Al Galafa Stadium in Doha, 4:11 p.m. Qatar local time, a sunny afternoon. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Standing in the stadium, Li Guo put up a pergola to see, the audience is sparse, this stadium has more than 20,000 seats, because the seats in the front row are removable, so the maximum capacity is more than 40,000 people.

But today, in a group stage of the Asian Cup held in the afternoon, there were only more than 7,000 people at the scene, of which about 500 were Chinese fans who came from domestic charter flights, and the rest were Qataris, and how many of these people bought tickets, and how many of them were officially organized? Li Guo didn't know.

In fact, the last few Asian Cups, except for those held in China in 2004, have almost all been dissatisfied, so this is still very normal.

"It's a stadium atmosphere, and I've played more than any teaching game in Europe," Dutt said.

Chen An smiled, the Asian ball market is incomparable with Europe, and even if it is daily training in Germany, it is very common for 2,000 people to come.

"The competition with Kuwait is similar to the teaching competition, and the level of the opponent is between professional and amateur," Li said. ”

In such a game, Li Guo sent most of the substitute players, in fact, the starting list was known by Li Guo two days ago.

Goalkeeper - Wang Dalei.

Backline - Zhang Linpeng, Feng Xiaoting, Li Weifeng, Sun Xiang.

Midfielders - Shao Jiayi, Hao Junmin, Qu Bo.

Single striker - Yu Dabao, Gao Lin, Pu Shuang.

When the starting list was submitted to the AFC official, the text reporter at the scene shouted, "Is this still the Chinese team?" ”

This is the Chinese team, but it is the second team of China, and it is normal for Asian reporters not to know each other, because many of the players in it have basically not played since Li Guo took office, including friendly matches. So in the first game of the Asian Cup, it was still a bit strange for Li Guo to discharge such a strange formation.

In fact, the Chinese team has also done a lot of strange things, such as once the Chinese team wore a jersey when playing in the second half, Fan Zhiyi wore Li Weifeng's number, Li Jinyu wore Zhang Yuning's number, and so on.

But this time is different, this time the purpose of the Chinese team is not to disturb the morale of the opponent's army, but to train troops.

In the previous life, Li Guo, the first match of the Chinese team in the Asian Cup, was watched at home, and it was Zhang Linpeng who opened the record for the Chinese team at that time.

And whether it is in a previous life or this time, one thing is the same, that is, Li Guo's impression of Kuwaiti players is zero.

The only thing that can distinguish the characteristics of the opposing players is the beard, some of the Kuwaiti players have big beards, some do not, this is Li Guo's only impression of the opponent.

A Kuwaiti player in a blue jersey walked out of the tunnel and was surrounded by a Chinese player in a fiery red jersey, which was particularly eye-catching.

Before the game, the national anthem sounded, this is the first time that the Chinese national anthem has been played in the Asian Cup, what Li Guo and his players have to do is to make the national anthem sound for a long time.

After the start of the game, the Chinese team completely controlled the pace of the game, and the blue Kuwaiti players were all cowered in their own half one by one. If you look at it from above, it looks like a flame encircling a puddle of water.

And when the sea wants to burst out of the flames, the flames can always give a closer encirclement, and finally in the opening 5 minutes, the Chinese team scored, this time it was Zhang Linpeng, who shot after inserting from the side.

The Chinese team led 1-0.

Kuwait's mood swings after conceding the goal are still very large, they can accept losing the goal, they can also accept losing, but it is still a bit embarrassing to concede the goal so early, although they often play a big score of more than 5 goals in the Asian Cup, but Kuwait does not want it to happen to themselves.

After conceding the goal, the Kuwaiti players obviously became more brutal, and they had fewer scruples when making movements, but the Chinese team's short passes were very fast, so that Kuwait's roughness had no place to use.

The ball came to the feet of Pu Shuang, the opponent was very weak, and Pu Shuang was a person who liked to perform, he took the ball and did two bicycles in a row, passing two Kuwaiti players, when the third player pounced, Pu Shuang did not pass the ball, and when the fourth Kuwaiti player pounced again, Pu Shuang was still dribbling the ball.

As a result, in 2002, Denilson's bizarre scene against half of the Turkish team was repeated in the group stage of the 2011 Asian Cup.

Kuwait did not lose their minds, they did not pounce on the fifth and sixth players, Pu Shuang saw the right time, passed the ball to the middle, Gao Lin rushed to the horse, and pushed the goal.

The Chinese team led 2-0.

While the Chinese players were still celebrating, there was an emergency on the field, and the Kuwaiti players stopped Pu Shuang on the grounds that they felt that Pu Shuang had humiliated them.

I still remember when Pirlo played Pagliuca, the former Italian international with a spoon penalty, all the Bologna players surrounded Pirlo, thinking that he had insulted the old Italian international.

Professional players are like this, everyone eats this bowl of rice, you can score goals, but you can't humiliate me, and Pu Shuang's practice of playing half of Kuwait's team with juggling moves makes Kuwaiti boys unable to suppress the fire anymore.

The Australian referee hurried over to deal with it, fortunately the two sides did not move, in the face of a few bearded angry eyes, Pu Shuang was just laughing, this kind of game Pu Shuang can't look down on, he was born for a higher stage, the players on both sides persuaded each other, and the situation quickly calmed down.

In the second half, Li Guo simply replaced Pu Shuang and replaced him with Ji Ke, Pu Shuang's technical characteristics are easy to arch fire on the court, and it is better to replace the unpretentious Ji Ke.

Sure enough, in the second half, Kiko smashed two more headers into the game, and the score became 4-0, at this time the bearded men of Kuwait did not have the fire of the first half, and they were probably convinced and wilted, just like frosted eggplants.

Finally, in stoppage time, Hao Junmin put the icing on the cake and scored another goal, and the Chinese team won the first game 5-0 in the first game, temporarily ranking first in Group A with the advantage of goal difference.

In the mixed interview area after the game, Li Guo praised Park Shuang in an interview, "He is a phenomenal player, a player who is destined to be great." ”

The reporter smiled heartily, and knew what it meant, in fact, the word phenomenal came from English, and people who don't watch the ball don't understand it very well, but people who watch the ball will easily understand, and there is a similar pronunciation in Spanish, for example, Maradona likes to repeat this pronunciation when evaluating Messi.

The interview is very brief, in fact, such a one-sided game is very boring, there is no suspense, just like a teaching competition, the only highlight may be the Chinese team likes to pedal the No. 99.

The upcoming match will be different, with the Chinese team facing the hosts. (To be continued.) )
