When Qin Xiong pushed his luggage cart out of Bloemfontein, the judicial capital of South Africa, countless reporters were waiting for his arrival, and fans from countless countries!

As a world-renowned football superstar, even if Qin Xiong represents the Chinese team in the eyes of the green-shaded powers, he still has super high popularity!

The grand occasion outside Bloemfontein Airport was unprecedented, almost causing traffic jams. After Qin Xiong, who was dressed casually walked out of the airport with his team, he casually answered several questions from the reporters.

"The probability of qualifying for the Chinese team? I never think about these boring questions, because a team with a 99.9% chance of promotion may be eliminated, and a team with a 0.01% chance of promotion may create miracles. It is meaningless to think about these things. All we have to do is to do our best to not let ourselves regret it.

I, and my teammates, we came to Africa across half of the earth, not for vacation, nor for simply appearing in the World Cup, we are here to complete the game and strive to realize our dreams!”

"Win the championship? Haha, can the Chinese team win the championship? Is this realistic for the Chinese team that has never reached the knockout stage? We will not be ambitious or daydreaming, move forward step by step, and do our best to reach our limits. This is enough, this is my idea."

"My condition is hard to say now. After all, I have not had regular training for more than a week, and my mental relaxation at the end of the season is likely to cause my condition to decline. This is a problem that cannot be ignored. I will meet with the national team and then adjust my physical and competitive state according to the actual situation."

After answering some questions, Qin Xiong carried his backpack, and he also had a suitcase with his personal coach to help him carry. He signed some fans, then got in the car and left, and went directly to meet with the national team.

After coming to South Africa, the Chinese team has already started the warm-up match before the World Cup.

Three warm-up matches have been completed.

Qin Xiong arrived at the hotel where the national team stayed. First, he went to Alihan to report.

If there is no accident, this World Cup will be the last competition for Alihan to coach the Chinese team.

He will leave the coach after the World Cup.

This is not difficult to guess.

It is because of Qin Xiong that the Chinese team will inevitably be expected by fans and the Football Association.

So if Alihan cannot lead the Chinese team to achieve good results in this competition, then the fans and the Football Association will definitely not agree, and he will be terminated!

And if he leads the Chinese team to achieve good results, it will be very difficult to work for another four years, because the Chinese team will face the problem of large-scale renewal, and it will be very difficult to complete the breakthrough in four years.

In addition, the position of the Chinese team coach does not actually have much value, so Alihan is more rational than choosing to renew his contract with the Chinese Football Association. He simply strives to achieve good results in this competition and then abdicate gloriously.

After consultation with the team doctor and Qin Xiong's private team, Qin Xiong first carried out recovery training in the training camp.

Qin Xiong still did not participate in the second warm-up match with Nigeria.

He didn't make his debut until the third warm-up match against Sweden.

This kind of warm-up match is just to make him and his teammates feel like he is playing, and he will not fight his opponent with all his strength.

June 11. The 2010 World Cup in South Africa will open grandly in Johannesburg, the capital!

The World Cup war smoke is officially lit!

The Chinese team will usher in the first game of the group stage in three days. They are not prominent on the World Cup stage and have received very low attention. Even with Qin Xiong, they are still not favored in Group E.

Cameroon, which has local benefits, the top European teams in the Netherlands, and Denmark, which has second-rate European teams in Denmark, are not considered underestimated, but are just opponents in the same group that are very strong.

On June 13, a pre-match press conference.

Alihan and Qin Xiong attended.

As the captain, Qin Xiong expressed the players' voices.

“I don’t want to answer any questions about qualifying in the group.

From the outside world's perspective, we will definitely lose to the Netherlands and will definitely not defeat Cameroon and Denmark.

In this case, does the media hope that the Chinese team will simply give up the game and return home?

As for the qualifying strategy of drawing the Netherlands and defeating Denmark, sorry, football is not a math problem. As a player, especially the captain of the Chinese team, I can only say that we put all our efforts into winning and see what the result will be!"

Chinese football media still have the original intention of firm support for the Chinese team, but sometimes too much worry will also affect the Chinese team.

For example, celebrities make remarks every day. They design strategic plans for the Chinese team. To be honest, they are really a bit worried about eating carrots!

Football is not that complicated sometimes.

Especially for the weak.

The Chinese team is the weak on the World Cup stage. What qualifications are the weak qualified to calculate? There is only one way to fight!

June 14. At 3:30 pm, Bloemfontein Liberty Stadium.

The stands were crowded, and the participation of Chinese fans in this World Cup was significantly higher than in the past.

2002, 2006, and in 2010, this was the third World Cup that the Chinese team participated in in a row. Fans came to the World Cup to cheer for the team and became a craze.

This will of course be of great help to the Chinese team.

The Chinese team played for the first time in Cameroon.

There is a little gimmick in this game.

Qin Xiong and Etoo met again on the field half a month later.

This has sparked hype in the media.

Claiming that Etoo had the opportunity to complete his "revenge" against Qin Xiong in the World Cup.

More than half a month ago, Qin Xiong led Liverpool to defeat Inter Milan, and Etoo was one of the losers.

If you think of another opponent in the same group, the Netherlands team, Qin Xiong's relationship with Dutch football, and the main lineup of the Netherlands team includes his former teammates and opponents, needless to say.

Qin Xiong seems to be "revenge" by many people after coming to the World Cup, Sneider, Robben, and his former teammates such as Van Persie in the Premier League

Compared to four years ago, Qin Xiong's appearance as the captain of the Chinese team is more eye-catching in the World Cup, and he is also more calm in his temperament.

When the national anthem was played, a shocking sound echoed at the Liberty State Stadium.

In addition to the Chinese players, the Chinese fans in the stands who sang the national anthem in unison, both on and off the court, were also singing loudly.

It seems that the Chinese team is using the sound of the national anthem to make the world pay attention to them and convey their voices to the world.

They are not here just to participate in the World Cup simply!
