Although the Chinese team unfortunately lost the game, Gao Jun was highly praised, scoring twice in the first game of the World Cup and being named the best of the match, which is enough to prove his current strength, and at the age of he is not yet 18 years old, his potential is even more difficult to imagine. Although Australia's Cahill also scored two goals in this game, everyone can see that Gao Jun played a much greater role in the game than Cahill, and Cahill is now 26 years old, and his physical condition is relatively mediocre, and his potential cannot be compared to Gao Jun at all.

After the game, Gao Jun was interviewed by Germany's largest sports magazine "Kicker", unlike Charlotte, the beautiful reporter of "Team Newspaper", the reporter sent by "Kicker" to interview him was a little old man Wilhelm, who was not amazing

"It's a shame to have a good time winning today, but you have every chance of winning." William first expressed his sympathy for the Chinese team and Gao Jun with a regretful face.

In this regard, Gao Jun replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "It's a pity, but our team does have a lot of weaknesses, and it is not strong enough to win the Australian team, so it is reasonable to lose this game." The characteristics of the Chinese team and the Australian team are a bit restrained, if one side performs better, it is easy to beat the opponent to the ground, but today we did not collapse under the extreme disadvantage of falling behind by three goals in the opening game, and even tied the score for a while, which makes me very proud. ”

William's eyes lit up suddenly, and he asked on the topic, "Is it because there were differences of opinion within the team at that time that the Chinese team had a disconnect after the equalizer?" ”

Gao Jun didn't want to talk about the contradictions within the national football team in front of outsiders. immediately denied it, "The disconnect is just because some of our players are not physically exhausted, and you also know that the psychological pressure caused by falling behind for a long time will greatly accelerate the physical exertion, and the weather is really hot."

The focus of Willian's question today was not the Chinese team, so he didn't chase after it. Instead, he took the opportunity to cut to the topic, "Although the Chinese team lost, your personal performance is still dazzling, and these two wonderful goals also make you the top scorer in this World Cup."

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, it's just tied for first place, and several players have scored two goals!" , Gao Jun immediately pushed off the high hat given by William.

William burst out laughing and changed his words. "Well, it's true that it's just a tie for first place, but in terms of the excitement and difficulty of the goal, no one should dispute that you're in first place."

"But in a game where you lose, the value of the goal is at least halved." Gao Jun spread his hands and replied.

"Well, we're not arguing about that anymore." William showed a somewhat helpless expression. But he immediately asked a more sensitive question, "If you're in a stronger national team." You have a lot of hope of winning the World Cup, but now you haven't even qualified from the group, do you regret that? ”

Gao Jun's face did not change much, but his tone replied very firmly, "I have always been proud of being a Chinese, not to mention just losing the first game." It doesn't mean that we have completely lost hope of qualifying. ”

"Even Australia, the weakest team in the group, lost, do you still think that the Chinese team can beat Croatia and draw with Brazil at the same time?" William couldn't help but laugh.

When Gao Jun heard this, his face was slightly displeased, and he snorted coldly. "Football is round, it is possible to be a qiē, I would rather die in battle than be scared to death!"

"Well said, then I wish you success! I also wish you even more excellent in the next table! William laughed when he heard this, and after answering a few more questions, he ended the interview and said goodbye to Gao Jun. Originally, Willian wanted to ask questions such as the outlook for next season's Bundesliga, but seeing that Gao Jun was focused on the national team, he didn't ask.

The media that interviewed Gao Jun was far more than "Kicker" magazine, and if it weren't for the national team's rejection of most of the interviews, Gao Jun wouldn't have thought about training normally

There are far fewer media reporters who ask to interview Alihan than Gao Jun, but the harshness of the words is far from being comparable to those interviews accepted by Gao Jun, especially those from the domestic media, who almost pointed at Alihan's neck and scolded, "You idiot, hurry up and get out of class!" "That's it

However, Alihan was really tough, not only insisting at the press conference that the loss in the first game was completely bad luck and not a tactical mistake, but also simply engaged in closed training in the following years, which made those reporters who were bent on digging up some news material, especially domestic reporters (foreign reporters generally do not cover such details about the Chinese team). As a result, various domestic media even blackened Alihan to death, although this is completely "playing the piano to the cow", and people can't understand it at all. Speaking of which, Alihan has been in China for a while, if you want to learn Chinese at all, the reason why you have never thought of learning it, in addition to the fact that Chinese characters are really difficult to learn, not knowing Chinese characters can turn a blind eye to the media's words may also be an important reason

In fact, in the next few days, Alihan's closed training for the national football team was not entirely to retaliate against the media, but also because during this period of time, the national football team specially carried out set-piece training, and after realizing the lack of his ability to attack, the "hidden weapon" of set-pieces was obviously valued by Alihan, and if he wanted to have obvious effects in a short period of time, only set-piece training could be done. However, once the set-piece tactics are known by the opponent, they are unlikely to have much effect, and if they are not done well, they will be self-defeating, so it is very important to keep them secret. In particular, Alihan is no longer the time to come to the Chinese team, he knows very well how there is no lower limit for Chinese journalists, and even many people will sell information like the opponents of the national football team in exchange for the right to interview, or even more direct benefits

Shortly after China's first match, South Korea and Saudi Arabia also played their first match of the tournament, with Saudi Arabia drawing 2-2 with Tunisia, while South Korea won their first World Cup win against Togo from Africa 2-1. South Korea was suddenly jubilant, and the South Korean media took the opportunity to blow it up, saying that South Korean football is the real first in Asia, and China and Japan have just achieved good results in some unimportant games, how can they be compared with the South Korean football team that has repeatedly achieved good results in the World Cup?

There are even reporters from South Korean media who interviewed Gao Jun out of the mentality of taking the opportunity to show off, hoping that Gao Jun would say something to praise Korean football, but the shameless appearance of their villain was really unbearable for Gao Jun, and finally Gao Jun replied angrily, "Yes, in the last World Cup, I won the fourth place by relying on the home whistle, and this World Cup won the Togo team that was infighting because of the appearance fee, which is indeed a success"

This is a hornet's nest, South Korean media have accused Gao Jun of being jealous of "the great achievements of Korean football", but many Japanese fans have made a lot of remarks on the Internet in support of Gao Jun, and sure enough, the relationship between the three East Asian countries is "Sino-Japanese friendship depends on South Korea, and Sino-South Korean friendship depends on Japan." ”

In fact, Gao Jun is already merciful, in order to avoid being punished by FIFA together, Gao Jun only said "home whistle" and did not say "black whistle", but who knew that South Koreans were so narrow-minded? There are even South Korean reporters who came to interview Gao Jun, just to ridicule him to his face: "Chinese who have not even scored a point in the World Cup have the right to laugh at South Korean football that has achieved outstanding results?" ”

For this question, Gao Jun could only be speechless for a while, after all, there is no excellent results as confidence, it is meaningless to just talk about it, only by playing the next game well, can those sticks shut up. However, contrary to the opinions of many media, Gao Jun believes that the Croatian team is not as strong as it seems, on the one hand, because the Croatian team has not won a game in the group stage in history, and on the other hand, because the current Croatian team has a lot of flaws.

The Croatian team in the 2006 World Cup is in a stage of scarcity, a large number of famous players have retired, and those who have left behind are quite old, and although there are many potential good seedlings among the young people, such as the young player Modric, who has now become an important substitute for the Croatian team, he has not grown up enough to provoke the beam. The worst thing is that this team does not have a qualified organizer, and their attacking power is not enough. In Gao Jun's view, Croatia's real strength may not be as good as the Australian team, but they are more famous, and they can't lower their stature like the Australian team, so they are actually not as difficult to deal with as the underrated Australian team.

But for the Chinese team, there is also a difficulty in this game, that is, the Chinese team must go all out to win, even a draw means that the Chinese team will bid farewell to this World Cup in advance, which is a bit worrying for the national football team, which has always been a big problem.

However, what makes Gao Jun a little happy is that in the past few days, many media have created a public opinion offensive after learning about the pre-game mobilization meeting, and the senior brother Hao Cannon once again took out the painful memories of 97 to bombard the Football Association, which seems to have created a certain pressure on those people, and they can not see their shadows on the training ground of the national football team in the past two days, which is a big blessing for the preparation of the national football team. It seems that the media can also play a positive role if it is used well (to be continued......
