1210 Go forward!

This should be the happiest day in Alihan's coaching career.

His career is naturally extremely brilliant and needs no further description. The achievements of his three European Champions League championships are enough to look down on many players of his contemporaries.

But in his coaching career, he has never achieved such remarkable achievements as he has today!

Just thinking about the hundreds of millions of Chinese fans, the achievements he has achieved are enough to make him proud!

Before attending the post-match press conference, Alihan first communicated with the officials of the Chinese Football Association who went on to fight. In addition to congratulatory messages sent from the Chinese Football Association and all parties in the China Sports Festival, the Chinese Football Association mainly wanted to talk to Alihan about contract renewal.

Alihan is not suitable for the team to discuss contract renewal in the battle and temporarily puts aside the renewal negotiations. He essentially will not choose to renew the contract, but if the news is leaked at this time, it will not have a good impact on the morale of the Chinese national team.

Arriving at the post-match press conference, Alihan was treated with standing ovation from Chinese journalists.

After sitting down, Alihan made a speech about the competition.

He smiled and said, "It was such an extremely tense game. My heart beats very fast and I can't calm down at all.

I believe many fans are in the same mood as me.

The efforts made by the Chinese team in this game were rewarded. Although I always thought that the Chinese team could qualify before the game, at the moment I really did it, I would feel that the young men exceeded expectations and they performed very well. Of course, this is also because the performance of the Danish team was beyond imagination.

The Denmark never gave up. They have been working hard to win from beginning to end, which has brought us great difficulties. I am very happy that the Chinese team has overcome the difficulties.

Now we have entered the World Cup round of 16, and the Chinese team has reached the World Cup round of 16 for the first time. This is a day worth celebrating, but we still have to stay calm and work seriously. Welcoming the next game."

Chinese reporters at the scene nodded frequently, and these reporters who have been following the Chinese team for a long time are also honored. Although on the stage of the World Cup, there is nothing to make a fuss about traditional strong teams advancing to the knockout stage.

But it is as joyful that the Chinese team can reach the top 16.

A reporter asked Alihan: "Will the Chinese team continue the tactical strategy of defensive counterattack in the next game? Will the Chinese team try to face the knockout opponent Paraguay in a new posture?"

Alihan shook his head.

"The key to success in football is persistence. I know that fans want to see the Chinese team play an offensive football, because it is a more popular football. However, if Chinese football wants to improve, it still needs to recognize its own advantages and disadvantages."

At this time, European media nitpicked: "What you call recognizing your own strengths and weaknesses is nothing more than letting Qin Xiong be the core of the counterattack, and other players defend or support him. It's that simple, right?"

Alihan laughed, he didn't care about the harsh sounds at all now.

He also knew that European media was very annoyed, and that African media might not admit defeat.

Because they all have one team that was eliminated by the Chinese team: Cameroon and Denmark.

"Whatever you say, I don't think there is anything wrong with my approach. As an international superstar, Qin Xiong's ability on the court is top-notch. He scored 5 goals in three games. This reflects his value. In other words, if he plays mediocrely, it is my responsibility. I failed to use him well, so I will persevere."

A Chinese reporter then asked: "Does the Chinese team have any hope to become the dark horse of this World Cup? Just like the Greek team in 2004."

Alihan thought about it and said, "We can only ensure that we can do our job well now, not think about the results, not set goals, whether it is difficult or not. We must work hard to move forward."

Dark horse?

Who doesn’t want to be a dark horse?

But Alihan knew very well that it was impossible for the Chinese team to become a dark horse.

Just like in the second game facing the Netherlands, if you encounter the top European teams, the Chinese team may not have the power to fight back at all.

Because the overall strength gap between the team has exceeded a certain range. It is a gap of magnitude!

And such a gap is not absolutely a loss!

But if you want to create miracles again and again, it is just a whim.

After the press conference, Alihan led his team back to the hotel where he stayed.

Outside the hotel, countless Chinese fans who came to South Africa to watch the World Cup gathered here, as if they were going to hold a party around the hotel to celebrate the Chinese team's entry to the top 16 of the World Cup.

In all cities and regions far away in mainland China, any places related to football are filled with laughter and joy from fans. Everyone raises their glasses and celebrates and cheers for the Chinese team's historic breakthrough!

That night, countless fans were so intoxicated that they were unconscious, and many old fans burst into tears. And many young football fans planted a seed called football dream in their hearts.

The next day, after a night of rest, the Chinese team immediately prepared to switch to the city where the 1/8 finals were held: Pretoria.

The players just walked out of the hotel and saw the spectacular scene outside shocking everyone!

The fans wearing Chinese national team jerseys stood densely outside the hotel. They held up banners, and although they were tired, they were seeing off the Chinese team with an excited expression.

When Qin Xiong appeared, the atmosphere reached even more.

Many female fans who could not control their emotions wanted to rush to Qin Xiong to hug him, but were stopped by the security guards.

The order at the scene was a little out of control, because the incident happened suddenly, and the hotel's security measures were somewhat unacceptable.

At this time, Qin Xiong took a stool from the hotel, then walked outside and stood on the stool. After he appeared in everyone's sight from a high place, the scene suddenly became quiet.

Qin Xiong said to everyone with a sincere smile: "Thank you for your support! I know you all support us from the bottom of your heart and taking action! Thank you very much, thank you very much!

But please remember that we are Chinese!

I wear the jersey of the Chinese national team and I fight for the Chinese national team!

You are wearing Chinese national team jerseys, and you are also fighting for the country!

At this moment, we are in South Africa, and countless media reporters around the world are paying attention to us.

You have already shocked the world!

Let the world know how enthusiastic the Chinese football atmosphere is and how persistent and fanatical Chinese fans are!
