Chapter 142
I remember that when CCTV was a neighbor during the 2008 European Cup, a Northeast big brother said passionately to the camera, "How I wish the Chinese team can always surprise the fans like Turkey" (he refers to the miraculous victory over Croatia in the knockout match of Turkey).
There are miracles on the football field, but behind the miracle on the football field is strength. Although many Chinese fans made sarcastic remarks before the trip to Iraq, in their hearts, they really hope that the national football team can win once, defeat Iraq, and lay the foundation for the top 10.
But in the end the miracle did not happen, Iraq defeated the Chinese team with the goal of the veteran Younis.The national football team lost 0-1 away.
What disappointed the fans more than the loss was that the Chinese team members moved like sleepwalking on the field throughout the game.
A layman may think that the Chinese team members are being lazy again, and may even swear some ugly words, but in fact, the players did not get the tactical information formulated by Camacho until 2 hours before the game. Several tactical maps and some explanations made everyone very confused. I don’t know if the Spanish players can understand this pre-match arrangement, at least the Chinese players did not understand it.
This is why the Chinese players move chaotically on the court, which is like sleepwalking.
Another point that is incomprehensible is that although Camacho recruited new players, he did not allow them to play. Qi Bing and Wei Xiao did not have a second of playing time in the whole game. When the score fell behind, Camacho gave Li Qiao 10 minutes to play as a substitute in the second half. In the end, due to lack of tacit understanding with his teammates, Li Qiao did not create any chances in just 10 minutes.
In this way, the lack of preparation before the game and the poor on-the-spot command made it inevitable for Chinese football to lose again.
After the loss, Camacho did not attend the post-match press conference. Not only that, he also asked the whole team to keep silent, not to be interviewed by the media, and not to talk about the game privately.
On the night of the loss, the whole team immediately departed from Doha to return home by plane, and the hotel originally booked until December 12 was also canceled in advance.
On the plane, the hearts of the players felt as if they were being weighed down by a boulder. In fact, most of them were like Li Qiao, eager to play for the country. They took it as a pride to wear the national team jersey, but after the game was played like this, this pride disappeared for a while.
Halfway through the top 20 match, the Chinese team has 1 win and 2 losses. Now the group ranks third. It can be said that if they want to qualify, they must win all the next 3 games, but now the players can't think so far. They know what is waiting for them when the plane lands in BJ.
*****
As expected, angry fans and a large group of media flocked to the capital airport waiting for the players. The bishop hired for 450 million euros finally played such a game, and fans all over the country stopped doing it.
Because Camacho had issued a gag order in advance, no one dared to speak in front of the microphone extended by the reporter.
The last reporter put the microphone in front of Li Qiao and asked, "Li Qiao, what do you want to say about the loss in this game?"
Li Qiao has a lot to say, "Why didn't you send me to start, why didn't there be targeted training before the game, why didn't Camacho come to Xianghe, if Li Qiao was allowed to talk, he could talk for hours, and even make it into a talk show."
But he remembered Camacho's order, and he could say nothing.
The reporter did not let him go, and kept asking him again and again, and his voice became louder and louder. Finally, Li Qiao couldn't bear it anymore, and he said, "As long as Camacho is here, there is no hope for Chinese football"! ! !
As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet. The national team teammates in front of Li Qiao couldn't believe their ears. Although they found Li Qiao's words very enjoyable and thought they were right, none of the others dared to say such words, including the hot-tempered Li Weifeng.
The current reporters were only stunned for a moment, and then immediately gathered around to ask Li Qiao to say a few more words. The teammates of the national team knew that if they said it again, they would cause disaster, and they all came over to be Li Qiao's bodyguards, and carried Li Qiao away from the scene.
*****
There are two things in this world that cannot be undone—splashed water and spoken words. Li Qiao’s words really caused trouble. Soon, this sentence spread throughout China. The comments on the Internet were divided into two factions. Some people expressed their approval of Li Qiao, while others felt that Li Qiao was pretending to be B. Losing was because the players were too lazy, and they even blamed the coach.
The swearing on the Internet was okay, but Camacho almost exploded after hearing this sentence. He held a press conference overnight and announced that Li Qiao would be expelled from the national team. In this way, Li Qiao hastily ended his national team career after playing for the country for 10 minutes.
*****
Because of being fired, Li Qiao couldn't go to the Xianghe base like everyone else, so he had to go back to Guangzhou alone overnight.
As soon as he landed in Guangzhou, Li Qiao still faced countless reporters. Of course, this time he didn't say a word or anything.
When I got home, I turned on my phone, and the SMS box was blocked. It was Li Qiao’s friends, parents, and coaches who sent comforting text messages. Li Qiao only read a few messages, and one of them was from Coach Shi.
"Li Qiao, I watched that game live. I don't blame you for the loss. You are right. I am proud of you."
And text messages from parents,
"Joe, don't worry, it's not up to Camacho to decide on the Chinese national team. Let's appeal to the Football Association. Mom and Dad will always support you."
Diana text message,
"I heard that you got into trouble again? Do you remember the first time you went to Dynamo Kiev to train and fight with others? Seriously, I like your temper."
Li Qiao looked at Diana's text message and smiled knowingly. In fact, on the plane back to Guangzhou, Li Qiao blamed himself. After all, as a player, he should not criticize the head coach. He really shouldn't say what he said. Li Qiao thought he was too impulsive, but after reading Diana's words, Li Qiao felt impulsive. This is not the first time.
*****
After taking a shower and eating something, Li Qiao turned on the computer, and he knew what he would see. Almost every website had eye-catching slogans, such as "How long will the national football team slump", "Doha defeated", "World Cup dreams broken or something".
The above comments are considered polite, but what I saw next made people feel very uncomfortable, such as "Li Qiao slapped Camacho in the face", "National football loses and is ashamed", "National pig Li Qiao" and so on.
Li Qiao opened his Weibo again, looked at the messages, and found that there were many people who supported him, and there were also many people who scolded him.
Those who support themselves will say, "Thank you Li Qiao for speaking the hearts of countless Chinese fans",
"Li Qiao is quite right. Camacho doesn't live in China and is the head coach of the Chinese team."
Looking at it, Li Qiao's eyes suddenly lit up because he saw Diana's message, "China Joe is the best, Li Qiao is the best player and best boyfriend in the world."
Seeing this sentence, Li Qiao's heart suddenly warmed up, as if his whole body was fully charged. Originally, Li Qiao felt that after today, he would be the public enemy of Chinese football and the object of countless people's spurning, but with Diana's words, the future will be no matter how difficult it is.
After reading the messages from the supporters, Li Qiao looked at the harsh comments against him, such as, "What are you pretending to be B, there is no Conca, Recoba passes you the ball, what else would you do, don't you just run fast."
"The kid heard that he used to be in Dynamo Kiev, so he might not be able to survive in Ukraine. Then go back to China. He even became a national player. Next time I will go to Ukraine to play for two years. When I come back and become a national player, I will have everything."
There was a netizen named "Big brother is Zhu Bajie" who posted the most vicious message, "Didn't Camacho give you 10 minutes? If you have the ability, let us see if you score a goal. Is it true that if the club pays you, you will work hard. If the national team does not pay you, you will not work hard. What a ruthless bitch, and a player who is not righteous."
Li Qiao really wanted to leave a message to greet his family, but he couldn't. If he did, he would only be more passive and cause more trouble. For the first time, Li Qiao felt the other side of being a player, that is, when you lose, the people who scold you are overwhelming.
At this moment, Li Qiao saw a new Weibo post by Stan, "If you question a person who scored a hat-trick in the AFC Champions League final, then you are either an idiot or a bastard."
This sentence is obviously very supportive of Li Qiao. Sure enough, many people who scolded Li Qiao were attracted to him. Li Qiao knew that Stan was sharing the pressure for him. He was very grateful and wanted to echo Stan, so he posted some photos on his Weibo on the day of the Asian championship, and then changed his signature to, "The first Chinese to perform a hat-trick in the AFC Champions League final".
Immediately, Stan and Li Qiao's Weibo messages surged, because those who opposed felt nakedly provocative, but the question is Stan, are Li Qiao afraid?
Li Qiao looked at the words scolding him, and decided to write another Weibo, "Humble people always like to forget other people's achievements and magnify their shortcomings." After writing this sentence, Li Qiao closed his notebook.
Li Qiao looked at the night view outside the window. He knew that he had to put aside his national team stuff for the time being. Get a good night’s sleep tonight and go to Guangzhou Tianbao to report tomorrow. He still has the Club World Cup next. It’s useless to say anything now. Only a good performance in the Club World Cup is the best response to those who scold you.
Thinking of playing under Stan again, Li Qiao smiled naturally.
It has been 3 months, and I am grateful to all the readers who have read my book. Every click and every collection of yours is the biggest motivation to support me to persist until now. Without your support, I would not be able to persist for 3 weeks. I know that some readers will be unhappy when I start charging, but I still thank you for your attention, sincerely.Today's update time is 11:45, 14:45, 17:45, 19:45
