Chapter 28 The Soul of China

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and many fans in the stands were already wet, but no one walked away, and no one stopped shouting.

"Come on, come on, come on, Chinese team!"

Every time Wang Qi and the others got the ball, there was a neat sound of cheering in the stands, and everyone stayed behind to cheer for the Chinese team desperately.

In the studio...

Li Yan said emotionally: "Did you see it, did you hear it, friends in front of the TV, netizens, all the fans in this stadium are cheering for our Chinese boys regardless of the pouring rain. How many years has it been?" Things that never happened..."

Just after Li Yan finished speaking, Zhang Shan also said excitedly: "Who said our fans don't love our team, who said that our Chinese football is the least supported by fans, look at the fans in this stadium, I believe they are Those of you who watched this game, like these fans, are constantly cheering for these hard-working men..."

"Actually, it's not that our fans don't support it, but they have always supported it. Of course they want our national team to play well. It doesn't matter even if we don't have good results temporarily. In this way, even if we lose, we will win the respect of our fans, because we can see hope and fighting spirit. As long as we do this, we believe that sooner or later, the Chinese team will enter the World Cup. If I can live to see this day..."

This is a comment that Li Yan randomly picked from a netizen on the forum. Hearing this, both Li Yan and Zhang Shan were silent for a long time. They both read from the fan's letter that this is a fan who has supported the Chinese team for many years. The old fan also read the heaviest wish in the heart of this old fan.

In the end, Zhang Shan said in a heavy voice in the studio: "I hope that the wishes of all our fans will start from this game..."

Next, as long as the fans watching the game are staring at the red figure in front of the TV, everyone hopes that the Chinese team will win the game, and there is a voice in everyone's heart that is suppressed , they all want to be able to shout out.

Compared with the fans sitting in front of the TV, the Chinese fans on the field are happier, because they are speaking out unscrupulously, and they use this kind of voice to relieve the depressed voice in their hearts...

However, after the Thai team was equalized by the Chinese team, they all retreated to the backcourt to defend. There were already nine players defending, and they had to defend this point.

And because the Chinese team had already used up their quota of substitutions, after Ye Han left the field, they could not continue to play, and only ten players responded.

Wang Qi and the others were also in a hurry, especially Wang Qi, who didn't care about exhausting him after using his predictive ability many times. It's a pity that the Thai team has too many players in the backcourt, and the Chinese team can't press the whole line.

Even though Wang Qi saw a loophole or intercepted the ball in advance, either there was no support, or because there were too many people around, the ball was taken away by the Thai team.

Even if a teammate breaks through and Wang Qi sends the ball away, as long as it goes outside the penalty area, it will be a tactical foul by the Thai team.

"This game is too difficult, the rain is heavy, the football is kicked on the field, and there is no way to get up..." Zhang Shan saw the players on the field struggling in the rain, and tried hard to kick the ball to his teammates. But because of the rain, the ball fell quickly, and even several ground passes could not be worn because of the muddy water on the grass.

Seeing Wang Qi and the others fall down on the field due to skidding again and again, and stand up again and again to grab the ball, some emotional female fans could not hold back the tears in their eyes.

Wang Qi ran desperately, hoping to see the path to victory. Wang Qitou knew that even if you could predict where the ball would appear next, sometimes it was useless.

However, Wang Qi did not give up. The stadium was full of Wang Qi, and even the Thai team's clear kick Wang Qi had to try his best to catch up and not waste time on the kick-off.

"Wang Qi, stop chasing so desperately. It's not an option to go on like this. Now we have to try long-range shots..." Ouyang Bing stopped Wang Qi and said.

Hearing Ouyang Bing's words, other players agreed. Now that it is raining so heavily, and all the players of the Thai team are defending in the backcourt, it is difficult to cooperate. The only way is long-range shooting, and because of the rain Maybe the goalkeeper will slip.

But Wang Qi disagreed. With so many people in the penalty area, there was no room for a long-range shot. Even if there were so many people, the ball would pass through.

However, Wang Qi still agreed. Wang Qi planned that as long as the ball could pass through the defender, or even bounce on the defender, as long as he could get on the ball path ahead of time, he might be able to create opportunities.

But it's a pity that just as Wang Qi thought, there were too many people in the Thai team, and even long-range shots were shot by anti-aircraft guns several times.

Even the Chinese players gave up at the last moment. In the studio, Zhang Shan said sadly: "It's not that our players don't work hard, it's just God's bad luck. Now our players have tried their best..."

Although Li Yan next to him was unwilling, the current situation was indeed the case, as if thinking of something, Li Yan said:
"Director Zhang will no longer have injury time in this situation!"

"Yes, the current situation is indeed not suitable for stoppage time, because the rain is too heavy, so it is very likely that the referee will blow the whistle for the end of the game when the time is up..."

The fans in front of the TV were filled with unwillingness when they heard Zhang Shan's commentary. They had worked so hard and our players performed so beautifully, so why couldn't God give them a chance.

Some fans on the forum have already started a heated discussion, but this time it is all said that the Chinese team has played a manly style, and this draw is really helpless.

More fans have even announced that they will always support this China World Youth Team.

"In the next game, I will also go to Japan to cheer for the Chinese World Youth Team. Is there anyone going with me? Let's form a team..."

This is the fan mobilization organization on the forum to go to Japan to support the Chinese World Youth Team.

Seeing the end of the game in 5 minutes, Zhang Shan said in the studio: "If there is no accident, the Chinese team will regretfully start their journey to the World Youth Championship with a tie..."

Li Yan did not speak, but stared closely at the Wang Qi who was still being run on the screen. Li Yan was looking forward to the player she cared about the most, the player who shocked her the most, to open the victory for the team. the road.

"Hey, Li Yanjue, how about our China World Youth Team's game? Oh! Li Yan?"

Zhang Shan repeatedly reminded Li Yan twice, and found that Li Yan didn't hear his question, but stared at the big screen tightly.

Noticing that Li Yan was concentrating on the No.13 player on the field, Zhang Shan said: "Actually, this player is working very hard, but now it's time to conserve energy and prepare for the next game. Now Ye Han's injury is still serious." I don’t know why, but NO.13’s performance is still not satisfactory, but it’s just useless work to work so hard now…”

Hearing Zhang Shan's comments this time, Li Yan turned back in disapproval and said, "I disagree with Director Zhang. The game is to persevere until the last moment and not give up. Victory is often those who persist until the end and don't give up..."

Hearing this, Zhang Shan smiled slightly. He felt that Li Yan was still too emotional. As a former player, he had already made a judgment on this situation. In the environment, 2% will not change.

But Zhang Shan won't say it out, rationality is one thing, but if he says it out, even if he is right, the fans who are watching across the country will not agree.

Just when Zhang Shan started sorting out the materials, while staring at the big screen, he saw Wang Qi chasing after the Thai player holding the ball again. As a result, the Thai player kicked the ball to his teammate on the other side, and then Wang Qi chased him again. When Wang Qi chased after him again, the ball was passed to another player, and Wang Qi chased it out again.

Although seeing Wang Qi being so reluctant to give up, in Zhang Shan's eyes, he felt that this was simply letting the other party play.

After sorting out the materials, Zhang Shan looked at the screen again. He didn't expect that Wang Qi was still chasing the ball. He shook his head. At this moment, Wang Qi suddenly rushed past the player and ran towards the goalkeeper.

It turned out that the defense players of the Thai team were all impatient with Wang Qi's behavior. In the end, the No. [-] of the Thai team passed the ball back to the goalkeeper and let the goalkeeper kick it out.

Although Wang Qi runs fast, the ball is faster, and the goalkeeper will definitely kick the ball out first.

"It's close, it's close, hurry up, we must catch up, this is the last chance for this game..."

Wang Qi suddenly started gliding five meters away from the goalkeeper, but at this time the ball was already under the goalkeeper's feet.

At this time, the goalkeeper was about to kick it out, and everyone on the field felt that Wang Qi was doing a futile job again this time.

"Ya Ling's Chinese team member is so funny. He always does useless work. At first he thought he was good, but now he thinks he is a fool who always does useless work. Doesn't he know that his behavior is embarrassing?" Rumiko said.

"Rumiko doesn't allow you to say that. This is a man who is desperate for football to the last moment. This is a real football lover..." Although Yaling also felt that there would be no change in this game, Wang Qi left a deep impression on Ya Ling.

At this moment, many people on the field had already fixed their eyes on the watch in the referee's hand, waiting for him to blow the whistle, and the ball scored...

The field was quiet, and suddenly the referee blew the whistle. Many fans got up and thought that the game was over. Some attentive fans found that what they heard was not two long and one short ending whistles, and looked at the field slightly strangely. At that time, they sent the Thai team in front of the goal, and the Chinese players were all jubilant, but the goalkeeper and defender of the Thai team seemed to be fixed. Looking at the big screen, the original score of 2:2 suddenly changed to 3:2. One goal ahead.

Everyone was stunned. What happened just now? Even in the studio, Zhang Shan watched the score change strangely, because the photographer’s angle also took pictures of the referee just now, thinking that the referee would be the referee after this clearance. Blow the whistle to end the game.

"Let's wait and see the final replay. What's going on?" Zhang Shan didn't know whether to be excited or what to do, but he must be in a hurry and confused.

The Chinese fans and the audience were all staring at the big screen. It turned out that when the goalkeeper was about to make a big kick to clear the siege just now, he didn't know whether the goalkeeper of the Thai team slipped due to the weather or because of Wang Qi's tackle. The action was so fierce that he was shocked, and he missed the kick, instead of kicking the ball out, and at this moment Wang Qi just slid over and scooped the ball in.

When seeing this, the audience in the audience was boiling. Even in the studio, Zhang Shan watched the ball and kept saying: "Luck, it's so lucky. God is really attached to our Chinese team in the end..."

Hearing Zhang Shan's words, Li Yan retorted loudly: "Director Zhang, it's definitely not luck, it's strength, it's persistence, it's the result of Wang Qi not giving up, and he persisted until the last moment. It's not luck, it's strength! Strength!"

In fact, what Li Yan said was not wrong. From the moment Wang Qi started chasing, if the slow motion was played, it could be seen that Wang Qi had already run towards the Thai player who received the ball before the Thai team passed the ball.

Ordinary players, chasing the ball desperately, facing the opponent with two points or even three points to pass the ball, will not be so fast. They can only wait until the ball is passed to the opponent's feet and run, but Wang Qi is not, He saw the direction of the ball "in advance" before the opponent passed the ball.

Therefore, although Wang Qi was alone, he gave the Thai team a kind of pressure on the defense as a whole, making them feel that Wang Qi was chasing to him faster and faster, so he finally passed the ball to the goalkeeper. The action of relief.

And Wang Qi has already seen that the goalkeeper will kick the ball empty for the first time. This is Wang Qi's last chance. Even if it is a top striker, if he encounters this situation, if he does not react quickly, he will only be seconded by the goalkeeper. clearance.

But Wang Qi is different, he has already anticipated this opportunity in advance, so the rest is only sure, just like what Li Yan said this goal is not luck, but strength...

Wang Qi watched the ball roll into the goal and lay down on the grass relaxedly. He was so tired...

The teammates who reacted later were all crazy, but when they rushed to Wang Qi's side to celebrate, they found that Wang Qi had fallen asleep from exhaustion.

All the players were shocked, Ouyang Bing immediately helped Wang Qi up, and said to his teammates: "Hurry up and help Wang Qi down, do you want him to catch a cold?"

In the studio, Zhang Shan did not expect that Li Yan, who always respects him in normal games, would explode at this time, but when the camera switched to Wang Qi's camera, Zhang Shan stopped talking when he saw Wang Qi sleeping soundly after scoring a goal.

After seeing Wang Qi score on the big screen, he didn't even have the strength to stand up. All the fans stood up, and they applauded this hero who persisted until the end and opened the door to victory for the Chinese team.

"The best player on the court, he definitely deserves this honor..." Zhang Shan murmured while looking at Wang Qi's figure on the screen.

After the game, the head coach He Yihang described the game as difficult, and when asked about the performance of the players in this game, He Yihang said solemnly: "In this completely unfair game, I saw China in our players. soul! ! "

The headline on the front page of China's "Southern Football News" the next day was "Chinese Soul" and the picture below the headline was the moment when Wang Qi scored the last goal.

This photo was captured by a reporter at the scene. Li Yan paid a high price for this photo, but what Li Yan didn't think about was that many years later, this photo would bring her an unknown number of returns.
