To Qin Xiong's relief, the mentality of the China Olympic team had been greatly improved.
They did not take a casual attitude towards the game because of the early qualification, nor did they panic because of the powerful Brazilian Olympic team.
Gradually, the fans in the stands were also impressed by the attitude of the China Olympic team in the game.
Even though it looked a little embarrassing.
The China Olympic team was besieged by the Brazilian Olympic team in the half of the field!
But the young men of the China Olympic team were united in stopping the Brazilian team from breaking through their own gate.
Intensive defense, iron bucket formation, foul tactics, blocking the opponent's shot with their bodies in front of the goal line.
The China Olympic team, which was in constant danger, seemed to be fighting against the Brazilian Olympic team with their lives!
Young players like Feng Xiaoting, Zhao Xushui, Zhou Haibin, Chen Tao, and Gao Lin all knew that there was a gaze watching them from the sidelines.
It was the gaze from Qin Xiong.
They admired and respected Qin Xiong from the bottom of their hearts, were impressed by his fighting will and spirit, and consciously followed his footsteps. Even if it was impossible to replicate Qin Xiong's achievements, in their view, that was the most correct path.
They could not practice Qin Xiong's superb skills, but at least they could close the gap with Qin Xiong in terms of spiritual will and mentality.
It was under the impetus of such willpower that the China Olympic team showed a strong resistance. Such a scene looked very tragic, but it was also very infectious.
Gradually, the grandstand began to resound with magnificent cheers and cheers.
Those were the China fans from the mainland. They were cheering for the China team every time they broke the siege, every time they destroyed, and every time they used their bodies to block the Brazilian team's shot and send the ball into the goal.
Dujković, who was sitting in the technical area, suddenly turned his head and looked at Qin Xiong, who looked as usual.
He secretly said in his heart, "Too fragile!"
His thought was that the lifeline of the China team's success was too fragile!
Whether it was the China Olympic team or the national team, once there was no Qin Xiong, the team's combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced. This did not mean that the team's fighting spirit had disappeared.
Instead, from a technical and tactical point of view, it was impossible to win a match simply by taking a beating passively.
The China team wanted to play defensive counterattack, which was almost equivalent to pinning the hope of victory on Qin Xiong.
But on second thought, Dujkovic felt that this kind of gambling and even abnormal situation was reasonable.
The China team could only rely on Qin Xiong in order to have any hope of achieving great things, and not just achieve a breakthrough in the Asian arena, but truly achieve the goal of going global!
It was Qin Xiong who was carrying the national team to the world!
China's Olympic team resisted for most of the game and finally announced that the city gate had fallen in the 75th minute of the game.
After Ronaldinho and Diego repeatedly knocked into the wall, they attracted most of the defenders in front of the penalty area and sent a wonderful pass to Pato.
Brazil's golden boy, Pato, scored the opening goal for Brazil's Olympic team!
Because of the gap in strength, the exhausted China Olympic players helplessly watched Brazil's Olympic team celebrate the goal. Many of them lowered their heads and felt ashamed.
So far in the game, China's Olympic team had only shot four times, and two of them hit within the goal range. Their offense could be described as terrible. More than 90% of their forces were on defense, and in the end, the city gate was breached by the opponent.
At this time, Qin Xiong stood up and clapped with a solemn expression. His applause was obviously to motivate his teammates on the field.
When the fans around Qin Xiong followed suit, the momentum they caused attracted the attention of the players on the field.
The players of China's Olympic team looked towards the stands of the stadium and were stunned to see Qin Xiong applauding for them. Qin Xiong's serious expression and determined eyes seemed to have a strong infectious power that went straight to their hearts!
The players of the China Olympic team instantly understood.
Qin Xiong was reminding them not to give up, not to break the pot, and not to lose the balance of their mentality!
Now, they were in trouble!
At this time, they must not fall. Otherwise, their efforts in the first 75 minutes may be worthless in the last 15 minutes of the game. It never took long for a team to collapse. Three minutes? Five minutes? Ten minutes? A collapsing team could lose in a split second!
Yes, in the face of the powerful Brazil Olympic team, China's Olympic team was powerless. But don't forget!
This was China!
This was China's territory. We can lose, why can't we?
We can lose the game, but we can't lose our spirit, will, and dignity!
The players of China's Olympic team seemed to be revived in an instant. Their teammates actively encouraged each other and took out a new spirit to face the rest of the game.
After the goal, Brazil's Olympic team removed the pressure from their long offensive and suddenly became more relaxed.
As long as they were not reversed by China's Olympic team, even if they equalized the score, Brazil's Olympic team would advance to the top eight of the group. Therefore, they played more freely.
China's Olympic team continued to resist and destroy Brazil's Olympic team's offensive with tenacious will.
Qin Xiong participated in the action of applauding and encouraging the team. He drove the atmosphere of the live stands to cheer for China's Olympic team!
The real home atmosphere soon lingered in the Qinhuangdao Olympic Sports Center Stadium.
In the face of real difficulties, China's Olympic team did not collapse!
They did not give up!
As always, they were serious and focused on the game. They were indeed not as good as others, but they were doing everything they could to defend their dignity!
This might be a rare scene for China's fans in recent years. The fighting spirit of China's Olympic team was shocking, even more than most of the national team's games.
Perhaps it was because the China Olympic team was still young and had not reached the age to really go with the flow. There were still many people with dreams and persistently pursued their football dreams!
In the end, China's Olympic team lost the first place of the group with a score of 0: 1 in the Qinhuangdao Olympic Sports Center Stadium!
But after the game, when they were exhausted and drenched in sweat and wanted to fall down, bending over and barely standing with their hands on their thighs, the stadium echoed with a long applause.
The boys looked up in amazement and looked around the stadium. The lovely fans in the stands did not criticize them for embarrassing the China people, nor did they leave disheartened. Instead, they nodded and applauded in the stands, and some of them shouted in unison, "Keep it up!"
China's Olympic team lost the game, but they won the hearts of the fans.
Sometimes, what the fans wanted was not invincibility, but whether the team had the courage to draw their swords in a narrow path!
Qin Xiong walked into the stadium. He looked at his exhausted teammates and smiled from the bottom of his heart.
Qin Xiong's eyes were burning as he looked at Brazil's Olympic team, who were celebrating their victory in groups of three or five.
The current China Olympic team had the power to fight!
Next, every game was a battle of life and death, because the opponent would not be weak!
Then, let's fight!
The warrior was the hero!
