Qin Xiong stood in place, looking at the spectacular red in the stands of the stadium.

He had never seen so many Chinese fans in the stands when playing in a foreign country.

I have never seen Chinese fans feel like they are partying and really enjoying football.

The corners of Qin Xiong's mouth rose, and he smiled.

But the vision was blurred.

I don't know if it's sweat or tears that slip down my cheeks, maybe both.

Torres walked over and put his arm around Qin Xiong's shoulders and whispered comfort.

He was wrong.

Spain's golden boy didn't understand it at all, and Qin Xiong didn't need to say much.

"The match between China and Spain in the quarterfinals of the World Cup is over, and the Spanish team defeated the Chinese team 2:0 with goals from Villa and Torres.

The Chinese team stopped in the quarterfinals of the World Cup.

It's a result we're proud of, and before heading into the World Cup, we probably just want the team to play properly and not even expect to get out of the group.

But the Chinese team has created a new height for Chinese football on the World Cup stage, and we are part of the top eight.

We are proud of every Chinese player, proud!

They let the five-star red flag flutter on the World Cup stage and make China the focus of the world.

They will go down in history and become an eternal memory in the hearts of all Chinese fans.

We saw Team Qin standing on the field, he was laughing, and he seemed to be crying.

Why?

We can't see through the inner world of the Qin team, as the captain of the Chinese team, he is undoubtedly the greatest player and captain in the history of Chinese football!

Perhaps all the fans who love the Qin team will feel unwilling for him.

In five World Cup games, Qin scored six goals and is still the top scorer in the World Cup.

With the strength of the Qin team, if he is a member of the first-class team, he will have a great chance to win the Hercules Cup in his career.

But he is a Chinese player. He went all out to the end, but he could only stop in the quarterfinals, and it was an absolute disadvantage, he must have felt bad in his heart, we can understand it.

Team Qin's smile at the moment was not bitter, I guess he was proud. He should have no regrets, he has shocked the world, and he has also led the Chinese team to shock the world!

The Qin team will not be knocked down, he is just feeling nostalgic at this time, we believe that the next time we see the Qin team on the field, he will still be the Qin team that is extremely powerful in the eyes of all of us, the Qin team that makes all opponents fearful!

The World Cup of the Chinese team is over, and we will continue to pay attention to the movements of the Chinese team in the future, because we are about to put into the new phase of construction. The Chinese team has come to a fork in the road of development, and I hope that the Chinese team can walk on the right path and prosper!

Four years later, we'll be back! ”

The Chinese team eventually gathered around Qin Xiong, and everyone expressed their gratitude to the fans in the stands on the sidelines.

Alihan also walked onto the pitch, hugging and talking to each of the players, as if to say goodbye.

The Spanish team soon left the field and they were ready to prepare for the semi-finals.

The Chinese team has come to an end on the World Cup stage.

Alihan summed up the match in his post-match press conference.

"I don't think this defeat was unexpected. The huge difference in strength between the Chinese team and the Spanish team led to a normal result, and the most advanced team in modern football taught the Chinese team a lesson. In the past many years, the Chinese team has lacked the opportunity to play against the world's top opponents, so when we meet Spain on the pitch and have no power to fight back, this phenomenon is inevitable.

But I'm still proud of the Chinese team and I think they did a perfect score, especially when they were behind for most of the time. The Chinese team did not give up, but we failed to create a miracle after all. ”

When a reporter asked Alihan whether he would renew his contract with the Chinese Football Association after the World Cup, Alihan breathed a sigh of relief and said in a regretful tone: "I am very happy to have coached the Chinese team for seven years, and now it's time to say goodbye." I think it's time for my next challenge, after the World Cup, when my contract with the Chinese Football Association expires, I will no longer be the head coach of the Chinese team, this time in charge of the Chinese team is a wonderful one, I will remember it for a lifetime, I have gained a lot of experience and formed good friendships with many players. ”

Alihan's resignation announcement will not affect the Chinese team's locker room.

Because as we all know, the spiritual leader of the Chinese team, the real soul, is tied to Qin Xiong's body!

Qin Xiong changed into casual clothes after bathing in the locker room, and he walked out of the locker room with his teammates, he did not go to the mixed area for interviews, but reporters flocked to him.

At the exit of the passage away from Ellis Park, reporters were rambling to interview him.

"Are you happy with your performance?"

"Since the Chinese team has reached the goal of participating in the World Cup, why are you unhappy?"

"After Alihan, which head coach do you think will be able to lead the Chinese team?"

Qin Xiong was interviewed by CCTV sports reporters before boarding the bus.

He replied simply: "I can only say that this is a World Cup that we have no regrets, it is not easy for the Chinese team to reach the quarterfinals, I hope the fans will not be too disappointed, they can continue to cheer for the Chinese team, give us support, and the rest, we will have time to think and discuss in the future."

Personally, I'm not unhappy, I can only say that I'm a player, it's impossible to be happy after losing a game, I'm calm now, maybe I'll look back at the World Cup in South Africa in a while, I'll be very happy, compared to Germany, the progress of the Chinese team is worthy of our pride, but now, I'm sorry, I just want to face the elimination calmly, and I hope that the outside media can give me and my teammates some personal space, don't bother us too much. ”

After Qin Xiong said these words, he boarded the bus, the bus was quiet, no players were willing to talk, many players were holding mobile phones and texting, about to return to China, and they could completely relieve the pressure and talk to their family or friends.

After the bus drove out of Ellis Park Stadium, there were seemingly invisible Chinese fans on both sides of the street watching the Chinese team's bus leave.

The Chinese fans cheered as if the Chinese team was returning triumphantly.

The players of the Chinese team who saw this scene in the car were suddenly in a better mood, no matter what, at this moment, they were tolerated and could be warmed.

After returning to the hotel, Qin Xiong talked to his family on the phone, and Sylvia's gentle comfort and encouragement quickly cheered him up, and quickly left the depression and depression of being out of the game behind.

In the early morning of the next day, the Chinese team boarded a plane in Johannesburg and returned to China.

2010 World Cup in South Africa, farewell. (To be continued.) )
