torture Little Japan......
Before boarding the bus, the Chinese players waved to the fans.
Gao Lin also hooked up with Wang Chen, an intern reporter who hooked up with him from afar......
Amid the huge cheers of Chinese fans and the shutter of reporters, the bus in which the Chinese team was riding slowly closed the door and drove away from the hotel.
"Gotta do it-turn over little Japan!" The Chinese players on the bus listened to the cheering sound that gradually moved away until there was no more, and they clenched their fists and swore secretly.

When the Chinese team's bus arrived at the designated location at the Khalifa Stadium and stopped, thousands of Chinese fans gathered to cheer on the players in the car.
Most of these fans are fans who don't have tickets to watch the game, so they can only stay on the perimeter of the stadium and cheer for their national team.
An hour before the game, the Chinese team and the Japanese team players entered the stadium to warm up.
And at this time, the stands are basically full.
At least...... The stands belonging to Chinese fans are full.
The Chinese fans in the stands were all dressed in red, and the red phalanx on display looked extraordinary.
The Japanese fans at the other end of the pitch were equally impressive, wearing uniform blue jerseys that contrasted sharply with the red of the Chinese team.
It's as if the red flames and the blue water are facing each other......
On the periphery of the stadium, there are also a number of volunteers who help enthusiastic Chinese fans put on their national flag faces, and ...... It's all free.
Shen Fangjian, who was far away in the Beijing studio, said to the camera: "The players on both sides have entered the stadium to warm up, Duan Xuan, you say...... In the end, it was China or Japan that won the final? ”
Duan Xuan didn't think about it and said: "Of course it's our China, not only is our overall strength higher than the Japanese team, but also the captain Ailuo is in good shape, there is no problem with scoring, plus our backline has not been breached since the start of the Asian Cup, the result is ...... Glance. ”
"Haha, right...... I think so too. Shen Fangjian said.
The Chinese players sitting in front of the TV secretly said in their hearts: This is nature, our Chinese team is the best!
At the other end, in the studio in Tokyo, Japan, the screen is showing the Japanese team's path from the group stage to the final.
Except for the 5-0 victory over Saudi Arabia, Japan won only one goal in other games, which gave Japanese fans the feeling of fear, as if the promotion was just due to luck.
It wasn't until the semi-finals overtime that the Japanese players raised their arms and shouted on the field, and the camera returned to the studio, and the host Hao Ze said from the right: "It can be said that our road to promotion is very difficult, especially the 1/4 finals to eliminate Uzbekistan and the semi-finals Australia, it was the last moment of the goal that allowed us to advance, Nakata-kun, do you think we will be a little dangerous in the final?" ”
Guest Hidetoshi Nakata smiled: "Actually, this is our only advantage, compared to the Chinese team's strength advantage and smooth promotion, our promotion road is full of hardships, but also allows our players to tense their nerves to fight a tough battle, the Chinese team is different, they are very easy to qualify, did not experience the hardships of promotion at all, if we are in a stalemate with the Chinese team in the middle of the game, then to the latter part of the game, it is our opportunity!" ”
Ozer was overjoyed when he heard this: "According to Nakata-kun, we have a good chance of winning the championship?" ”
'Of course, the final is an opportunity for both sides.
