Early morning of June 30th.
Countless reporters had gathered outside the hotel early. Countless cameras were set up and aimed at the entrance of the hotel as if they were cannons.
The bride, Sylvia, was staying in another hotel in the west of the city with her female friends.
Because Qin Xiong and Sylvia could be called orphans, they had no parents.
Therefore, the wedding process was shortened. Today, Qin Xiong only needed to pick up Sylvia from the hotel in the west of the city to the wedding.
At eight o 'clock in the morning, it was a sunny day with no clouds. Qin Xiong, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, appeared at the entrance of the hotel with a group of people.
Standing beside him were Snede, Fàbregas, Van Persie, Reyes, Van Der Vaart, Maxwell, Ramos, and Qin Xiong, a total of eight people.
Imposing luxury cars stopped in front of the hotel one by one. Tang Le came down from the driver's seat of the first car. He threw the key to Qin Xiong and said with a smile, "Your team of people picking up the bride today is a bit scary."
Qin Xiong shrugged and said with a smile, "If you want to get married, I can also pull a group of people for you."
After joking around, Qin Xiong got into the driver's seat and drove away. Then, his friends got into the car behind one after another. Each of them followed Qin Xiong's car to the west of the city.
The imposing motorcade was in a neat formation on the road. There were media interview cars on both sides of the road. They seemed to be tracking and filming, recording this unique scene.
In the hotel in the west of the city, Sylvia had already put on her wedding dress. Even though she had been living with Qin Xiong for a long time, she was still very excited at this moment.
Finally, finally, she was going to marry him!
After Qin Xiong picked up Sylvia from the hotel, the motorcade returned to the wedding venue. In the banquet hall, Qin Xiong and Sylvia put on each other's wedding rings in front of everyone. The scene of them hugging and kissing each other exploded the atmosphere.
His friends sincerely wished him well and were happy for him.
In the corner, Freddy's eyes were a little wet.
Freddy, who used to be a loner in a corner as if he was the only one in the world, could be so happy today. That made him feel more proud and satisfied than Freddy's own happiness.
After the wedding, Qin Xiong was no exception. He took Sylvia to the Maldives for their honeymoon and enjoyed their time together.
In fact, Qin Xiong had brought his own sports team to the Maldives to monitor his recovery. This was also the reason why Qin Xiong chose the Maldives.
He would have his own piece of sunshine, a small island, a beach, and an ocean. He would be together with the person he loved and would not be disturbed by the world.
.....
Some of the European football stars who attended Qin Xiong's wedding left after the wedding, while others continued to stir up the football star craze in China. They formed a group to travel and sightsee in China's scenic spots. Tang Le was there to take care of everything, so they could also achieve the purpose of a relaxing vacation.
At the beginning of July, the China national team went to Malaysia to participate in the 2007 AFC Asian Cup jointly organized by the four countries in Southeast Asia!
The AFC Asian Cup opened on July 7. Qin Xiong was on the list of players submitted by the China team before the start of the tournament.
But on the opening day of July 7, Qin Xiong was still not in the China team.
Whether Qin Xiong would participate in the AFC Asian Cup or not became a concern for China's fans and media. It was also a matter that the AFC officials attached great importance to. They repeatedly probed the China Football Association to inquire: Would Qin Xiong play?
As a hot superstar in Asian and European football, the impact of Qin Xiong's appearance on the overall game could not be ignored, especially since the China team was the defending champion of the AFC Asian Cup!
On the morning of July 8, at the international arrival exit of the international airport in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia.
Media reporters from various countries focused on the AFC Asian Cup were waiting here.
After seeing a man dressed casually and wearing fashionable sunglasses walk out with a woman dressed casually and wearing fashionable sunglasses, the reporters swarmed forward to take photos and ask questions.
A day after the start of the AFC Asian Cup, the biggest news during the AFC Asian Cup had nothing to do with the results of the game.
Because the news that made the headlines of the football media was the same.
The captain of the China team, the superstar Qin Xiong who played for Real Madrid.
It's here!
.....
After arriving in Kuala Lumpur, Qin Xiong went directly to meet up with the China national team.
The China national team also held a press conference in the evening. Manager Ali Khan announced the return of Qin Xiong to the team!
The return of the captain injected a shot of confidence into the team, making the China team full of confidence for the next game.
July 10.
China's first opponent in the AFC Asian Cup group stage was Uzbekistan.
The other two opponents in the same group were Iran and one of the hosts, Malaysia.
In the first game of the group stage, Qin Xiong sat on the bench, which disappointed many China fans.
Qin Xiong had recovered from his injury, but it did not mean that he could directly play in a high-intensity game after recovering. To be safe, Ali Khan let Qin Xiong sit on the bench first. Of course, this was approved by Qin Xiong himself.
Uzbekistan performed very well in the first game. The China team was obviously disorganized without Qin Xiong. Their defense was fine, but their offense was a little messy.
At the end of the first half, Uzbekistan led the China team by 1: 0.
At the start of the second half, Ali Khan made a substitution.
Qin Xiong came on!
After Qin Xiong came on, both the atmosphere in the stands and the team's performance on the field were refreshed.
Qin Xiong's role as the backbone was clear at a glance.
In the 61st minute of the game, Qin Xiong pulled the side and made a pass, causing the opponent's goalkeeper to make a mistake. Shao Jiayi pushed the empty goal from the edge of the penalty area and scored.
The China team equalized the score.
In the 73rd minute of the game, Qin Xiong received Zhang Pengfei's straight ball on the defensive line and then swayed past the Uzbekistan defender in the penalty area to shoot the goal in the far corner!
After the goal, Qin Xiong appeared to be extremely restrained. He was not in his best condition, but with his rapid improvement in European football in recent years, he appeared to be more relaxed and calm in the Asian arena.
He did not need to play 100% of his strength to break down the opponent's defense.
After Qin Xiong scored to help the team reverse the score, the China fans in the stands shouted a rather domineering sentence in unison.
"Your emperor is back!"
The game continued, and Uzbekistan began to press heavily. In the 85th minute of the game, Uzbekistan's defense was broken by Qin Xiong's direct pass. Han Peng was knocked down in the penalty area, and the China team was awarded a penalty kick. Qin Xiong scored the penalty kick in one fell swoop.
Qin Xiong, who came on in the second half, directly performed a wonderful performance with two goals and an assist.
Although Uzbekistan recovered a goal from a corner kick in the remaining time, the China team successfully won the group stage with a score of 3: 2 at the end of the game.
