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

His career is naturally extremely brilliant without repeating it, but the achievements of three European Champions Cup champions are enough to overlook many players of the same generation.

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

Just thinking about the hundreds of millions of fans in China, his achievements are enough to make him complacent!

Before the proud Alihan attended the post-match press conference, he first communicated with the officials of the Chinese Football Association. In addition to the congratulatory messages from the Chinese Football Association and the Chinese Sports Festival, the Chinese Football Association mainly wanted to talk to Alihan. The contract renewal thing.

Alihan put aside the contract renewal negotiations for the time being because the team is still in the game and it is not appropriate to talk about contract renewal. He will not choose to renew the contract in essence, but if the news leaks at this time, it will not be good for the morale of the Chinese national team. .

Arriving at the post-match press conference, Alihan received a standing ovation from Chinese reporters.

After sitting down, Alihan gave a speech about the game.

He smiled and said: "This is really an extremely tense game, and up to now my heart is still beating very fast, and I can't calm down at all.

I believe that many fans feel the same way as me.

The hard work of the Chinese team in this game has been rewarded. Although I always thought that the Chinese team could qualify before the game, but at the moment when it really did, I would feel that the boys exceeded expectations. They performed great. Of course, This is also because the performance of the Danish team is beyond imagination.

The Danish team never gave up, they struggled to win from the beginning to the end, which caused great difficulties for us, and I am very happy that the Chinese team overcame the difficulties.

Now we have broken into the top 16 of the World Cup, and the Chinese team has reached the top 16 of the World Cup for the first time.It's a day to celebrate, but we still have to keep calm and get to work and get ready for the next game. "

The 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, it is nothing surprising for traditional strong teams to advance to the knockout round.

But the Chinese team's ability to reach the top 16 is almost as gratifying as winning the championship.

A reporter asked Alihan: "Will the Chinese team continue the defensive counterattack strategy in the next game? In the case of qualifying. Will the Chinese team try to use a new attitude to face the knockout opponent Paraguay ?”

Arihan shook his head.

"Success in football depends on persistence. I know that fans want to see the Chinese team play a kind of offensive football, because it is a more popular football. However, if Chinese football wants to improve, it still needs to recognize its own strengths and weaknesses."

At this time, some European media were critical: "Your so-called recognition of your own strengths and weaknesses is nothing more than making Qin Xiong the core of the counterattack. Other players defend or support him, it's as simple as that, right?"

Alihan chuckled, he didn't care about those harsh voices at all.

He also knows that the European media is very angry, and maybe the African media are also unwilling to admit defeat.

Because they all have a 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. Qin Xiong is an international superstar. His ability on the court is superb. He scored 5 goals in three games, which reflects the His value, in other words. If he plays mediocre, then it's my responsibility, I can't use him well, so I will stick to it."

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

Alihan thought for a while and said: "Now we can only guarantee to do our own work well, without thinking about the results, and without setting goals. No matter 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 Ali Han knew that it was impossible for the Chinese team to become a dark horse.

Like the second game against the Netherlands.Whenever they encounter top European teams, the Chinese team may not be able to fight back at all.

Because the team's overall strength gap has exceeded a certain range.It's an order of magnitude difference!

And such a gap is not absolutely doomed!

But wanting to create miracles again and again is just wishful thinking.

After finishing the press conference, Alihan led the team back to the hotel where they stayed.

Outside the hotel, countless Chinese fans who came to South Africa to watch the World Cup gathered here. They seemed to have a party around the hotel to celebrate the Chinese team's entry into the top 16 of the World Cup.

In various cities and regions in mainland China, wherever football is involved, fans cheer and laugh. Everyone raises their glasses to celebrate and cheer for the historic breakthrough of the Chinese team!

That night, I don’t know how many fans got drunk and passed out, and I don’t know how many old fans shed tears, and how many young football fans planted a seed called football dream in their hearts.

......

On the next day, after a night's rest, the Chinese team immediately prepared to move to the city where the 1/8 final match was held: Pretoria.

As soon as the players walked out of the hotel, they were shocked by the spectacular sight outside!

I saw fans wearing Chinese national team jerseys standing densely outside the hotel, holding banners high, seeing off the Chinese team with excitement despite their tired faces.

When Qin Xiong appeared, the atmosphere reached its peak.

Many female fans who couldn't 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 couldn't handle it.

At this time, Qin Xiong took a stool from the hotel, then went outside and stood on the stool. After he appeared condescendingly in everyone's sight, the scene suddenly fell silent.

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

But please remember, we are Chinese!

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

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

At this moment, we are in South Africa, and countless media reporters from all over the world are watching us.

You have shocked the world!

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

But if we make the scene out of order here, how will we be reported by the outside media? "(To be continued~^~)
