"...In the U23 third-place finals that ended this afternoon, the Chinese Olympic team defeated the Iranian Olympic team 3:1 at the Tokyo National Stadium, and won the third place in the U23 Asian Cup. As a result, he qualified for the Olympic Games to be held in Los Angeles, USA this summer...
"At the last moment of the game, Zhou Zijing scored a goal to seal the victory for the Olympic team. But this goal also caused chaos on the field... The players of the Iranian Olympic team thought that Zhou Zijing's scoring method was not polite... In the end In the conflict, the goalkeeper of the Iranian Olympic team was sent off with a red card...
"With only a few minutes left in the game, the Iranian Olympic team played one less player and fell behind by two goals. They have completely lost their hope of winning the game... After the game, Zhou Zijing was very happy that he could help the team reach the Olympic Games. As for his controversial goal, he didn't mention it at all... But on social media, Zhou Zijing posted a Weibo with only four words: 'Retribution is not good'..."
In the news screen, after passing the goalkeeper of the Iranian Olympic team, Zhou Zi dribbled the ball into the penalty area, but did not shoot directly. Instead, go all the way to the goal line, put the football on the goal line, turn around and face the goal.
Under the watchful eyes of the Iranian Olympic team players, he gently knocked the football into the goal with his heel.
This action angered the players of the Iranian Olympic team, who rushed to trouble Zhou Zijing.
Zhou Zijing was not at all frightened, and stood on the spot and bullied the other side.
Until the goalkeeper of the Iranian Olympic team rushed up, grabbed Zhou Zijing by the neck, and pushed him to the ground...
The Chinese Olympic team players and the Iranian Olympic team, who ran up to celebrate the goal, pushed each other and the scene was chaotic...
※※※
"Zhou Zijing, Zhou Zijing! Let me tell you what's good about you!"
Ran Jiachang of the national Olympic team pointed angrily at Zhou Zijing.
"Just kick that ball in and it's over, what are you doing with that?!"
Zhou Zijing scratched his neck and said, "I just can't get over it. They treated us like this back then, and I'm going to pay it back!"
Zhou Zijing is talking about an old story.
Twelve years ago, in 2016, it was also the U23 Asian Cup. It was the first U23 Asian Cup, and it was also an Olympic qualifier. The Chinese Olympic team met the Iranian Olympic team in the key match of the group stage.
The Chinese Olympic team must defeat the Iranian Olympic team in order to qualify for the U23 Asian Cup knockout rounds and compete for Olympic tickets.
But at that time, the strength gap between the Chinese Olympic team and the Iranian Olympic team was huge.
Even if the Chinese Olympic team tried their best, they still lost 1:3.
In the end, he missed the knockout rounds and missed the Olympics.
If that's the case, it's just an ordinary failure that was not uncommon in Chinese football at that time.
Losing to a team stronger than you seems to have nothing to say.
Chinese football is not short of such failures.
But this game still left a deep impression on all Chinese fans.
Because it's so humiliating...
The Iranian Olympic team not only won the game, but also humiliated Chinese players in a special way.
That was also the third goal of the Iranian Olympic team in that match.
At that time, the striker of the Iranian Olympic team also passed the goalkeeper of the Chinese Olympic team and faced an empty goal.
But he did not choose to shoot directly, but brought the football to the goal line, and then made a call for friends, greeting the surrounding Iranian Olympic team players, forming a circle, on the one hand, to defend the Chinese Olympic team. The goalkeeper came back to save the ball, and on the other hand it was a celebration.
Then he got down again and headed the ball into the nearest goal.
Scored such a very special header...
This kind of scoring method can be said to be extremely humiliating to the Chinese Olympic team. When Zhou Zijing, who was only twelve years old at the time, saw this goal, his blood pressure soared, and countless grass and mud horses rushed through his heart.
What made him explode even more was that in the face of such an insulting goal, the players of the Chinese Olympic team were indifferent. They may have been numb from the loss, or they may have been unable to be dealt with by the actions of the Iranian Olympic team.
In short, when the Iranian Olympic team humiliated them in this way, no Chinese Olympic team player came forward to express their anger and dissatisfaction.
They just put their heads in their hands, or lay down on the ground, making the best backdrop for the cheering Iranian players.
This scene was deeply imprinted in the young Zhou Zijing's heart.
He didn't know what he could do, the only thing he could do was keep this thing, this scene in his heart.
But now, when he faced the Iranian Olympic team again, the unforgettable picture reappeared in front of him.
When he deceived the goalkeeper of the Iranian Olympic team, he realized that he could finally let out the anger that he had accumulated for 12 years!
So he took a huge risk, parked the football on the goal line of the Iranian Olympic team, and then looked at their panic, desperate and angry expressions, and knocked the ball gently into the goal behind him.
After listening to Zhou Zijing's words, Ran Jiachang collapsed even more: "That was twelve years ago, what does it have to do with this Iranian Olympic team?!"
Zhou Zijing pouted: "What does it have to do with the subsequent Japanese team when Satou Mitsuichi took away our Asian Cup championship with handball?"
"You!" Ran Jiachang did not expect Zhou Zijing to be so rigid.
His hand pointing at Zhou Zijing was shaking, but he couldn't speak.
Because there is nothing wrong with Zhou Zijing's words...
At the beginning, Koichi Sato scored with his hand in the Asian Cup final, which completely destroyed the morale of the Chinese team, resulting in the Japanese team winning the Asian Cup in China.
This incident has become a permanent pain in Chinese football. Every time the Chinese and Japanese teams meet in the future, they will be turned over and said, reminding the Chinese players, don't forget this incident.

To get revenge.
In the U23 Asian Cup four years ago, when Hu Lai helped the Chinese Olympic team defeat the Japanese Olympic team to win the U23 Asian Cup, countless fans and media were chanting the Olympic team as the big brother of the national team. avenged.
So how can it be used to justify that the Iranian Olympic team has not done that kind of thing to the Chinese Olympic team?
The head coach of the National Olympic Team, Mai Zhaocheng, who had never spoken, suddenly glared at Zhou Zijing and shouted: "Zhou Zijing, you went abroad to play football, and you're a good! How did you talk to the team leader? Go back to me! Write a profound statement. Leave the review to me, and you are not allowed to leave the room if I am not satisfied! When you write that I am satisfied, go out again! Get out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Zijing turned around and walked out the door neatly.
Ran Jiachang looked at the door that was closed again, and then looked at Mai Zhaocheng: "I'm in a hurry."
"Don't be in a hurry, Lao Ran. I told you that this stinky boy needs to be cleaned up. He really swelled after going abroad to play football. If I don't worry about it again, when he goes to the Olympics and causes big trouble, it will be too late to clean up. It's gone!"
Ran Jiachang sneered: "I mean you are too hasty to protect the calf."
Mai Zhaocheng was stunned for a moment, and then laughed again: "I really asked him to write the inspection, and I really plan not to let him go out unless the inspection he wrote can satisfy me."
"Forget it..." Ran Jiachang sighed, "You are right, if his temper is not cured, he will really cause a lot of trouble... We both can't eat and walk around. What's the big problem..."
Mai Zhaocheng smiled: "Isn't this still the Iranians who have their own faults?"
Iran is indeed in the wrong, so it can't make trouble.
Zhou Zijing's actions also caused an uproar on the Internet. The Iranian media was naturally very dissatisfied with his actions and criticized Zhou Zijing's actions as "violating sports ethics and having no sportsmanship".
But immediately the Chinese media hit back, revealing the bad thing that happened 12 years ago, throwing it in the face of the Iranian media and asking them to translate, what the is called "fuck", it's unsportsmanlike, there is no sports demeanor"!
Oh, you Iranian Olympic team did it back then, but our Chinese Olympic team can't do it now?
When you were in the Iranian Olympic team, why didn't your own media come out and kill your relatives?
What face is there to blame our players now?
Without the "cause" you planted back then, where would the "fruit" that you now bear come from? !
So the violent artillery fire that the Iranian media used to criticize Zhou Zijing finally fell on them.
On the Internet in China, countless fans praised Zhou Zijing as a "national hero~EbookFREE.me~" Of course, it is not without the two devils who expressed their desire to "repay grievances with virtue". Even if people treated us like that, we shouldn't go back in revenge like this. If a dog bites a person, is it difficult for the person to take it and bite it back?
However, this kind of remarks by the two devils were quickly swept away by the turbulent public opinion, completely submerged in the tide, without causing any waves, and it did not affect everyone's overall evaluation of Zhou Zijing.
On the Internet, many people are also watching the jokes of the Iranian Olympic team - there are always people who know the grievances between the Iranian Olympic team and the Chinese Olympic team.
Ran Jiachang saw that Mai Zhaocheng was determined to protect Zhou Zijing, and it was hard to say anything else. After all, this matter was indeed reviewed in the team.
After all, Zhou Zijing is the hero of the national Olympic team's ability to enter the Olympic Games this time, and he helped the Chinese fans to breathe a sigh of relief. Now he is very popular among Chinese fans. It is impossible to really punish Zhou Zijing, otherwise only I'm afraid there will be a big public opinion incident...
He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and changed the subject: "Now that we've entered the Olympics, there's a question you need to seriously consider, Lao Mai."
"What's the problem?" Mai Zhaocheng asked.
"The problem of over-age players." Ran Jiachang said, "Shi Wuyin insisted on not using over-age players in the last Olympic Games. Apart from the fact that he wanted to train the young players, it was also because the over-age players really couldn't choose any strong players. It can enhance the strength of the national Olympic team. But the situation is different now. Does our national Olympic team even need an over-age player?"
Mai Zhaocheng frowned and did not answer Ran Jiachang immediately.
This is indeed an issue that needs careful consideration.
Should overage players be used, and if so, which three overage players should be selected?
