In the 77th minute, when Zhou Yi was protecting the ball in front of the opponent's penalty area, he was pushed to the ground by the opponent's player. The referee gave the Chinese team a free kick.

This free kick, which was 28 meters away from the goal, was taken by Hao Junmin.

His free kick went around the Oman wall and into the goal...

Hao Junmin!!! Ahhhh! What a wonderful free kick! 3:1! The Chinese team will definitely win this game! He Ping shouted excitedly. What made him excited was not the goal. , but the meaning of this goal - the victory is determined!

The Chinese team defeated Oman in the away game and will be able to advance to the World Cup finals two rounds in advance!

This is the common goal and dream of all Chinese football people - including media reporters, commentators, fans, players, coaches, and Football Association officials!

For this dream, Chinese football has worked hard for countless years. Forty-four years were exchanged for a release in the top ten games in 2001. Then Chinese football entered a trough, and it seemed that there would be no time to see the light of day again. Unexpectedly, starting from 2o11, good news came one after another, which actually gave everyone a little hope.

In the Asian Cup at the beginning of 2o11, the Chinese team was originally not optimistic. Even the head coach of the national team said before the game that the Chinese team was Asia's third-rate team. As a result, under the leadership of Zhou Yi, the Chinese team made it all the way to the finals. If it had not been suspended for one game due to a foul in the semi-finals, and would not have been able to make it to the finals, the final Asian champion might not have been the Japanese team. .

In the 2012 London Olympics, the National Olympic team formed with the core of the five little dragons who played in Europe was unstoppable. It finally defeated the Japanese Olympic team and won the gold medal in Olympic football. It created the history of Chinese football and also created a new world. The history of the Chinese Olympic Games - before that, the only gold medal record of the Chinese sports delegation in major Olympic sports was the Chinese women's volleyball team, so the women's volleyball team can be called spiritual. The performance of the Chinese Olympic team at the London Olympics created new history. In major sports, Chinese male athletes also won gold medals.

By the time of the top ten games in 2013, the national team, which had added the Olympic champion lineup, also performed well in the World Cup qualifying matches, giving many fans hope of reaching the World Cup finals again.

If the Chinese team hadn't unexpectedly lost to Qatar at home, the Chinese team might have gotten a ticket to Brazil in advance...

Therefore, the possibility of the Chinese team participating in the World Cup in Brazil is not a topic that suddenly appeared in the past few days, but has been going on for a long time. Since the Chinese team drew with Japan in an away game last year,

After defeating Australia at home, everyone has been talking about this topic.

Everyone is mentally prepared.

But when happiness really strikes suddenly, the huge impact still catches everyone off guard.

In fact, He Ping knew that before this game, domestic CCTV had prepared two sets of plans. One was naturally that the Chinese team would defeat Oman in an away game and obtain the right to participate in the World Cup finals in advance. CCTV would have a special series The reports and program arrangements were as detailed as how to type subtitles.

Another plan is that the Chinese team is tied by Oman in the away game, or simply loses to Oman, and cannot qualify in advance. What will CCTV do?

This is no secret, and it is not an exclusive method of CCTV. When facing such a major event, all media will prepare two sets of plans in advance - success and failure.

Of course, everyone hopes that the failed plan will not come into use...

After Hao Junmin scored, the Chinese fans in front of the TV cheered.

The game attracted so much attention that live broadcasts were arranged in bars, restaurants and even movie theaters across the country.

Instead of being at home, everyone gathered in those places to watch the game with others.

Now, they are all hugging each other tightly, celebrating the victory - although the game is not over yet, everyone thinks that the Chinese team will win this game.

This is different from the game 12 years ago, when the Chinese team only defeated Oman 1:0 at home. Oman could equalize the score at any time during the game.

Now the Chinese team is two goals ahead of Oman!

Such a huge gap in strength makes the two-goal lead like an insurmountable chasm.

This scene of the fans celebrating wildly was also captured by television stations from all over the country. These are not only news materials, but also become a precious record of Chinese football reaching the World Cup finals for the second time.

A few years later, it will be released in the form of a documentary to let people see what Chinese football was like at that time.

The Chinese fans in the camera burst into tears and cheered ecstatically. After experiencing the dark days after the World Cup in Japan and South Korea, Chinese fans have deeper feelings about today.

This day was so hard to come by!

On the Internet, it's even more lively.

Some people couldn't wait to refresh the screen: We won! We qualified! Brazil, here we come! and so on.

Everyone was happily discussing what would happen after qualifying.

Although the Internet is a virtual world where everyone is not face to face, cannot see other people's expressions, and cannot hear other people's voices, everyone can still easily release their feelings just from these words and emoticon pictures.

The World Cup Finals has always been the highest pursuit and goal of Chinese football: winning the World Cup is unrealistic, and everyone will be very satisfied if they can participate in the World Cup Finals.

During every World Cup, China's media will devote a lot of energy, manpower and material resources to reporting on sports events. The scale of coverage is no less than that of the Olympic Games, and the attention it receives is not as fast as that of the Olympic Games.

But you must know that the Chinese team did not participate in the events that their country's media and fans paid so much attention to.

This is really a reality that people don’t know how to describe - as an unrelated bystander, it is really amazing to be able to fully participate in it to such an extent. It is difficult to find another national team in the world. There is no example of such an influential event in China that I did not participate in.

Football is the number one sport in the world, but if it is just the number one sport played by others and has nothing to do with you, then why is it so rare?

During the World Cup, the majority of Chinese fans supported the German team, some supported the Brazilian team, some were die-hard fans of Argentina, some were fans of England, some were hardcore Spanish fans, and some were supporters of France, Italy, the Netherlands... , even Japan and South Korea have a large number of fans in China.

Fans can burst into tears after the team they support is eliminated from the World Cup.

When the team they support wins the World Cup, they feel like it's a holiday.

But we cannot say that they are unpatriotic, worship foreigners, or anything like that.

It's just that the inner emotions of the majority of fans cannot be supported by Chinese football, so they need to look for spiritual support outside.

If the Chinese team is very good and can participate in the World Cup finals every time, I believe that no matter how much Chinese fans support Brazil, Argentina, Germany, England, etc., they must put their support for the Chinese team first.

It's a pity that over the past many years, the Chinese team has not been able to get their support - if they can't even participate in the World Cup, what else can they support?

Now that the Chinese team has returned to the World Cup, they have also rediscovered their spiritual sustenance. Maybe in the World Cup, they will still support the teams they already support, but when there is a match with the Chinese team, the Chinese team will always be the first choice.

In reality and online, Chinese fans are celebrating qualifying.

Although the game is not over yet, there is also a joyful atmosphere in the Chinese team's coaching bench.

Gao Hongbo and his assistants all had smiles on their faces.

Everyone knew that the game was won. There is no suspense.

This is indeed the case.

Next, after the game restarted, the Chinese team played with ease. With a two-goal lead, they could play as they wanted without Gao Hongbo going to the sidelines to make adjustments.

If Oman wants to attack with all their strength, the Chinese team can counterattack and score another goal.

If Oman is afraid of the Chinese team's counterattack, shrinks its defense and is unwilling to attack, then the Chinese team will not mind slowly dealing with them and running out of game time. Anyway, this score remained until the end, so they won.

Today's Chinese team is completely invincible.

Finally, after five minutes of injury time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game.

The following sentence was printed on the TV screen that Chinese fans were watching: We qualified!!

When this picture appeared in front of everyone's eyes, many old fans were stunned for a moment - in a trance, they thought they had traveled back to October 7, 2001, at Shenyang Wulihe Stadium, when the Chinese team 1: oAfter defeating Oman, the same sentence flew out on the TV screen: We qualified!

In front of the TV, young people were cheering and roaring at the top of their lungs, while almost all the fans over thirty years old were in tears...
