Liverpool slowed down the pace of the game after gaining a two-goal lead at the start of the game.
Swansea City was probably aware of this, so they did not fight to the death with Liverpool at Anfield.
The two sides allowed the game to pass in a not intense atmosphere. In the end, Liverpool won 2: 0 at home and Swansea City continued their winning streak.
Perhaps it was because of the European game in the middle of the week.
The crazy momentum of the Premier League giants finally stopped.
Liverpool 2: 0 Swansea City.
Blackburn Rovers 0: 1 Chelsea.
Manchester United 1: 0 Sunderland.
Queen's Park Rangers 2: 3 Manchester City.
Arsenal 3: 0 West Bromwich Albion.
However, Bolton Wanderers went on a killing spree at the Reebok Stadium and sent Sky City Stoke City away with 5: 0.
After the 11th round of the league tournament, the players would rush to the national team stadium.
The situation in the Premier League table surprised the outside world.
Manchester City's terrifying state continued. After 11 rounds, they had 31 points, 10 wins and 1 draw!
They were not far from the best start in Premier League history!
Liverpool 26 points.
Manchester United 25 points.
Chelsea 22 points.
Arsenal 19 points.
.....
Qin Xiong returned to China to participate in the third stage of the World Cup qualifiers in Asia.
He met up with his national team teammates at the Xianghe National Men's Football Training Base.
Gao Hongbo specifically looked for Qin Xiong to communicate with him when he was formulating the tactics for the fourth game.
In the first three group games, the China team had won three consecutive games. The fourth game was a back-to-back game with the Iraq team.
As the leader of the group, the China team naturally had an innate advantage.
The Iraq team now only had three points.
In the same group, Jordan had six points.
In other words, the Iraq team was under a lot of pressure in this game!
If they could not get points from the China team, they would be in danger of qualifying!
In the last round, Jordan defeated the weakest team, Singapore, with 3: 0 in the away game. In this round, the Jordan team was almost certain to defeat the Singapore team.
As a result, Iraq would have to win the match against China on their home ground.
If they got one point, the difference between China and Iraq would still be six points, and China would be able to advance to the next round. Jordan was able to lead Iraq by five points, so there was no doubt that they would be the second to advance to the next round.
Because of this, Gao Hongbo and Qin Xiong discussed the tactical formulation of this game, hoping to help the China team smoothly advance to the top ten, relieve the psychological pressure early, and make the team more relaxed to prepare for the top ten in the future.
Qin Xiong's suggestion to Gao Hongbo was simple: Defend and counterattack!
Since the Iraqi team would definitely attack, or even launch a fierce attack, then the China team would just play a simple and efficient counterattack.
Gao Hongbo followed his advice and formulated a counterattack strategy during the preparation meeting for the expedition to Iraq.
The game against Iraq was not difficult. The away game was even easier than the home game.
The Iraqi team had to attack, while the China team was prepared to counterattack.
Qin Xiong and Gao Lin joined forces to attack in the front field.
Although Gao Lin had missed two golden opportunities in his counterattack, Qin Xiong still managed to perform well in many of his counterattacks.
In the 90-minute game, Qin Xiong scored a hat-trick and took care of all three of China's goals. They easily destroyed the Iraqi team and almost kicked the Iraqi team out of the World Cup!
In the other game in the same group, Jordan defeated Singapore with a score of 2: 0.
Jordan got nine points, three points behind China.
Iraq only got three points, and their elimination was almost certain.
Poor Singapore lost all four games, and they could not even see the threshold of the top ten.
China went directly from Iraq to Singapore. The fifth game of the group stage was four days away, and China would challenge Singapore in an away game.
Singapore had already been eliminated, and their morale had hit rock bottom. China announced that they had advanced to the top ten in advance. They were in good condition and had high morale.
In this game, China set a record in the away game.
They slaughtered Singapore with a score of 9: 0 in the Asian arena.
Qin Xiong, who played skillfully on the field, scored four goals in the first half, and scored two more in the second half. Qin Xiong, who scored six goals in the whole game, shocked the whole Asian football world!
The Singaporean media lamented, "The world's best football player destroyed the Singapore men's football team! In terms of stamina, speed, confrontation, technique, teamwork, awareness, and other aspects, Qin Xiong has the ability to crush the Singaporean players who are short and thin! "
The official website of the Asian Football Federation praised China's ambition to compete for the World Cup, and also hinted that Qin Xiong deserved to monopolize the Asian Footballer of the Year award for many years! This appeased the dissatisfaction of the Asian media that Qin Xiong received the award for the Asian Footballer of the Year award at the end of every year, and sometimes he did not even come to receive the award!
The official website of FIFA also reported that China's team had scored a shocking score in the third stage of the qualifiers, which was the top 20!
The photo of Qin Xiong, who scored six goals in a single game, appeared on the homepage of FIFA's official website.
FIFA praised Qin Xiong for leading the China team to achieve brilliant results in Asia, which brought positive stimulation to Asian football, and also encouraged other Asian teams to be brave enough to challenge China!
Although China had scored 19: 0 in the past, Guam and 10: 1 in the Maldives.
But it had never appeared in the top 20 of Asia!
It could be said that the China team had created a historical record on this day.
The record of the largest score difference in a single game in the top 20 of Asia.
Qin Xiong hurriedly accepted an interview after the game and left Singapore directly to return to the United Kingdom.
The China team advanced to the top 10 with five consecutive victories in the top 20, and because Jordan lost to Iraq at home, the China team directly advanced to the top of the group.
The last game would be played at the end of February next year, and Qin Xiong would not have to return to China under the great pressure of fighting in the European arena.
After returning to Liverpool F.C., Qin Xiong performed well in all aspects of his routine physical condition test.
After the team doctor, Mr. Rice, read Qin Xiong's test report, he said in amazement, "Qin Xiong's physical condition seems to be telling us what the pioneers of human evolution should be like."
It was an indisputable fact that competitive sports could drive human development and evolution. The improvement of physical function was the most important thing in sports medicine of the same era.
Just like the few people who were now known as the "strongest human" in the sports world, there were the Little Emperor James in the NBA, Usain Bolt in the track and field, and Qin Xiong and Ronaldo in the football field.
Their physical condition was, of course, extraordinary and outstanding.
Qin Xiong took it for granted. After dating him, Sylvia had a deep understanding of sports medicine, including nutrition, which ensured that his daily life was reasonable and healthy.
In addition, he did not have any bad habits. He even avoided places with second-hand smoke. It was not inconceivable that Qin Xiong's physical condition was at its peak. Moreover, it was natural that the foundation he had laid in the past allowed him to last longer than others at this age.
Because he had the ambition to make history!
