Chapter 1176 Hero
At noon on October 12, Xi'an International Airport.
When the airport broadcast the charter flight on which the national team successfully landed at the airport, there was a burst of cheers in the entire waiting hall, and the momentum was shocking. Thousands of fans and media reporters who came to the scene gathered towards the airport gate.
Not long after, the national team, led by head coach Gao Han, appeared one after another.
All the fans and media reporters gathered at the scene spontaneously abide by the order of the ground staff on the scene, and gave the most warm thunderous applause to the national players who returned from triumphantly. Countless fans at the scene raised Gao Han’s cards to express their respect for the head coach of the national team.
Who would have thought that half a year ago, the national team was still desperate about whether they could qualify for the top 40s. Everyone felt that the national team would once again stop outside the top 12 games. However, they did not expect that half a year later, this national team also broke through from the top 40s, but also won repeatedly in the top 12 games.
From South Korea to Iran, to Syria and Uzbekistan, the Chinese team played very difficult every game, and it can even be said to have won very tragic. But it is precisely because of this that the importance of head coach Gao Han and the current fighting spirit and bloodiness of this national team are further reflected.
It can be said that so far, each of the four victories in the top 12 games has been achieved through the concerted efforts of all international players and the extraordinary command of Gao Han, which can lead to a difficult victory.
What makes people even more ecstatic is that while winning consecutive games, the national team's performance is getting better and better, the players' positions are becoming more and more hierarchical, and the running without the ball is becoming more and more insightful, and the atmosphere inside the team is becoming more and more united.
All of this makes people see hope.
It is precisely because of this situation where skills are inferior to others, fight one after another and defeat strong enemies with difficulty. This further demonstrates the national football team's blood and further demonstrates the profound changes that Gao Han has brought to the national team.
If Gao Han gave people the impression that he was an offensive football master in the past, then after coaching the national team, he completely allowed everyone to see his defensive achievements. It was precisely because of his training that the original weak defense of the national football team has undergone a complete transformation and can block the attacks of powerful enemies from South Korea, Iran and Uzbekistan one after another.
Gao Han's contribution and the transformation of the national team are all seen by fans across the country.
After the game last night, the internationals flew back to Xi'an from Tashkent, Uzbekistan, overnight after a break, and arrived at noon Beijing time.
Next, the national team will be disbanded on the spot, and all international players will immediately return to the club on domestic flights in Xi'an to prepare for the remaining final matches of the Chinese Super League, and finally reassemble in Kunming in November to prepare for the last game of the first cycle, with the opponent being Qatar.
The national team's itinerary has been arranged, and all international players' flight tickets to return to the club have been booked in advance. Therefore, after the national players return to China, they do not need to worry too much. They are only allowed to go directly to the hotel to rest and wait until the return flight time arrives. Moreover, there will be special staff from the national team responsible for reminding and supporting.
After Gao Han coached the national team, logistics work was also the focus of his focus. Now it has been handled very well, leaving the international players without any worries. In addition, the players just won the ball in Tashkent a few hours ago, and they were still very excited. Therefore, when they saw thousands of fans in the airport picking up the plane, they all laughed from ear to ear.
The ground crew at the airport had already seen the appeal of the national team once when the national team flew from Wuhan to Xi'an to prepare for the Syrian game, which was completely incomparable to the weak national team in the past.
Not to mention the entire national team, even a single national team star is not inferior to that of the popular stars. Now Gao Han is leading the team himself, which is naturally more attractive.
The team won four consecutive victories and ranked first in the group with a three-point advantage. Gao Han was in a very good mood. When he walked in the front, he saw that he was stopped outside the security line by ground staff from time to time, but he stuck his hand out his hand and handed it in to the fans who came in to the autograph book, he would nod with a smile, reach out to take it, and quickly sign his name on it.
The international players following him were the same, signing autographs for the fans as they did, which made the fans on the scene even more excited, especially many fans who had not prepared before, all regretted it. Some middle-aged fans were even more funny. They took off their coats and asked Gao Han to sign their name on his white shirt, saying that they wanted to take it back for collection.
I walked and stopped along the way, but finally reached the gate.
The national team's bus has been waiting outside the gate for a long time, and Gao Han and the international players have also gotten on the bus one after another.
Although they were through the thick car windows, they could still hear loud shouts from fans outside the car, which made the old international players in the national team feel very sad.
How many years have it been?
Since entering the World Cup in 2002, how many years has the national team not thought of such treatment?
Although the national team has performed well in the past few years, and has repeatedly allowed fans to see hope and rekindled their enthusiasm, they have never received such treatment as they are now.
It turns out that the feeling of being a hero is so wonderful!

I slept for a short time in the hotel, and it was already dinner time when I woke up.
After Gao Han finished washing his clothes, the first thing he did was to call the team leader Li Tie to ask about the national players' movements. He learned that the national players had basically boarded the return plane, and some had even arrived. After looking at the messages in the national team's WeChat group, he felt relieved.
As for himself, he will return to Beijing tomorrow morning, start a period of vacation, and go to the Super League to inspect it, not only to prepare for the next game against Qatar, but also to find a bottom for the next national team training camp.
This is the first time that Gao Han has had a long training opportunity since he took over the national team. He will hold a Chinese Cup and invite some strong teams to fight, so Gao Han plans to take this opportunity to inspect the new players and active internationals.
This time, the national team training camp was a shortage of personnel at the left-back position, which really bothered him for a long time. Fortunately, Ren Xing's defense did not make much mistake in the end, which made Gao Han feel relieved.
But it is imperative to select substitute talents for the national team.
While Gao Han was waiting for the hotel to deliver food, Deputy Director Cai, who was staying in Xi'an, led several internal tycoons of the Football Association, rang Gao Han's doorbell. As soon as he entered the door, he praised Gao Han, saying that many superior leaders personally called to praise him.
Gao Han was already unaware of this and did not take it seriously at all.
"My suggestion in the two warm-up matches of the Chinese Cup is that it is best to invite opponents with stronger strength than us, and it is best to be an offensive team. In this way, it will be more conducive to polishing our defense." Gao Han suggested.
He is very confident when checking in Qatar.
If the Chinese team ends the first round with five consecutive victories, then the remaining five rounds of games will be easy to play, and they will have a great advantage in both strategic and psychological aspects.
Of course, the strength of the national team is there, and defensive counterattack is inevitable.
"Okay, we will arrange this matter as soon as possible. When there is news, we will notify you as soon as possible." Deputy Director Cai made the decision on the spot.
The current national team matters are basically the same as Gao Han said.
"By the way, we'll come tonight, there's one more thing," said Deputy Director Cai.
"What's up?"
"What you proposed before was that the Football Association led by the club and the national team jointly formed a training system and a rehabilitation physiotherapy system. After many meetings and negotiations, it has been basically decided and will be implemented from the spring training of the new season. So during the next period, major clubs will arrange a large number of coaches to come and study."
Gao Han thought for a while and nodded, "The staff in Beijing Chinatown is probably not enough. At that time, I will try my best to draw a group of people from other domestic bases and from Madrid. Moreover, we have also cultivated a lot of people in recent years, and I will try my best to arrange them."
"That's good. This is the first time after all, and there will definitely be many problems, but the general direction has been settled, so let's slowly get in and coordinate. Whether it is us or the club, we trust Chinatown's strength in this area."
Not to mention the others, even the stars who left the team praised it. Among the selections of many European media, Chinatown's training level is definitely the world's top.
Besides, Gao Han has founded coaching training classes in Europe for many years and has cooperated with Italy, which has cultivated many coaching talents for both Spain and European football. He is here to come forward and believes that this problem should be solved.
"In terms of rehabilitation and physiotherapy system, the Football Association and the club have reached a consensus, but the domestic sports medicine started relatively late, and there is currently a shortage of talents in this area. Therefore, we are considering cooperating with universities and universities. At present, several well-known domestic universities have expressed their interest, and we also have authoritative experts in this area."
Gao Han is not surprised by this, but this rehabilitation physiotherapy system is mainly for the services provided by the national team and major professional clubs, and the talents in related fields are also very lacking. In the current domestic environment of shortage of medical talent resources, the national team and clubs are helpless. The machinery and equipment introduced simply by spending money is the easiest to do.
Not only medical talents, but also talents in related fields of the football industry are also extremely scarce. After all, Chinese football is far from developing to the European professional level and is still in a stage of catching up.
Gao Han was also helpless about this, but this was the national situation. Not to mention him alone, it would be difficult for the entire Chinatown to change, so he planned that if he really succeeded in acquiring the Beijing team, he would consider directly drawing personnel from Madrid Chinatown and establishing the overall framework of the club as soon as possible.
When they talked to Deputy Director Cai and the bigwigs of the Football Association about these difficulties, they were also sighing and helpless.
Since Gao Han didn't sleep all night last night and had to take the early flight tomorrow morning, he chatted with Deputy Director Cai and others for a while and then sent them away, Gao Han chatted with Lin Xia and Xiao Gaoshen, who were far away in Beijing for a while, and did not fall asleep until after nine o'clock.
This sleep was slept until the next morning. The alarm clock of the mobile phone rang, and Gao Han woke up in shock.
After washing, I had breakfast and rushed to the airport immediately.
After he returned to Beijing, he came to the airport to pick him up Xiang Tianming.
