Ice Shooter of the Green Field

Vol 3 Chapter 77: Battle of Fate (Asian Cup)

Fateful duel! Empire Dragon Team VS Blue Samurai!

Under the consistent headline of the second disease in the Japanese media, China will welcome the Japanese team in the Asian Cup finals. This is the second time that the Chinese and Japanese teams have met in the finals of the Asian Cup after the 2004 China Asian Cup.

This match also caused unprecedented heat between the two countries, and even has the meaning of surpassing the 2004 Asian Cup in China.

There are two key reasons. The first is Qi Ce. Qi Ce, a superstar in the Asian stadium, has appeared. After several investigations by many media, the enthusiasm of ordinary people in the country for football has approached the extreme value of the 2002 World Cup. With the Asian Cup advancing all the way, Qi Ce scored a goal in the Asian Cup, and his attention has been rising all the way.

Another key reason is the advent of the Internet age.

Anyone can easily find a lot of information about Qi Ce, about the game, about the Asian Cup from the Internet, and the attention will naturally increase.

On the other hand, Japan is also very concerned about this game.

Qi Ce is now the most watched football star in Asia, especially in the East Asian circle. The Japanese like football very much. Football is second only to baseball in China. It is the second largest sport in China and is now the most important competition. Opponent China has appeared stars that can almost influence the world football, how can this make them not pay attention.

In addition, the opponents themselves also have enough points to watch.

Football is the war of peace, the most interesting and influential war!

war!

This word is very sensitive when placed between China and Japan. Although this is not the first time China and Japan have met in the finals of a major tournament, this time it may excite more fans.

Because just last year, the Chinese team had beaten Japan in the East Asian Cup. This game has aroused the confidence of the fans through a series of excellent performances. Maybe the possibility of winning this time is greater than the last time.

In fact, Gao Hongbo himself knows that the current national team has no advantages over the 2004 team, and its strengths in all aspects are a bit worse. It's just that Qi Ce is much better than the players at the time.

But fans don't think so, because winning can conceal all disadvantages and even "strengthen teammates."

As long as you win, many small details will be ignored by the fans, and more will be seen useful for the game. For example, Zhang Linpeng’s one-on-two defense has become a place touted by many fans, but because of this, many deficiencies are ignored. However, this is a common phenomenon after victory, but the Chinese team fans do not seem to be very wary of this.

After all, the Chinese team has won less in competitions and has no chance to experience this feeling.

As a professional coach, Gao Hongbo certainly knows that there is still a big gap between the current lineup and Japan. It can even be said that there are gaps in all positions except Qi Ce.

The more powerful Japanese team announced the starting list against China one day in advance. This is not much more luxurious than the lineup of the East Asian Cup last year. Most of them are European players studying abroad. The goal will be Kawashima Yongji, the defense line, Uchida Atsushi People, Yoshida Asaya, Konano Yasuyuki and Nagatomo Yu are all starting, except for Konno Yasuyuki, the others are European production lines.

Midfielder Yasuhito Endo, Makoto Hasebe, Keisuke Honda, Shinji Kagawa and Moe Hosoba are also only veteran Yasuhito Endo playing in the Japanese domestic league. The striker is Shinji Okazaki from Shimizu's heartbeat. It is said that there are already Several Bundesliga teams want to introduce this player.

The Japanese coach is the famous Italian coach Zaccheroni, who once took the two giants in Italy, Milan duo, and has a Serie A champion in hand, and also took Juventus, but it was dismissed in just six months. Then took over the Japanese team after the resignation of the famous Japanese coach Okada Takeshi.

"The Japanese team is very good at ball-handling. Makoto Hasebe, Keisuke Honda, Yasuhito Endo, Shinji Kagawa, these four midfielders have strong ball-handling ability and play very much like Barcelona." The day before the match Gao Hongbo did not shy away from telling everyone in the locker room that this game must be conservative.

"We must play a defensive counterattack, just like Mourinho played Barcelona in Real Madrid to play in Japan. At the beginning, we first pay attention to the scale of the referee. If it is looser, we can move a bit bigger. To play the Japanese team, we must Let them be afraid, afraid to take the ball, to control the ball, to be afraid of injury, so that we have a chance!"

On the other side, the Japanese side.

Shinji Kagawa was surrounded by several teammates, especially Yuto Nagato and Maya Yoshida. They may directly face Qi Ce during the game, so they want to know Qi Ce's weakness.

"Qi Jun’s weakness..." Kagawa Shinji is a bit distressed. He usually plays behind Qi Ce. Kagawa and Qi Ce cooperate a lot. He feels that no matter how the ball is given to Qi Ce, he can do something, or pass it back. , Or rush forward, it seems that he rarely sees when he is more embarrassed.

"I don't think he has any weaknesses. If he insists on speaking, he should send more people to surround him!" Shinji Kagawa thought for a long time, but could only say the same thing as Zachroni.

"You have been teammates with him for so long, so you don't know where his weakness is?" Yoshida Ma unwillingly continued to ask.

"Okay, I get it now!"

Shinji Kagawa suddenly yelled, and the Japanese player turned his attention to him: "Say it!"

"Qi Jun often overlaps with my running positions in competitions. I think this may be an opportunity to take advantage of!"

"Are you **** looking down on me!"

"We have a traitor!"

In the face of Japanese players' chasing, Shinji Kagawa could only flee helplessly, because he really could only think of Qi Ce's weakness in Dortmund, but this was completely useless in the match between Japan and China...

This may be the most watched Asian Cup final. Because of the participation of Superman balloon stars like Qi Ce, the attention and brand value of the entire Asian Cup competition have risen by several levels. Let’s take a look at the final, China. Ice and Messi, who can win!

In Germany, this Asian Cup final is also very eye-catching. Before the twentieth round of the Bundesliga, the Ruhr News rarely published information about Dortmund’s preparations, but the Asian Cup’s LOGO and trophies. On both sides are Qi Ce wearing a red Chinese jersey and Shinji Kagawa wearing a blue Japanese jersey.

In the official final poster of the Asian Cup, the players on both sides were replaced by Qi Ce and Keisuke Honda. There is now a lot of debate about whether Shinji Kagawa is currently the number one player in Japanese football or Keisuke Honda. It is obviously Keisuke Honda, but compared to his reputation in Europe, Shinji Kagawa has gradually overwhelmed Honda.

After all, Shinji Kagawa is playing for the defending Bundesliga champion, while Honda is only in the Russian league. The Russian league is not a mainstream European league, so there will naturally be fewer people paying attention.

At the end of January, the temperature in Qatar was fairly comfortable, and Qatar also ushered in a peak period of tourism in these two days, and the traditional Chinese festival Spring Festival will be ushered in a few days. Most schools and units on the mainland of China have already During the holiday, many qualified fans booked tickets to Qatar early and bought tickets for the Khalifa International Stadium.

Uukanshu.com is the highest-selling competition since the start of the Asian Cup, with more than 44,000 tickets sold. According to statistics, there are more than 28,000 consumers from China.

This is seven times more than the more than 4,000 Chinese fans in the initial group stage!

Among them, Qi Jian was also a bully after he opened a store and made some money. He paid out his own pocket to reward dozens of outstanding tea shop employees to Qatar to watch the game.

Qi Ce and Xu Genbao, and the Qi Ce Youth Football Support Foundation established by Zhou Feng also selected a few small fans to watch the game. In addition, Qi Ce also gave the tickets to Wu Jiawen, Lin Xiaojia and Ai Lin et al.

This is the pinnacle of Asian football. In addition to a large number of Chinese football celebrities and Qi Ce’s relatives and friends, many world football celebrities also came to the scene, FIFA President Blatter, UEFA President Pula Tiny, AFC President Ben Haman and others all came to the scene to watch the game. Of course, in addition to this, the Chinese Football Association Chairman Vidy and the Japanese Football Association Chairman Kawabuchi Saburo also came to the scene.

People are looking forward to whether, under Qi Ce’s leadership, will it be the first time for Chinese football to reach the top of Asia? Iran and Saudi Arabia are tied for the number one championship), everyone is looking forward to it.
