Chapter 415 Qualifying for the World Cup

After all the competitions in Alkmaar were over, Jiang Xiaolin, with the assistance of Baker, started signing contracts with various brands and filming commercials.

The great success of last season made Jiang Xiaolin gain great popularity and status all over the world.

Coupled with the huge Huaguo market, although Jiang Xiaolin has no Champions League, no Golden Globes, no World Cup, and he can't be called the world's top superstar, he is already a first-line superstar.

Such fame and status are naturally worthy of the pursuit of major brands.

In the interval between signing contracts, shooting commercials, and accepting media interviews, Jiang Xiaolin spent his 5th birthday on May 25 in Song Zhicheng's restaurant in Amsterdam's Chinatown.

Several family members including Jiang Xiaolin's mother Jiang Liantao and cousin Jiang Xueling were also brought to witness Jiang Xiaolin's coming-of-age ceremony.

Choosing to live here is naturally because of the friendship between Jiang Xiaolin and Song Zhicheng.

When Jiang Xiaolin was tricked to the Netherlands by a liar and became a homeless man, Song Zhicheng gave him a chance to be reborn.

Therefore, when he was busy signing endorsement contracts and unable to go back to his hometown, he chose to spend his life in Song Zhicheng's restaurant and solicit business for Song Zhicheng, which can be regarded as Jiang Xiaolin's gratitude to Song Zhicheng.

After completing the endorsement contracts in Europe, Jiang Xiaolin, his mother and others returned to China, and with the assistance of domestic assistant manager Fan Hongyu, they signed several domestic big brand endorsement contracts, and made advertisements, which appeared on the sports channel of the national TV station. interview.

Then, it was not until June 6 that Jiang Xiaolin rushed to the national team to report for the top ten match against Australia.

There are still three rounds of the World Preliminary Asian Top Ten Tournament, all of which will be held in June.

After the top ten matches, the 4 direct qualifying places in Asia will be settled.

As for the Hua Guo team, having played two games in the second half, there are two more games in the next three rounds, and the final round has a bye.

In other words, whether the Hua Guo team can directly qualify from the top ten competition with the top two results in the group depends on the performance of the next two games.

2009年6月6日傍晚19:00,随着主裁判的一声哨响,华国队主场VS澳大利亚国家队的2010南非世界杯亚洲区十强赛A组第8轮的比赛在昆明正式开打。

Before the game, the Australian players spoke out loudly, claiming that even if the Hua Guo team had Jiang Xiaolin playing, they would still be able to beat the Hua Guo team in the away game and continue to lead the standings.

Because they once beat the Hua Guo team 4-0 at home, that game gave them great confidence.

They didn't take into account that Jiang Xiaolin was injured in that game and didn't play at all.What's more, he didn't even consider that Jiang Xiaolin is already two people now, even when he played in the UEFA Cup.

Because after the UEFA Cup, Jiang Xiaolin not only added the "volley" shooting skill, what's even more frightening is that after he completed the task of the junior triple crown, he obtained the special skill "Inverted Foot" and added it to the full value. Degree.

The current Jiang Xiaolin is not the Jiang Xiaolin before the UEFA Cup who could only pass and catch the ball with his right foot, break through and shoot.

His left and right feet are exactly the same, very balanced.

And after having the "inverted foot" skill, Australia is still the first opponent.They were completely ignorant of Jiang Xiaolin's new skills.

Even, relying on their strength as the number one in Asia, they launched a fierce attack on the Chinese team in the away game.

The Hua Guo team, as always, played defensive counterattacks.

As a result, Australia is a tragedy.

Jiang Xiaolin's physique, speed, grabbing ability, passing and receiving ability, breakthrough, left and right foot balance ability make the Australians impossible to guard against.

In the 6th minute, the teammates intercepted the ball from Australia and passed it to Jiang Xiaolin. Jiang Xiaolin started to take the ball from the middle circle, and used his left and right foot balance ability to catch the opponent's defenders by surprise. Cycling, passing through the crotch, etc., went to the meeting with three people in a row, and scored easily.

The Chinese team leads Australia 1-0.

After Jiang Xiaolin hit the ball, even the commentator exclaimed in surprise:

"The ball is in!"

"Jiang Xiaolin opened the scoring and scored the first goal for the Hua Guo team!"

"Hua Guo leads Australia 1-0!"

"However, what Jiang Xiaolin showed during the goal is really surprising!"

"We all know that Jiang Xiaolin is right-footed, and basically has no ability to handle the ball with his left foot."

"However, today, we saw that the strength of Jiang Xiaolin's left foot was exactly the same as that of his right foot in the process of passing and receiving the ball before and this time. The right foot makes no difference."

"Could it be that in such a short period of time after the UEFA Cup final, Jiang Xiaolin has already mastered the kicking technique of his left foot and raised it to the same level as his right foot?"

"In that case, Jiang Xiaolin's progress speed can really be called a monster!"

Many professional guests and reporters were also amazed by Jiang Xiaolin's latest ability to balance his left and right feet.

This is too abrupt.

However, considering the speed at which Jiang Xiaolin's various newly added skills have improved before, and the fact that the club scored 108 goals last season and attracted the official Guinness World Records to issue a certificate, it can be understood a little bit.

No matter what the people in the stands think, the Australian players on the court are a little confused anyway.

They really don't know how to guard against Jiang Xiaolin like this!

But the game has to go on.

Moreover, they had to continue to attack after falling behind.

However, this gave Jiang Xiaolin another chance to fight back.

The next game is quite simple.

Jiang Xiaolin easily played the big four in the whole game, and took away three Australian defensive players in the process of pulling the side, leaving the opponent's central defense empty, and the midfielder Huang Bowen dribbled the ball into the penalty area and scored.

The Hua Guo team scored a full 5 goals in the game.

Australia, on the other hand, failed to score a single goal.

The Huaguo team retaliated against the opponent with a 5-0 score, which not only offset the opponent's 4-0 score in the first round, but also charged the opponent's interest.

This excited the Huaguo fans at the scene and in front of the TV, and applauded Jiang Xiaolin and the Huaguo team one after another.

After this game, the Chinese team ranked first in the group with 16 points, Australia was second in the group with 13 points, Japan was third in the group with 11 points, Bahrain was fourth in the group with 4 points, and Uzbekistan was last in the group with 1 point.

In fact, Bahrain and Uzbekistan have completely lost the chance of qualifying in the group, even the theoretical chance is gone.

The Hua Guo team, Australia, and Japan will also compete for the top two places in the group.

Because no one wants to play in the playoffs.

Even if they win the play-off against No.3 in Group B, they still have to face their opponents in the play-offs in the Americas. It will be a waste of time and energy, but they will not be able to get out of the line.

Therefore, in the last two rounds, all three teams must go all out.

However, relatively speaking, the Hua Guo team occupies a relatively favorable position.

Because the Hua Guo team currently tops the list with 16 points.

On June 2009, 6, the Hua Guo team played away against Japan, Australia played against Bahrain at home, and Uzbekistan had a bye.

In this game, both sides are determined to win.

However, the Huaguo team with 16 points is obviously in a more favorable position.

The Japanese team had to go all out to attack and win in order to have a chance to qualify.

Therefore, the situation of the game was that the Japanese team had to attack vigorously, while the Hua Guo team had the leisure to play a defensive counterattack.

Although the Japanese team still pays great attention to the protection of the defense when attacking, pay attention to guarding against Jiang Xiaolin's counterattack.

But Jiang Xiaolin's current strength is really not something that Asian teams can defend if they want to defend.

Moreover, Japan's offense is also limited to shooting skills, and it has not scored goals for a long time.

Instead, in the 15th minute, the Hua Guo team scored first.

However, it wasn't Jiang Xiaolin who scored the goal, but it was directly related to Jiang Xiaolin.

It was Jiang Xiaolin who used his incomparable attractiveness to attract the Japanese team's defensive attention, allowing the Huaguo team's winger Shao Jiayi to get an unmarked chance to get in, and then received Jiang Xiaolin's wonderful pass to score the ball , reached the penalty area and scored a goal, opening the scoring for the Hua Guo team.

Jiang Xiaolin assisted Shao Jiayi to give Hua Guo a 1-0 lead.

After taking the lead, the Hua Guo team played more easily, while the Japanese team was even more embarrassed.

They had to press hard and adopt a more aggressive offensive strategy.

But their mad attack has always gained momentum but failed to achieve what they wished.

Instead, in the 35th minute, he conceded the ball again.

This time it was Jiang Xiaolin's sharp long-distance attack. After passing two people in a row, he was finally pulled down by the third defender and won a free kick.

Then, Jiang Xiaolin sent the ball into the goal of the Japanese team with a beautiful arc free kick.

The Chinese team leads Japan 2-0.

Next, neither team scored another goal in the first half.

After a 15-minute intermission, the two sides changed sides and fought again.

At the beginning of the second half, the Japanese team continued to attack wildly, anxiously trying to score a goal to equalize, or even reverse the score.

Finally, in the 58th minute, the aggressive Japanese team achieved results and finally scored their first goal, tying the score at 1-2. The fans in the stands immediately burst into cheers.

However, the score is still behind.

Therefore, after the game restarted, the morale-boosted Japanese team continued to attack wildly, hoping to score again.

However, the defense line of the Huaguo team, which focuses on defensive counterattacks, is not so easy to break through.

What's more, the shooting skills of the Japanese players themselves are not as good as Jiang Xiaolin's pointing at where to hit. Sometimes even if they get a chance to shoot, it is difficult to hit within the range of the goal frame.

Even if it is within the range of the goal frame, it is difficult to hit a shot from a dead corner, and it is easy to be saved by goalkeeper Song Zhenyu, or directly confiscated.

Therefore, when the aggressive attack failed to score a goal, it was the Hua Guo team who scored the third goal of the game in the 69th minute.

And the one who scored the goal was none other than Jiang Xiaolin, whom everyone had placed high hopes on.

Jiang Xiaolin used his powerful breakthrough ability to counterattack two people in a row to form a single shot, and finally faced the attacking goalkeeper with a left-footed lob shot and succeeded.

Jiang Xiaolin scored twice to give Hua Guo a 3-1 lead.

When Jiang Xiaolin scored, it was already the 69th minute, and it was only 20 minutes before the end of the game.

Such a score, and the game time, for the Japanese team, is simply desperate.

Therefore, the coach of the Japanese team put all his eggs in one basket and chose to replace a full-back with a striker and attack wildly.

However, such a mad attack did not work.

In the final minutes of the game, the Huaguo team almost put up the bus to defend, leaving only Jiang Xiaolin in the frontcourt.

But Jiang Xiaolin alone is enough, he can kill the game alone.

In the 76th minute, a frontcourt pass of the Japanese team was intercepted by Zheng Zhi's sudden grab.

Then, the moment Zheng Zhi stole the ball, Jiang Xiaolin immediately turned around and rushed towards the Japanese team's half.

Because the score is behind and the need to attack, the defenders of the Japanese team are extremely high.

Then, in the face of Jiang Xiaolin's rapid forward run, the Japanese team's defender failed to catch up with him, Jiang Xiaolin's speed was too fast.

As a result, at the moment when Jiang Xiaolin was about to reverse offside, Zheng Zhi drove the ball forward with a big kick. Jiang Xiaolin did not offside, but succeeded in the reverse offside.

Moreover, Zheng Zhi's big feet fit perfectly with Jiang Xiaolin's running position and direction.

Jiang Xiaolin didn't stop to wait for the ball while running, but unloaded the ball in a fast forward running, and took the ball to kill the Japanese team's penalty area.

Several defenders of the Japanese team were unable to catch up with Jiang Xiaolin when they were running without the ball.

Jiang Xiaolin formed a good opportunity to go to the meeting alone, and the Chinese fans in the stands and the local Chinese and overseas Chinese all stood up excitedly.

The panicked Japanese fans kept booing, hoping to interfere with Jiang Xiaolin's shot.

However, such battles did not disturb Jiang Xiaolin at all.

When approaching the penalty area line, facing the attacking goalkeeper, Jiang Xiaolin easily lobbed the ball past the goalkeeper and into the empty goal behind him.

In the 76th minute, Jiang Xiaolin scored a hat-trick to help the Huaguo team lead the Japanese team 4-1 away by three goals.

This goal can be regarded as completely killing the game.

It is completely impossible for the Japanese team to score three consecutive goals in less than 20 minutes.

Fans, both at the scene and in front of the TV, have already begun to celebrate.

After 2002, the Hua Guo team will finally enter the World Cup stage again.

After the game restarted, the Japanese team launched a crazy attack, wanting to make a last-ditch effort.

But fate did not give them any chance.

Jiang Xiaolin also returned to his own half to participate in the defense, using his full-value positioning skills to constantly disrupt the passing and attacking of the Japanese team.

And the Japanese team's shooting skills are not good. In the last ten minutes or so, they had two or three shots, but they didn't score a single goal.

After 4 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. The Hua Guo team beat Japan 2010-9 away in the ninth round of the 4 South Africa World Cup qualifiers in the Asian Top Ten Tournament. Taking three points, the points reached 1, widening the difference between the two sides to 19 points.

Although the Hua Guo team had a bye in the final round, the Japanese team still had a game.

But in any case, it is impossible for No.3 Japan to catch up with the Hua Guo team.

The Chinese team advanced to the 2010 World Cup qualifiers in South Africa one round ahead of schedule, becoming the first team in the world other than the host South Africa to qualify for the World Cup.

When the game was over, the sports channel of Huaguo State TV broadcasted the words "We are qualified", and the whole country of Huaguo became a sea of ​​celebration.

After 2002, the Huaguo Men's National Football Team finally qualified for the World Cup for the second time.

And this time, with Jiang Xiaolin's national football team, they will never go home after eating duck eggs in the group stage!
