The Chinese team defeated the 2010 West Asian Championship and the Gulf Cup champion Kuwait 6:0, which surprised many media in West Asia, although the Chinese team was identified as the favorite before the start of the Asian Cup, but Kuwait's strength is not bad, their players' foot skills are very good, and they can effectively connect with each other, they are the best West Asian team at the end of last year, and the Asian Cup is the best team in the West Asian media at the beginning of this year.

But such a promising Kuwait team was beaten 6:0 by the Chinese team, and the West Asian media thought it was too incredible.

The strength of the West Asian team has declined significantly since the 2006 German World Cup, and the four direct qualifiers for the German World Cup in Asia are Japan, South Korea, Iran and Saudi Arabia, that is, two teams from East Asia and West Asia, but in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, all the four world qualifying finals were occupied by East Asian teams, and the play-off places were not obtained......

From this data, it can be easily seen that the strength of East Asian teams is significantly stronger than La Liga, and it is not surprising that China defeated Kuwait by six goals in the first round of the World Cup, and it is not surprising that teams that cannot participate in the World Cup are not at all, and the West Asian Championship and the Gulf Cup are not famous in East Asia at all, and many fans have not even heard of it, let alone influence.

Not long after the end of the game, the topic circle of using the new wolf Weibo to publish #The first round of the Asian Cup of the Chinese team # was occupied by tens of millions of fans, who expressed their inner pleasure, especially thinking of Ailuo's goal of leading the Chinese team to win the championship before the start of the game.

Those domestic stars who love football have also made relevant remarks, pushing the first round of the Chinese team's Asian Cup victory to the peak of the most round.

The next day, all the newspapers covering the Asian Cup were sold out, so many newspapers asked workers to work overtime to reprint, which is enough to see how encouraging the first round of the Asian Cup was to win.

The Chinese have always paid attention to the opening of the road, and the six-goal victory over Kuwait is a big red!

On this day, many Chinese fans who were previously hesitant to go to Qatar began to make up their minds, thinking that instead of waiting for good news at home, it would be better to go to the front line and enjoy the victory of the game with the national team until they won the first Asian Cup championship in the history of Chinese football!

If there is one, there will be two, and if there is two, there will be four, and if four becomes eight......

Many young fans with this idea immediately formed a trend and went to Doha!

China is full of joy in China, but Qatar, as the host, is not optimistic.

With FIFA President Sepp Blatter announcing the 2022 FIFA World Cup hosting to Qatar at its headquarters in Zurich on December 2 last year, the football atmosphere in the country is getting stronger and stronger.

Qatar has a buffer of nearly 12 years to prepare for the 2022 World Cup, so the Qatar Football Association has released a series of youth football development plans to prepare for the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

Just in 2007, Qatar successfully hosted the 2011 Asian Cup, and the Qatar Football Association is ready to use this Asian Cup as an alchemy stone to see how the national team is level.

Because Qatar is ready to invest nearly $60 billion in the 2022 World Cup to build a modern football stadium, and the investment behind it is even more innumerable, if the World Cup cannot get good results at that time, it will definitely be a big blow.

Fortunately, there is still more than a decade of buffer time, which is enough to develop a group of outstanding young players......

It is not ideal to want to impose interest on today's children, so the Qatar Football Association has put the idea on this Asian Cup.

Qatar's previous best result in the Asian Cup was the 2000 Asian Cup in Lebanon, where it qualified for the quarterfinals in the group stage.

So this time you will be at home to participate in the competition, at least you have to get a top four, right?

If it can really get the top four, it will have a huge role in promoting the Qatar Football Association's ten-year youth youth training plan in China.

Therefore, the Qatari media and the West Asian media are gradually optimistic about Qatar's results, but ...... People are not as good as heaven.

Qatar's prospective 2-0 defeat to Uzbekistan in their opening game was a detrimental prospect for them to qualify – and they will face favourites China in the second round.

The prospect of qualifying is extremely worrying, what about the imaginary top four?

However, the Chinese team defeated Kuwait by six goals in the first round, showing a strong prospect of winning the championship, so Qatari head coach Mechu had a headache, and according to the process of the game, as the number one star of the Chinese team, Ailo does not even have many opportunities to shine.

※※※

The day before the second round of the Chinese team's challenge to hosts Qatar, the world's mainstream media focused on Zurich, the headquarters of FIFA, where the winner of the first FIFA Ballon d'Or would be born.

As the first event to be co-organized by FIFA and France Football magazine, it is natural that the Chinese media and some Asian media will focus on Zurich, and it is a pity for them that the former European Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year winner Elo did not make it to the final three candidates.

However, Iello and Zhang Linpeng were named in the FIFA Ballon d'Or Awards, and Iroh was selected as a candidate for Goal of the Year, when he faced goalkeeper Manuel Neuer's header in the first round of last year's World Cup against Germany, and fired a non-stop half-volley straight into the corner of the goal from the German team's half-circle arc.

It was also South Africa's best goal at the World Cup, and it was no surprise that it was named FIFA Goal of the Year in 2010.

There are four rivals for Aillo, the first is Altentop receiving a long pass from the middle circle and picking up the Kazakh defender on the sideline of the left penalty area, and scoring with a zero-angle volley; The second candidate came at the World Cup in South Africa, when Dutch captain Van Bronckhorst scored with a long-range shot over 40 metres that grazed the right-hand post and crossbar. The third is Robben's successive breakthroughs on the right side of Schalke 04 in the Bundesliga last season to score in the penalty area; The final competitive goal came when Messi scored from a tight angle in the league against Espanyol.

Each of these five goals has its own characteristics, and it will be up to the final selection to determine which goal will win the Goal of the Year title.

As early as when the Chinese team was preparing for the first Asian Cup group stage with Kuwait, Ailo received an official invitation from FIFA and invited him to participate in the FIFA annual awards ceremony, but at this time, the Asian Cup was in full swing in Qatar, and it was obviously inappropriate to run back and forth, plus the group stage with Qatar the day after the FIFA award ceremony, so Ailo refused.

FIFA officials are not surprised, after all, the Asian Cup is underway, and it would be an accident if Iroh could still accept the invitation to participate in the FIFA gala, and the previous invitation was just polite, and he had already been mentally prepared.

The 2010 FIFA Ballon d'Or ceremony took place on January 11, 2011 at 7pm CET.

Because this is the reason for the cooperation between FIFA and the capital of "French football", more celebrities and superstars in the film and music world have been invited than in the past few years.

The appetizer of the FIFA Ballon d'Or ceremony was the announcement of the Team of the Year, with two of the best positions in the Chinese media spotlight, the best goalkeeper being Iker Casillas, the captain who won the world title with Spain, the four defenders were Lahm, Pique, Puyol and Zhang Linpeng, the midfielders were Xavi, Iniesta and Messi, and the forward three were Elo, Cristiano Ronaldo and David Villa.

There are trophies for each position in the FIFA Team of the Year team, but Chinese internationals Iroh and Zhang Linpeng were unable to come to the Zurich Opera House because they participated in the Asian Cup, and they were replaced by Aylo and Zhang Linpeng's club teammates David Silva and Terry, respectively.

The second award presented at the ceremony was the President's Contribution Award at the former FIFA Annual Awards Ceremony, which was awarded to the President of the South African Football Association, Tutu.

The third award was the FIFA Best Women's Coach award, and the three nominees were Ned, Mynat and Sundhag, with Neder and Mynat both German and Sundhag being Swede, and finally German women's football head coach Neder was awarded the Best Women's Coach award.

The best men's coach was awarded the best men's coach, and veteran coach Alex Ferguson, who led United to another treble before retiring, beat World Cup winner Bosque and Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola to win the award.

The FIFA Ballon d'Or Fair Play award was awarded to the Haitian U17 women's national team.

The next award was the last focus of attention in the Chinese media, as the awards presented were ...... Puskas Goal of the Year Award!

Moreover, the selection of this award is also the last attention of the Chinese media to the annual FIFA Ballon d'Or awards gala.

At the same time, it is also the focus of attention of the Chinese players who are going to sleep in the hotel where the Chinese team stays.

Feng Xiaoting, Wang Xiaolei, Zhang Linpeng, Gao Lin, Chen Tao...... Everyone else sat in Ello's room and waited for the results to be announced on the Zurich side.

Iello himself was also a little nervous, and his biggest rival was Messi's goal in the penalty area, which was a bit difficult.

In order to save time, there was no guest to announce the award, but after the whole process of the five wonderful goals was played, the five goal pictures flashed frequently, and the picture was finally fixed in Iro's non-stop half-volley in the front of the center circle, which means that Iroh won the 2010 FIFA Golden Ball Award Puskas Goal of the Year Award.

"Handsome!"

Everyone in the room raised their arms and shouted, hugging Iro.
