Qin Xiong was interviewed as the captain of the national team.
But it was clear that countless China fans were more interested in Qin Xiong's life in Real Madrid.
Yan Qiang took the initiative to change the topic to Real Madrid.
"Real Madrid's performance in the new season is still outstanding. How do you feel overall over there?"
Qin Xiong looked out of the window and was silent for about a minute. Then he looked at Yan Qiang again and smiled. "It's not bad. I've made a lot of new friends and gained a lot of support from new fans. The team's situation looks pretty good. At least we're at the top of La Liga."
"Has the previous conflict with Capello been resolved?"
"There is no conflict between me and him."
Qin Xiong was not lying through his teeth.
He never thought that there was a conflict between him and Capello.
It was a conflict of ideas and ideas, not a conflict of emotions.
Yan Qiang saw that Qin Xiong was unwilling to talk more about the situation in the Real Madrid locker room, so he said excitedly, "Now countless China fans are looking forward to the El Clásico in the second half of this month. Are you looking forward to it?"
Qin Xiong smiled and nodded. "Of course I'm looking forward to it. There shouldn't be a player who isn't looking forward to playing against an opponent like Barcelona."
"Barcelona still seems to be more aggressive than Real Madrid in the new season. The front line composed of Ronaldinho, Messi, and Eto 'o has been unanimously praised. Who do you think is the biggest threat in Barcelona's formation?"
"I haven't been paying attention to Barcelona's games recently, but I think it should be Ronaldinho. He's a phenomenal star player. He has enough strength to decide the game by himself."
"Compared to yourself?"
"Hahahaha, I have a heart to surpass him."
In fact, Qin Xiong had a headache when they talked about Real Madrid.
He certainly knew that the third game after the FIFA match day was the El Clásico.
But Real Madrid had a lot of internal problems. He did not know what Real Madrid had to compete with Barcelona, unless Barcelona had its own problems.
After the interview, Qin Xiong met up with the team for training.
On the night of October 12th, Qin Xiong continued to lead the China team in the AFC Asian Cup qualifiers.
Singapore resisted China's attack with tenacious fighting spirit. Qin Xiong scored the first goal for China with a direct free kick in the first half of the game. Then, they continued to attack for a long time.
In the 77th minute of the second half, the China team relied on Han Peng's goal to secure the victory. At this time, everyone was relieved.
However, three minutes after the second goal, Qin Xiong fell to the ground due to an injury in a scramble with his opponent. He stood up by himself and limped out of the field.
His expression was calm, but his eyes were filled with worry.
From August until today, he had not had a long period of rest. Coupled with the accumulation of fatigue from last season, he finally got injured in the process of holding on.
Fortunately, his body was strong and did not cause serious injuries. It was only a minor injury and he needed to rest for a week.
When Qin Xiong was injured and left the field, all the Chinese fans who came to Singapore and the local Chinese fans in Singapore stood up and applauded. They had solemn expressions and saluted Qin Xiong by applauding.
His efforts and struggle were seen by the fans. The China team's success today was inseparable from his contribution.
After winning this game, the China team was basically confirmed to advance in the group, and there was a high probability that they would be first in the group.
After the end of the national team game, the media focused on Qin Xiong's injury.
Because everyone did not want Qin Xiong to miss the El Clásico, when the national team doctor announced that Qin Xiong's injury was only a minor injury, everyone was relieved. Only then did they reflect on Qin Xiong's full attendance for more than a year!
The China football media highly praised Qin Xiong's professionalism and also defined Qin Xiong's injury as excessive fatigue.
Last season, Arsenal did not have much rest. At the end of the season, he did not stop to compete in the World Cup. After the World Cup group stage elimination, he had more than a month of rest. Compared to other players, Qin Xiong's rest time was obviously less. After going to Real Madrid, he did not miss any games, including the warm-up games.
Moreover, Qin Xiong himself was also a hardworking man in training. He was a role model on the training ground. He never used fatigue as an excuse. If he wanted to rest, he would rest. If he did not rest, he would do his best.
Therefore, he was only slightly injured this time, which was considered lucky.
It was just that when Qin Xiong returned to Madrid, the Spanish media attributed Qin Xiong's injury to the national team game, which could also be summed up as the FIFA virus!
Capello said that Qin Xiong's injury was a great loss to the team, but the team was confident that they could play well in the next round of the league tournament.
After the suspension of the center back Ramos, the Real Madrid team, who was short of players, Capello had to bring back Helguera, who was put out by him, to the First Team to act as a firefighter.
The Real Madrid fans were not worried about whether Qin Xiong could make it in time for the El Clásico, but in the Champions League next week!
The football field often proved a familiar truth: you only know how to cherish after you lose it.
After the Madrid Derby between Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid, Real Madrid continued to welcome the Madrid Derby in the sixth round of the La Liga. Their opponent was Getafe from the same city.
In the past two seasons, they only had an embarrassing record of one draw and one loss in the games against Getafe. Real Madrid originally came to the Alfonso Pérez Stadium with a belly full of anger to take revenge, but they were faced with the helplessness of being stretched too thin in the lineup.
Because of the injury, Qin Xiong also missed the chaos in the team.
In the preparation for the game against Getafe, Raúl, who was in a bad mood because he was excluded from the Spain national team by Aragonés, was attacked by Diarra on the training ground and almost had a conflict with Diarra.
Emerson stopped him in time, and Capello came forward to mediate, so that things did not develop in a bad direction.
Real Madrid, who had everything going wrong, saw Salgado recover from his injury and return, but he suffered a minor injury in training. It was expected that his return would be delayed.
Cannavaro was also injured on the day of the FIFA game. Although the injury was not serious, he also missed the weekend's game.
Capello's starting lineup at the Alfonso Pérez Stadium looked very different from the ideal lineup of the fans.
Just looking at the rear defensive line made people very uneasy.
Messiah, who was beaten black and blue in the Madrid Derby.
Helguera, who had been out of the game for a long time.
And Bravo, who had always been expected but could not reach the ideal height.
The remaining Carlos was also past his peak. If such a rear defensive line was to persist for a season, then Real Madrid's defensive line was bound to be ravaged by their opponents in turn.
