Chapter 960 World Cup, Here I Come

The World Cup in Qatar is another men's football World Cup held in Asia after the World Cup in Japan and South Korea in 2002.

At the same time, this World Cup is also the first men's football World Cup held in winter.

There is no way, because Qatar is a desert country. In June and July, it is extremely hot. The temperature often rises above 40 degrees, which can really roast a person to death.

Of course, Qatar is also a wealthy country.

They also once wanted to build a covered indoor football field and install air conditioning on the football field to solve the problem of being too hot to host the World Cup in June.

However, FIFA has considered it over and over again, and still thinks it is not too appropriate.

Because the hot weather will also bring a lot of inconvenience to the fans who come to watch the game.

The World Cup is scheduled for winter, which has a considerable impact on the football leagues of European countries.

Because football leagues in European countries are basically held across the years.

In November, when the league is in full swing, is it necessary to pause for the World Cup?

Moreover, in addition to the five major European leagues, there is another important league in Europe, the UEFA Champions League, which does not stop at all before the winter break.

In short, for this World Cup, there is a lot of trouble and chaos.

But finally it was settled.

Before flying to Qatar, the Huaguo men's football team held a grand swearing-in meeting in Beijing.

The head coach of the national football team is still Hao Wei.

Because Hao Wei has meritorious service!
It was he who led the Huaguo National Olympic Men's Football Team to win the gold medal in the Olympic Men's Football Competition and created a history of Huaguo.

Since he has made such great achievements, he was selected as the head coach of the men's national football team as a matter of course.

As I said before, the men's football teams from various countries participating in the Olympic Games are not the strongest lineup, but the youth army!
It is basically composed of players aged 23 and under.

And this time, the Chinese men's national football team also put out a complete lineup.

In addition to Wang Fei, Wu Lei, the king of martial arts, was also selected for the national team.

In addition, Huang Zichang and Zhang Yuning were also successfully selected.

After taking the oath, the Huaguo men's football team flew to Qatar from Beijing Airport.

On the day when the national football team went on the field, tens of thousands of fans and thousands of reporters came to see them off.

However, in order to avoid being disturbed, the national football team enters the airport through the green channel.

After a long flight, the plane arrived at Doha International Airport in Qatar on November 11th.

Qatar is a small country in the Middle East.

On land it only borders Saudi Arabia.

He has a long coastline of more than 500 kilometers.

The country covers an area of ​​only more than 1 square kilometers, and most of the country is covered by desert.

Water is more expensive than oil in this country.

Natural gas and oil are the backbone of the country's economy.

There is another media in Qatar that is relatively famous, and that is Al Jazeera.

It is also a small country that loves sports.

As early as 2006, the Doha Asian Games was held in Doha, Qatar.

After the plane landed.

After completing the customs clearance procedures, Wang Fei walked out of the pick-up gate with his teammates and entered the airport hall.

He originally thought that the domestic football team would not receive much attention.

After all, the World Cup is full of strong players and big-name superstars can be found everywhere.

As for the Chinese men's football team, no one is famous except themselves.

But when he walked out of the airport pick-up gate, Wang Fei saw quite a few reporters waiting in front of him.

As soon as Wang Fei appeared, the reporters started taking pictures.

Behind the reporter, there are also a large number of fans cheering loudly, both men and women, the total number is at least several hundred.

Among them, there are some Arab women who wear headscarves and cover themselves up.

"Wang, tell me your views on this World Cup, okay? Huaguo can be said to be in a death group. Do you think you can successfully break through?" A reporter asked loudly.

Wang Fei knew that there would definitely be reporters asking this question.

In the World Cup group stage, Huaguo was divided with the three countries of England, Croatia and Mexico.

England is a traditional football powerhouse, and Croatia was the runner-up of the last World Cup.Mexico can also be regarded as a football powerhouse in North America.

The strength of this group is really not weak.

Wang Fei said with a smile: "This will be a very unique World Cup. I think it will definitely be very exciting! Yes, you are right, our team is not bad, England and Croatia are both very strong , Mexico is also very strong, but what I want to say is that we are also a strong team! We will not be afraid of any opponent! I believe that we will be able to successfully break through! Qualifying from the group, this will not be a problem !"

"You are very confident! But, do you think you can beat the Croatian team? Your first opponent will be Croatia. They were the runner-up in the last World Cup!" Another reporter shouted.

Wang Fei smiled and nodded: "Croatia is indeed very strong, they have always played the role of a dark horse. They have a large number of excellent players! I am good friends with their captain Modric, you know, we are both Real Madrid players, I once told Modric that if we met in the World Cup, I would beat his team without hesitation!"

Real Madrid midfielder Modric is a Croatian.

This Modric is incredible. He once beat Ronaldo and Messi to win the Golden Globe and World Footballer.

He is known as the midfield engine of Real Madrid and Croatia.

He passes the ball accurately, has superb footwork, and is a very big pass threat.

Croatia was able to win the runner-up spot in the last World Cup. It can be said that his contribution was very great.

However, the Magic Flute is old.

He is now 37 years old.

The current Croatian national team players are generally older.

This also means that Croatia has reached the time when it needs a big change.

"Wang, you promised that after two years in European football, you would reconsider returning to the NBA. How are you thinking now?" A New York Times reporter suddenly asked.

This surprised Wang Fei a little.

It has been more than two years since I switched to football.

Could it be that the NBA still misses itself?
"I have considered it, but I think it is not the best time to return to the NBA." Wang Fei shrugged.

"However, you once promised that you will return to the Lakers in two years. The Lakers have been looking forward to your return. You can't break your promise, can you?" The New York Times reporter continued.

"No, that's not a promise, or maybe you've misremembered." Wang Fei said with a smile.

What Wang Fei didn't expect was that the New York Times reporter was obviously trying to poke a hornet's nest.

"Forget the NBA! Wang is so hot in world football now, why would he go back to the damn NBA?"

"We all love watching Wang play football! He has achieved great success on the football field and he will never return to the NBA!"

"God! Wang Ke is so popular. He has already announced his retirement from the NBA early tomorrow. Why is he still bringing up this topic?"

"Damn guy! It's really inappropriate to mention the NBA when the Football World Cup is about to be held!"

In short, many people made a lot of noise and viciously attacked the New York Times reporter.

Wang Fei shrugged.

He said to himself, it seems that he is really deeply rooted in the world football now.

My fans are now very worried about going back to play basketball.

The New York Times reporter had to flee in embarrassment.

Because he felt that if he didn't leave, he might be personally attacked.

Wang Fei accepted questions from reporters in the airport hall, and he signed autographs for several fans before he was able to walk out of the airport hall.

It's already late November.

In Huaguo, it was already freezing cold at this time.

However, this place in Qatar is affected by the marine monsoon climate, so it is not too cold.

The sun is very big in the sky.

It feels like the temperature is at least 26 degrees.

This made Wang Fei, who was dressed a little thickly, a little hot.

"Wang Fei, let me carry your luggage for you." A tall boy with a short cut came quickly and took his suitcase from Wang Fei without any explanation.

The boy's name is Wu Shuyong, and he is a substitute striker for the Huaguo Men's Football Team.

Wu Shuyong is a player of the Capital Football Club. He is not very old, just in his early 20s, with a height of 1.87 meters. He is currently performing quite eye-catching in the league. He is very threatening with his header and his footwork is quite delicate.

Also a talented young player.

"Thank you." Wang Fei smiled and said to Wu Shuyong.

"It's not hard, I'm very happy to be able to do something for the idol." Wu Shuyong said with a shy smile.

Get on the bus.

Nothing special happened along the way.

Doha is the capital of Qatar.

Located in the Persian Gulf.

It is a famous port city in the Persian Gulf.

The city is also home to more than half of Qatar's population.

The entire country of Qatar has more than 200 million people.

Calculated in this way, there are actually not many people in Doha, just over 100 million.

In Huaguo, he is simply inconspicuous.

After staying.

The Huaguo men's football team just adapts to the familiar field.

And Doha, a city in West Asia, has also become extremely lively.

The World Cup is about to be held, and fans from all over the world have begun to gather.

Among them, Europe has the most fans.

After all, Europeans are notoriously crazy about football.

Apart from the Europeans, the Chinese people came the second most.

This is the second time in the history of Chinese football that they have entered the World Cup stage. Moreover, this World Cup is led by a superstar Wang Fei. Obviously, it will not end like the last World Cup with the crown prince.

Therefore, Chinese people are quite enthusiastic about watching this World Cup.

In the blink of an eye, it was the night of the 20th, because the opening match of the World Cup was about to start, so after dinner, the leader of the Huaguo football team asked the players to go back to their rooms early to rest and recover their spirits.

For the first opponent Croatia, the Huaguo team also attaches great importance to it.

Wang Fei went back to his room and checked the time. It was only after 8 o'clock in the evening. He went to bed at this time, and he couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

Wang Fei thought to himself, why not play games for a while.

Playing games is a way for athletes to relax themselves.

However, just as he started the game, he heard a strange noise outside the window.

Wang Fei was taken aback for a moment, he turned his head to look, and found that there was a person outside the window clinging tightly to the window, looking into the room with his face pressed against the glass.
