"China has advanced! China has advanced!
After 90 minutes of battle, China defeated Denmark with 4: 3 thanks to Captain Qin's hat trick and Zhang Pengfei's goal!
The Netherlands won all their matches and won the group with 9 points.
China won two matches and lost one match and won second place with 6 points. They entered the top 16 of the World Cup in a historic way!
This is a milestone day for China's football. Today, we set a new record and completed the slogan we shouted before coming to the World Cup: Breakthrough!
I believe that at this moment in our motherland, countless China fans are so excited that they can't sleep. They are telling each other the good news that China has entered the top 16 of the World Cup!
Congratulations to China team, congratulations to China team, and we also want to praise the current China team!
Since the 2004 AFC Asian Cup, Captain Qin has led China team step by step in the past six years. He has made China's performance in the competition stage advance by leaps and bounds!
Everyone can say that Captain Qin has carried China team forward, but so what?
Captain Qin is the China player we are most proud of!
We are proud of him!
He has shouldered the responsibility of China's football moving forward. In this World Cup group stage, his five goals are worth a lot of money!
The first game allowed us to confirm our victory, and at the same time, it allowed us to have the advantage of goal difference in the final game with Denmark!
In today's game, without Captain Qin's three goals, China team is likely to be eliminated by the crazy Denmark team!
Thank you, Captain Qin, and every player in China team, as well as China's coach, Alihan. They have made China's dream come true!
Our opponent in the top 16 will be Paraguay, the top team in Group F. The following games will definitely be tough battles!
But I believe that China team will completely release all the pressure from now on.
We have already made history. There is no need to bear any more mental pressure. We should face the future games more freely!
Again, let us celebrate for China today, and let us continue to cheer for China! "
In the Royal Banfukken Stadium, China's players and coaches ran wildly on the field.
The excitement and joy of reaching the top 16 of the World Cup for the first time in history made everyone fall into an unprecedented state of madness.
Qin Xiong walked over to his Liverpool teammate, Agger. After comforting him with a few words, he went to the stands where the China fans were.
At this moment, a voice reverberated throughout the stadium from the stands.
"Qin Xiong! Qin Xiong! Qin Xiong! "
The Chinese fans had long regarded Qin Xiong as the pride of their nation, and after Qin Xiong personally helped all the Chinese fans realize the ambitions that they had never dared to imagine before, the fans unreservedly expressed their support and love for Qin Xiong.
With a smile on his face, Qin Xiong clapped with his hands raised above his head. The high-spirited Qin Xiong took off his jersey and threw it into the stands. Then, he took the game ball and walked to the players' tunnel.
In front of the players' tunnel, reporters from all over the world surrounded Qin Xiong.
Qin Xiong, who was in a good mood, stopped and prepared to answer a few questions.
"The China team has reached the top 16 of the World Cup. Does this mean that the China team has made great progress compared to before? Has China's football level also undergone an overall qualitative change? "
Qin Xiong, who was in a good mood, suddenly became a little impatient with the reporters.
They touched a sore spot.
He pondered for a moment and then said, "It's hard to say what a game and a World Cup can represent. Just like Ecuador once had an excellent record on the World Cup stage, but it doesn't mean that the overall level of Ecuadorian football is in the world's advanced ranks.
The national team and a country's football level still have to be distinguished.
I can only say that this year's China team has naturally improved compared to before, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to achieve such good results.
But when it comes to the overall level of China's football, I'm sorry, I've been playing in European football all year round. I can't answer this question because I don't know the real situation. "
"As the leader of China's football, why don't you even know the level of your own country's football?"
"Because I'm a normal person. I play for a club in Europe. I have to train, play, rest, and live a normal life. I can't ignore my wife and children, so I don't have extra energy to learn too much about the true level of China's football.
There are some things that I shouldn't worry about. I'll give some advice and share my personal experience to China's football practitioners, but it doesn't mean that I have the decision-making power and the responsibility to manage and build the development of China's football. At least I don't now. I have to do my own thing, which is work and life. My job now is to be a professional player. "
The reporter who asked the question was a foreign reporter. The China reporter couldn't listen to it anymore, so he said to Qin Xiong, "Captain Qin, hello. You don't have to care about the views of outsiders. You are already a role model for China's professional football players and young football fans. You have made unimaginable contributions. As a player, your help to the China team's performance in the international competition is also obvious to all.
I just want to know now, what do you think the China team's next goal is after achieving the goal of advancing to the top 16? "
Qin Xiong liked the reporter's words. He thought for a moment and smiled. "Go all out. As long as there are no regrets, I don't think it's important whether we achieve the goal or not. If we win, we'll be satisfied. If we lose, we don't want to lose. That's good."
"Okay, one last question. You scored five goals in the group stage. Do you think your probability of defending the World Cup Golden Boot is high?"
Qin Xiong laughed and shook his head. "I don't know. We'll know the answer to this question on the day the World Cup ends."
Including the six goals he scored in the last World Cup, Qin Xiong, who had only participated in two World Cups and played a total of six games, had scored a world-shocking 11 goals!
His scoring efficiency was close to two goals per game!
Although he scored four goals in a single game against Angola in the last World Cup, it was doubted that he won the Golden Boot.
But the five goals in this World Cup were really not exaggerated.
That was because the absence of a single goal could have led to a different final result.
After Qin Xiong pushed the reporters away and walked into the players' tunnel, the other China players also took turns to be interviewed.
They expressed their excitement of advancing to the top 16. When talking about their future goals, everyone unanimously said that they would work harder to play the next game.
After the pressure was removed, the players did not relax.
Instead, they had a stronger fighting spirit!
Because every step they took was creating China's football history!
They had the opportunity to engrave their footprints in the glorious chapter of China's football history!
