Chapter 326: Xiongguan Mandao is really like iron, and now it's starting from scratch
Gao Zheng's goal in the last moment of the first half almost broke the mentality of Qatar players.
If it weren't for the halftime break next, many of them might have been unintentional to play.
Now at least fifteen minutes are left to let them slow down. Listen to the head coach to adjust, inspire their fighting spirit, and calm their panic-in-one hearts.
However, the Chinese team's halftime break can also be adjusted.
During the halftime break, Perrin criticized the performance of other players besides Gao Zheng: "...even if we have advanced to the top 12 in advance, I believe that fans in China do not want to see you perform like this! I asked you to play because I hope you cherish every minute of the game opportunity, not to let you sleepwalking on it! If you don't care about this opportunity to play, then I promise that after entering the top 12, I will not recruit you into the national team again, and I will not give you any chance to play any more. Anyway, you don't want to play!"
This was said very seriously, which made the Chinese players in the locker room dare not breathe, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.
If you only watch this scene, outsiders will definitely not expect that the current score of the game is that the Chinese team leads Qatar 2:0. If it turns out, it may be more convincing...
After being severely scolded by Perrin, the Chinese team's performance in the second half has indeed improved and is no longer as careless as in the first half.
So the Qatari players who finally adjusted their mentality during the half-time break, so long after the second half, they found that the Chinese team was very motivated and seemed to fight with them...
Many Qatari players were crying in their hearts: Haven’t you all advanced to the top 12 ahead of schedule? And they were two goals ahead of us in this game, so why are you still doing so hard? Even if you win five goals or ten goals, what’s the point?!
Carenho no longer stood on the sidelines to supervise the battle. He sat on the coach's seat and felt as if he was dead.
He would still place his hope of advancing to the top 12 on the fact that the other three teams cannot win at the same time. At least the probability of scoring like this is a bit higher. It is basically impossible to make a comeback in the away game now...

Although the Chinese team's performance in the second half improved, Perrin replaced Gao Zheng early in the 63rd minute, so until the end of the game, the Chinese team did not score another goal.
The game ended with a score of 2:0.
The reason why not scoring another goal is not that the Chinese team's players performed poorly, but that when Gao Zheng and Wu Lei were not on the court, the Chinese team once again fell into the dilemma of "powerless striker".
In the second half, the Chinese team could be said to have controlled the midfield and created many opportunities to score, but no one could grasp it.
CCTV commentator He Ping tactfully expressed his concerns about this attacking lineup to play in the top 12 games. Once Gao Zheng has any accidents, the Chinese team's scoring ability is worrying...
But on this happy day, he didn't say much, so as not to ruin everyone's mood, and no one could appreciate it.
He believes that Perrin's coaching staff must have realized this problem and will make improvements in the future.
Now, let’s cheer and celebrate first.
At the end of the game, he shouted excitedly: "The game ends! The Chinese team defeated Qatar 2-0 at home and advanced to the next stage of the qualifiers, that is, the top 12 games! The national football team has not been able to reach the last stage of the qualifiers for fourteen years! The road to the climax is as iron as iron, and now we are taking a step back! Now, we are one step closer to the Russian World Cup!"
In the entire land of China, countless Chinese fans were cheering and celebrating, and were full of various beautiful expectations and longings for the top 12 games.
On the court, Gao Zheng and his teammates were also celebrating this historical moment. The cameras on the TV broadcast were firmly aimed at him, paying attention to every hug and high-five of him and his teammates.
As for Qatar, no one paid attention to it, and no one even knew when they left the market...
The Qatar fans in the stands also retreated completely.
In the end, only Chinese fans were reluctant to leave. The Chinese players also joined hands to circle the field, constantly waved to the Chinese football fans in the stands, applauded and thanked them for their unremitting support.
They also played the Viking War Cry game with Chinese fans in the stands. They clapped their hands together with the roar, and the pace became faster and faster, and eventually formed endless applause.
Such a harmonious and friendly scene is really rare in Chinese football. The last time it may have been at the Australian Asian Cup in early 2015...

"I feel good, just wait and see who will be in the same group with the top 12..." Xiao Yingying in front of the TV said happily.
At this moment, she saw Sister Feng next to her open her mouth and seemed to be talking. She quickly covered Sister Feng's mouth: "Sister Feng, stop talking! You crow's mouth, don't make a good sign for the Chinese team! I will tell you, I won't talk about Atletico Madrid's draw, and I will be eliminated if I am eliminated. At most, I will be unhappy for one day. But if the Chinese team cannot enter the World Cup, I will be unhappy for two years!"
Feng Shiyao blinked, and after Xiao Yingying let go of her hand, she asked, "Why is it two years?"
"I've been upset until the end of the World Cup in Russia!"
"Are you a Scorpio? You're such a revenge?"
"This has nothing to do with the constellation, Sister Feng. Let's look at the World Cup, how uncomfortable it doesn't seem to be without the Chinese team? Then when we see things, when we think that the Chinese team has not advanced to the World Cup, will we not all the new and old hatreds come out?"
Seeing that Xiao Yingying was so terrible, Feng Shiyao quickly raised her hands and made a surrender statement: "Don't worry, I won't predict the lottery result."
In essence, she is still a fake fan, but she is not the kind of fake fan who doesn't watch the football game at all, but only watches the World Cup every four years. On the contrary, she usually watches Atletico Madrid games almost every game.
But she is Gao Zheng's pseudo-fan. If Gao Zheng was not there in the World Cup, she would not be interested no matter how lively she was.
So she also hopes that Gao Zheng and the Chinese team can reach the World Cup finals.
"By the way, when is the lottery draw?" she asked casually.
"What are you doing?" Xiao Yingying immediately glanced at her vigilantly.
Feng Shiyao was amused and crying: "I really don't predict, I just want to know when the result will come out."
"April 12th." Xiao Yingying said then.
"It's been a few days..."
"I wish I would draw lots tomorrow. There was a big stone pressing down on me in my heart, which felt really uncomfortable." Xiao Yingying muttered.
Feng Shiyao smiled: "Then you can't delay your work."
"Don't worry, Sister Feng, I can tell it clearly!"
