Super Marshal

The day after the national football team defeated Qatar with four goals, the national public opinion was completely boiling, the media reported frantically, and the people were excited.

The authoritative party newspaper used "Miracle" as the cover title to report that the national football team made a strong counterattack and advanced to the top 12.

In their comments, they described the Chinese team's qualifying as an inspiring counterattack, a magnificent life-and-death redemption, a desperate battle, and a miracle that cannot be expressed in a thousand words.

"According to the ratings given by CCTV, last night's life-or-death battle was the focus of the whole country, and the crowds were packed out. It set the highest ratings record for a football match since the 2002 World Cup. This is enough to prove the national enthusiasm for football and their enthusiasm for football. The national team has high hopes.”

The commentary analyzed the experience of the top 40 matches of this World Cup qualifier, from the joy when the lottery was drawn to the haze when the two drew with Hong Kong, China. While morale continued to be frustrated, the pressure from public opinion was also increasing day by day. The country The team has been burdened with an unbearable burden, and the players' mentality has been tragically distorted.

"Mental problems have always been the number one problem for the national team. In key battles, the mentality always restricts the performance of the national team. This causes us to often fall behind at critical moments, leaving behind a series of extremely bitter memories, and even becoming a netizen. They make fun of the national team’s dirty jokes.”

"But this time, the national football team worked together and did not let us down again. In the last two games, they not only defeated their opponents, but also defeated the pressure, especially in this crucial game against Qatar. We can From the very beginning, the team entered a fast-paced lane that actively pressed and pressed, and scored three goals in a row within twenty minutes to seal the victory."

Party newspapers attributed the change in the national team's mentality to Gao Han's coaching.

"Being appointed when the army was defeated, he was ordered to be in danger, when all the head coaches were shying away from the position of coaching the national team, Gao Han risked his life's honor and disgrace and took over the coaching position of the national team. We still remember him to this day. In his first press conference when he first took charge of the national team, he eloquently stated that he can bring progress to the national team and he will never give up easily."

"Facts have proved that Gao Han is worthy of his status as the head coach of the national team. With two hearty victories, he personally directed the most epic miracle in the history of Chinese football. He allowed us to see gratifying changes. He made We began to believe that Chinese football can also do it."

"Help a building that is about to collapse, and turn the tide before it falls. Gao Han has practiced these two sentences with living examples."

"In the last two games, against the Maldives and Qatar, both the results and the process have made people see very gratifying changes. Gao Han resolutely uses technical players and insists on using more advanced tactical concepts to guide the national team. He conquered everyone in a short period of time, and he made us begin to believe that China can do what other countries can do, or even do better."

In the second half of the comment, the party newspaper also specially thanked the fans who have been waiting for many years, saying that it is precisely because of the loyal waiting of hundreds of millions of fans that Chinese football has always maintained hope. On the Miracle Night in Xi'an, more than 40,000 fans all Singing the national anthem on the field has become the most perfect footnote for the national team to advance to the top 12.

"Advancing to the top 12 revived our despair and allowed us to see hope and light again, but the words of head coach Gao Han and captain Zheng Zhi in interviews with the media after the game are also worthy of our deep thought. .”

"The freezing ground did not freeze three feet in a day. The situation that Chinese football has fallen into today is not the responsibility of one person. We should look at the gap calmly and rationally. We should understand and respect the laws of football."

"Gao Han is a great head coach. No one should doubt his love for Chinese football or his coaching ability, but we must accept the gap and we must be able to understand the current situation of Chinese football. "

"He chose to speak such words when the national team advanced to the top 12, which others would not say or dare not say. This is the best proof of his feelings for Chinese football, and it also allows us to clearly see that promotion The top 12 is just the first step in the long journey of revitalizing Chinese football."

"We sincerely hope that no matter what the results of the national team are in the future, or whether they can successfully compete in the World Cup, every fan will never abandon you, because you are the most shining star in the night sky, illuminating the efforts of the national team. Forward."

…

While the authoritative party journal reported on the front page that China's football team has advanced to the top 12, the China News Agency also issued a special report that the national team's promotion has changed history, and it is expected that China will soon become a football power.

In the report, the reporter believed that Gao Han's step forward changed the trajectory of the national team's decline and prevented the national football team from repeating yesterday's story. After missing the final stage of the Asian qualifying rounds for three consecutive World Cup cycles, the national football team finally changed history. .

However, unlike other media that reported on how intense the game was and how excited the fans were, the China News Service used a large amount of space to focus on Gao Han's answers at the post-match press conference, as well as the acceptance of the national team captain Zheng Zhi after the game. remarks in media interviews.

The China News Agency believes that Gao Han only told some truths that have long been tacitly understood by professionals, but no one dared to speak publicly. It calls on the Football Association, all walks of life and fans to give more patience and expectations to Gao Han.

"The national football team has been suffering for a long time, and the disease is deeply rooted. It does not happen overnight. The two games after Gao Han took office gave us hope, but we also saw from Gao Han the gap between the national football team and the strong Asian teams. Not to mention a world-class team.”

"We are not the emperor wearing new clothes. Since the decline of Chinese football, we have been looking for the root cause of the disease. Gao Han's words just prove that he is a very smart doctor. He has seen the disease and is working hard. Prescribe the right medicine."

"There is a saying that is right, illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes away like a thread. We cannot ask Gao Han to cure the disease of the national football team who has been suffering for many years in a short time, but we can fully expect that under Gao Han's coaching , the national football team is revitalized and rises among the world's top teams."

…

In addition to party publications and China News Service, many well-known domestic media have also reported on and paid attention to the national football team's promotion to the top 12.

Overnight, the country went into a frenzy.

Some media commented that from the top 40 to the top 12, this is just a small step in Asian football, but for Chinese football, it is a historic step since 2002.

What is most praised is that after Gao Han coached the team, in the remaining two games, whether it was the scene, the process, or the final result, people saw an unprecedented, brand-new Chinese national team. .

One piece of data is also talked about by all media reporters, that is, in the two games, it goes without saying that in the first game against the Maldives, China had an overwhelming advantage, but in the second game against Qatar, the national team’s control The ball rate also reached 63%, which is an extremely astonishing number.

In terms of running distance, the entire team ran 15 kilometers and 17 kilometers further than their opponents in the two games. This is seen as the key to the national team's strong victory over their opponents.

However, there are also many media reports and comments on Gao Han and Zheng Zhi’s remarks, warning that advancing to the top 12 is worth celebrating, but everyone must have a clear understanding and must be calm and rational.

…………

At noon on March 30th, BJ Capital Airport.

Since the morning, more and more fans have gathered at the airport. They are waiting in the airport neatly and orderly, waiting for the appearance of Gao Han, who is rumored to be returning to BJ.

When the airport announcement came that the flight from Xi'an to BJ arrived at the Capital Airport on time, the scene suddenly burst into cheers.

All the fans who came to pick up the airport rushed to the pick-up gate, and soon there was a large formation of more than a thousand fans, which really shocked the airport ground staff. They didn't know which superstar they thought it was. Coming.

I heard that it was due to the high cold and the large number of people at the scene. The airport immediately made arrangements to maintain order at the scene.

Sure enough, not long after, Gao Han walked out of the airport pick-up gate calmly.

After the match against Qatar, the national team disbanded overnight. Many international players even flew back to the club from Xi'an overnight to report. Gao Han's parting gift to each of them was a summary report of the mid-card battle.

After walking out of the airport, before Gao Han could recover, he was startled by the fans who were shouting his name frantically.

It's not like he hasn't enjoyed airport pick-ups before, but he never thought there would be so many people and such a big battle.

"Hello, everyone."

Gao Han walked toward the fans under the protection of the airport security personnel. He shook hands and signed autographs with all the fans who came to pick him up, but there was really no way to take a photo.

"Thank you to everyone for your support of the national team. The players and I will continue to work hard, and I hope everyone can continue to support us."

The scene was so loud that Gao Han had to shout loudly.

The fans treat him this way, which is their love for him and also his responsibility.

As the head coach of the national team, he cannot indulge in this. He must always keep his mission in mind and stay awake.

The lessons learned by Peilan and others are lessons that Gao Han must learn.

Gao Han had a good attitude, but more and more fans gathered at the scene. In the end, even many domestic and foreign tourists who were originally going to take the plane gathered around him when they heard the news of Gao Han's arrival, which made him feel overwhelmed.

If he continues like this, he won't be able to finish signing even if his hands break, not to mention he's still waiting to go home for lunch.

As a last resort, he could only let the airport security personnel escort him to quickly get rid of the circle of fans.

But in the end, Gao Han did not forget to express his gratitude to the fans from afar, and then walked out of the airport, got into Lin Xia's car that was already parked outside the gate, and left directly.

"Do you think you're running away?" Lin Xia chuckled.

Gao Han was helpless about all this. He didn't expect that media reporters and fans would be so powerful and know that the flight he had temporarily booked was really...

In the final analysis, it is still a bit careless and underestimates the enthusiasm of the fans.

The scene that happened at the Capital Airport was quickly posted on the Internet by netizens and quickly became the top trending search topic on Weibo, attracting strong attention from netizens across the country. Gao Han's "escape" was even more intense. I am afraid that the world will not be in chaos and will be fully praised.

In just two or three hours when Gao Han went home to eat and rest, it turned into a grand event on the Internet and aroused heated discussions among netizens across the country. Gao Han never expected it.

However, even if he wanted it, he would definitely not care too much.

Because that afternoon, he went to the Football Association headquarters to meet with the Football Association’s senior officials.

After finishing the mid-card battle and advancing to the top 12, Gao Han will get a rare vacation, but before the vacation, he needs to deal with the aftermath of many long-backlogged matters.
