After the Chinese national team arrived in Pyongyang, the capital of the DPRK, it received an official reception from the DPRK.

Due to political factors, North Korea attaches great importance to public relations, but there is also a suspicion of pretending to be pompous, as if to make every foreigner who comes to North Korea think that the country is full of happiness and prosperity.

However, when the national team was training on the field, they were really shocked by the "prosperity" of North Korean football!

They arrived at the May Day Stadium, which was inaugurated in 1989.

The stadium has a unique parachute shape and a roof made up of 16 semicircular elements.

The stadium has a floor area of 207,000 square meters and a capacity of 150,000 spectators.

The stadium complex can host football matches as well as other competitive competitions.

The stadium is equipped with an indoor swimming pool, sauna, and a well-equipped rest area for athletes, as well as a recovery area, and even the North Korean Sports Science Research Laboratory is located here.

Even Qin Xiong, who is accustomed to the Bernabéu, Europe's top stadium, felt in a trance when he was in the May Day Stadium.

That's almost twice the capacity of the Bernabeu!

It's just that this is a multi-purpose stadium, unlike the Bernabeu, which is a professional football stadium.

After stepping on the field training, the Chinese team ushered in the penultimate game of the world preliminary round with the North Korean team in a good mental state.

The May Day Stadium, which can accommodate 150,000 people, was packed in the evening!

Moreover, the North Korean fans in the stands are dressed neatly and consistently, and even the women's cheerleaders occupy a large area of the stands, which is really beautiful!

It was the first time for Qin Xiong to play in this kind of stadium grandstand atmosphere, and he was really curious to observe for a while.

And what made him feel weird. In the past, even if it was an away game for the national team. On the opponent's home turf. He can also feel the attention of many people!

It's easy to understand, he's a superstar, but fans like him or don't like him, at least they won't ignore his presence!

But at the home stadium of the North Korean team, he can keenly perceive that in the eyes of North Korean fans, he seems to be no different from other Chinese players.

It is very likely that because his figure is not as big as that of players like Li Weifeng and Liu Yi, he is not eye-catching!

It's weird.

It seems that North Korean fans simply do not know his strength.

Only the players of the North Korean team will look at him a few more times when they shake hands with him, and their eyes are full of attention and vigilance.

"CCTV. CCTV, welcome viewers and friends to watch the 6th round of the 2010 South Africa World Cup Asian Qualifiers Round 6 broadcast by us at the May Day Stadium in Pyongyang, where the Chinese team challenged the North Korean team away.

Due to the points still behind the North Korean team, the Chinese team in this game away from home is very difficult, we need to get three points away from home to be able to reverse North Korea to become the second in the group, the top two in the group can directly qualify for the South Africa World Cup finals, we wish the Chinese team can win from the away.

Today, the North Korean team put on a defensive formation.

North Korea started 541.

Goalkeeper: Li Mingguo.

Defenders: Cha Jung-hyuk, Lee Kwang-cheon, Lee Jun-il, Park Cheol-jin. Zhi Yin Nan.

Midfielders: Ahn Young-hak, Park Nam-chul. Hong Yingzao, literati.

Forward: Zheng Dashi.

The Chinese team started 442.

Goalkeeper: Yang Zhi.

Defenders: Sun Jihai, Li Weifeng, Feng Xiaoting, Sun Xiang.

Midfielders: Zhang Pengfei, Liu Yi, Zheng Zhi, Shao Jiayi.

Forwards: Qin Xiong, Han Peng.

Well, the game will start immediately, and I hope the Chinese team can play well in the game. ”

The game got underway, with China kicking off first, with Qin Xiong swaying Park Nam-chul from 40 yards in the second minute of the game and firing a long-range shot.

Although the football deviated from the goal, the sudden long-range shot still shocked North Korean goalkeeper Lee Myung-guk.

The atmosphere in the May Day Stadium was always high, and the North Korean fans in the stands cheered for the team with the same slogan.

It's a strange atmosphere, as if there's only one sound in the stadium!

This is more than the Chinese team's home stadium often echoes "Come on Chinese team!" "It also needs to stand out.

Because there was almost no other noise, applause was scarce, and cheering and screaming were almost inaudible.

Even the women's cheerleaders who sat in the stands in the whole area seemed to be performing a rehearsed theatrical performance directly in the stands

The North Korean team played extremely patiently and cautiously at home, they did not need to play against the Chinese team, as long as they can get a draw, there is a high probability that they will beat the Chinese team and directly advance to the World Cup finals in South Africa.

However, perhaps the North Korean team is still shouldering a "political task" and cannot behave too aggressively at home, so they still have to attack.

Zheng Dashi is very impactful, but the defensive counterattack tactics honed by the Chinese team for a long time have become stable and stable.

Zheng Zhi and Liu Yi, who have changed from defenders to midfielders, have become more and more mature in their cooperation, coupled with the rich experience of defensive players on the back line, and the combination of new and old, the defensive strength of the Chinese team has been greatly improved.

The reason why Qin Xiong's performance was unsatisfactory when he was absent before was that he couldn't open the situation with the Chinese team's offense, and he could only mobilize troops from the backfield to pile up offensive players, resulting in a flaw in the defense.

After Qin Xiong's return, the Chinese team's morale first stabilized, and the performance on the field became better and better.

The North Korean team's simple offensive method to attack the Chinese team's defense did not have much effect.

And Qin Xiong first behaved in the front court with a kind of unreasonable selfishness!

Long shot! Anyone! Breakthrough!

Even if the chances are bad, he has to finish the shot himself!

In the first thirty minutes, he had 8 shots on goal!

All the shots of the Chinese team are concentrated on him alone!

It's a very bizarre statistic, but the players of the Chinese team take it for granted.

Even if Qin Xiong flies a hundred excellent opportunities, no teammate dares to complain and will complain about him.

Because Qin Xiong has brought so much happiness and glory to the national team and Chinese football, so much so that he has been deified.

But Qin Xiong is not kicking nonsense.

In the 36th minute of the game, his true intention and the tactical arrangement of the Chinese team really played an effect.

With his constant shooting, he became the most dangerous player in the eyes of the North Korean players.

So I was extra committed to his marking.

After he broke through the midfield defense of Park Nam-cheol and Ahn Young-hak, defenders Lee Kwang-cheon and Lee Jun-il came up in horror to besiege him.

At this time, Qin Xiong calmly sent a straight kick.

Cha Jung-hyuk and Park Cheol-jin focused on Han Peng, but the real killer was Zhang Pengfei!

He still has a speed advantage in Asian football, and in the eyes of the North Korean team, he cut into the penalty area at a very fast speed, and calmly pushed the far corner of the goal after receiving Qin Xiong's through ball!

Goalkeeper Li Mingguo couldn't save it, and watched the football roll into the goal!

The May Day Stadium was silent in an instant! (To be continued.) )
