Chapter 950: hope

When Gao Zheng helped the Chinese team expand its lead from 2:1 to 3:1, the news soon reached the Azadi Stadium, and the Syrian assistant coach wanted to tell the news to the head coach Hakim.
But he was rudely stopped by Hakim: "I don't want to listen to the news over there! We are still behind, what does it matter if we score ten goals over there?"
The assistant coach was aggrieved-when he told Wu Lei about the goal, he did not respond so much...
But Hakim was right.
Up to now, Syria is still behind Iran by 1:2. What does the Chinese team play with Qatar? What does it have to do with us?
If we can't win this game, even if the Chinese team loses, can we qualify for the play-offs?
So the key is to win on your own.
just……
The assistant coach raised his wrist and looked at his watch. The whole game was almost 80 minutes. Syria was still 1:2 behind. Even if they reversed to win, how many goals would they have in the remaining 10 minutes?
Only two goals can make them reversal to win, and then they will only have a goal difference of 3:2.
And the Chinese team?
Now they have two goal difference!
What if Syria wins the game?
By then Syria will have one goal difference, and the Chinese team will have four goals difference...
Even if the score is the same, the goal difference is that the Chinese team won!
Say what the big score beat Iran... Now it seems doomed to be impossible.
He suddenly felt that the Syrian players on the court were a bit pitiful, and they still don't know what happened on the other court.
Otherwise, they may not have the motivation to finish the next game.
Maybe that's why Hakim didn't want to know what happened there?
Because he, the coach, is also afraid of losing motivation...

Qatar, who fell behind by two goals, basically lost its fighting spirit, and the offensive rhythm of the Chinese team also slowed down significantly.
There are still ten minutes left in the game, but many Chinese fans have begun to think ahead about whether the Chinese team's opponent in the playoffs is Australia or Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia and Australia scored 16 points before the final round of the quarterfinals, with six goals in Saudi Arabia and five goals in Australia.
If you win in the last round, with a total of 19 points, the difference in goal difference is so effective, there is much room for imagination. However, from the point of view of the match, Australia may be more dominant, because in the last game they are at home against Thailand, Saudi Arabia is at home against Japan. Although Japan has already qualified early, it will not be defeated to Saudi Arabia on the road, which is an accident.
Therefore, Australia may overtake Saudi Arabia with a goal difference, winning second in the group and directly advancing to the World Cup final.
The opponent of the Chinese team in the play-offs will be Saudi Arabia.
In comparison, Chinese fans also hope that the Chinese team will play Saudi Arabia, after all, it is a familiar old opponent.
The Australian players are too physically fit, and the Chinese team is struggling to fight.
In fact, whether it is Australia or Saudi Arabia, this playoff is not easy to play.
But at least the Chinese team still has the qualification to fight hard for their dreams, which is better than dying in the top twelve.
And... in Gao Zheng's state, maybe we will be in the playoffs?
Look at the good side of everything.
The carnival of fans, satin players and marketing accounts has already begun on the Internet.
At this moment, although it has not yet reached the finals of the World Cup, many people feel as if the Chinese team has determined to qualify.
The carnival spirit made some old fans think of the night sixteen years ago.
Coincidentally, the difference between the two is sixteen years and one month.
And those young fans who only started to pay attention to football in the 2002 World Cup and concerned about Chinese football, for the first time experienced the achievements of loving Chinese football for so many years. The scenes in the documentary film of "Outline" that year seemed to them to be the things of the last century, even though it was 2001.
After I don’t know how many times the source is circulating on the network, the resolution of 480 can be called
HD
. The resolution can’t keep up with the current 1080P standard, and the display standard of 2K and 4K is easily available. The picture quality is also terrible. .
The people in the documentary dressed in hairstyles and talked with words, revealing the strong legacy of the last century. Although it has only been 16 years, it seems that it has been decades away from today's Chinese society.
Now they can finally put themselves in such a documentary scene.
I just hope that future generations do not need to look for the kind of heartfelt joy and pride in the documentary like them.

Just when everyone thought that the Chinese team would beat Qatar with a score of 3:1 and took the third place in the group, the Chinese team scored in the 89th minute.
Gao Zheng received Wu Lei's breakthrough cross in front of the goal, grabbed a foot before the defender, and shoveled the football into the goal.
"4:1!!! Oh oh oh! Although this goal is just the icing on the cake, Gao Zheng completed a hat trick in this game! This is his second hat trick in the top 12 after his comeback After the comeback, he has scored eleven goals in the top twelve! And he only played five games! If you count the game before the injury, six games, thirteen goals, this efficiency, This goal score won the top 12! If it were not for him to be injured, maybe our road to the World Cup does not have to be so difficult..."
He Ping said many fans' wishes.
If Gao Zheng is not injured, the Chinese team should now compete with Iran for the first team...
Unfortunately, there is no such thing in this world.
After going through such twists and turns, the Chinese team was able to qualify for the World Cup play-offs. It was still alive, and it was already an amazing result.
Although the game is not over, I believe that the result of this game should be impossible to change.
After the Chinese team defeated Qatar 4:1, even if Syria won Iran at the last moment and chased the same score, the Chinese team will also overpower Syria with five goal difference.
At the same time, Uzbekistan and South Korea's match will not affect the Chinese team's third place in the group. When Uzbekistan wins, Uzbekistan becomes second in the group, South Korea becomes fourth in the group because of the goal difference; South Korea wins, the South Korean team gets second in the group, Uzbekistan is directly behind the Chinese team because of the disadvantage of points.
With a victory, the Chinese team successfully landed, and Chinese fans can completely ignore the faces of others.
Destiny is in your own hands!
Gao Zheng said before the game that the solution was simple-wouldn’t it be enough to try to win a big score?
At that time, some people said Gao Zheng was just boosting morale.
But when did Gao Zheng speak big words?
People are coming true!

After unremitting efforts, Syria finally equalized in the 92nd minute.
After scoring, the Syrian players quickly ran to the middle circle with their football. Although the hopes were slim, they still had a little fantasy in their hearts.
Hurry up, what if we kill Iran at the last moment?
Their head coach Hakim stood on the sidelines with his arms folded, watching his players run towards the center circle.
He was indifferent on his face, neither applauding the goal nor cheering for the players who had not given up.
Although others stood on the sidelines and assumed a war-supervising posture, in fact his heart was already dead.
He knows very well that the Chinese team is now 4:1 ahead of Qatar. No matter what the Syrian side will end up in, the top 12 games are over...
Their homeless team tried their best and evenly fought Iran and South Korea, defeated Uzbekistan and Qatar, and fought without being optimistic. Last minute.
But now, everything is over.
The World Cup cycle in Syria ends here.

"The game is over! The game is over! The Chinese team defeated Qatar 4:1 away! In the other two games, Syria scored at the last moment and Iran scored a 2:2 draw, while Uzbekistan and South Korea failed. The goal was stalemate to the end, the score was 0:0! In this way, the Chinese team rose to third place with 14 points and qualified for the play-offs!"
He Ping excitedly sounded on the TV.
On the TV screen, the Chinese players on the bench rushed to the court, and it looked as if they had obtained the World Cup qualifying rights.
But don’t blame them for being too excited. After all, they crawled out of a situation where they almost died. It is still alive now, even if it is awkward to live, it is proud enough.
Because Uzbekistan, once in a great situation, is now completely dead.
Lippi, the old handsome, also had a rare smile on his face, embracing his assistants.
"We still don't know whether the opponent of the Chinese team in the playoffs is Saudi Arabia or Australia. Of course, no matter which opponent is difficult to play, this is for sure. But in any case, the Chinese team still hopes to go to Russia! Hope, no matter when, it is something as precious as gold!"
