Chapter 1125 Miracle Night
The day after the national football team defeated Qatar with four goals, the national public opinion was completely boiling, the media reported crazy, and the whole nation was excited.
The authoritative party newspaper used [Miracle] as the cover title to report that the national football team made a strong counterattack and advanced to the top 12 games.
In the comments, they described the Chinese team's qualifying as an exciting Jedi counterattack, a magnificent redemption of life and death, a desperate battle, and a miracle that is exhausted even if you talk a lot.
"According to the ratings given by CCTV, this life-and-death battle last night was a national concern, with thousands of people emptying, setting a record for the highest ratings for football games since the 2002 World Cup, which is enough to confirm the national fanaticism about football and high expectations for the national team."
The comments analyzed the experience of the top 40 matches of this World Cup qualifiers. From the joy of drawing to the top draw to the haze of tied Hong Kong, China and Hong Kong, while morale is constantly frustrating, the pressure given by public opinion is also increasing day by day. The national team has been carrying an unbearable weight and the players' mentality has been tragically distorted.
"Mentality issues have always been the number one stubborn disease of the national team. In every key battle, mentality always restricts the performance of the national team, which leads to us falling out at critical moments, leaving behind extremely bitter memories, and even becoming a black joke for netizens to tease the national team."
"But this time, the internationals were united and did not disappoint all of us anymore. In the last two games, they not only defeated their opponents, but also defeated the pressure, especially in this key battle in Qatar. We can see that from the beginning, the whole team entered the fast-paced lane of active pressing and oppression, and scored three goals in a row within 20 minutes to lock in the victory."
The Party newspaper attributed the change in the national team's mentality to Gao Han's coaching.
"After being held in the defeated army and being ordered to be in danger, when all the head coaches retreated from the national team, Gao Han bet on honor and disgrace for his life and took over the national team's coach. We still remember that at the first press conference of his first national team, he said loudly that he would bring progress to the national team and he would never give up easily."
"Facts have proved that Gao Han is worthy of his identity as the head coach of the national team. He directed the most epic miracle in the history of Chinese football with two exciting victories. He allowed us to see gratifying changes. He made us begin to believe that Chinese football can also do it."
"The building is about to collapse and turn the tide after it collapses. Gao Han used living examples to practice these two sentences."
"The last two games against Maldives and Qatar, both the results and the process have made people see very happy changes. Gao Han firmly adopts technical players and insists on using more advanced tactical concepts to guide the national team. He conquered everyone in a very short time. He made us begin to believe that what other countries can do, China can do, and even do better."
In the second half of the comments, the party newspaper also thanked the fans who had been waiting for many years, saying that it was precisely because of the loyal waiting of hundreds of millions of fans that Chinese football always maintained hope. On Miracle Night in Xi'an, more than 40,000 fans sang the national anthem in the whole audience, which became the most perfect footnote for the national team to advance to the top 12.
"According to the top 12 has brought our desperate hearts back to life, allowing us to see hope and dawn again, but the words of head coach Gao Han and captain Zheng Zhi in an interview with the media after the game are also worthy of our deep thought."
"The ground is frozen for three feet, not a day. Chinese football has fallen to its current situation, not a person's responsibility. We should look at the gap calmly and rationally. We should understand and respect the laws of football."
"Gao Han is a great head coach. No one should doubt his love for Chinese football, nor should he doubt his coaching ability, but we must accept the gap and we must be able to understand the current situation of Chinese football."
"He chose to advance to the top 12 at the national team, saying such words that others would not dare to say are the most proof of his feelings for Chinese football, and it also makes us clearly see that advancing to the top 12 is just the first step in the long march of revitalizing Chinese football."
"We sincerely hope that no matter how the national team's performance is, whether it will succeed in the World Cup, every fan will never leave you, because you are the most flashing star in the night sky, illuminating the national team's progress."
...
While the authoritative party magazine reported on the front page that Chinese football advanced to the top 12, the Chinese News Agency also released a special message, saying that the promotion of the national team changed history, and we hope that China will become a football power as soon as possible.
In the report, the reporter believed that Gao Han's rise to the forefront changed the trajectory of the national team's decline and prevented the national football team from repeating yesterday's story. After missing the final stage of the Asian qualifiers for three consecutive World Cup cycles, the national football team finally changed history.
But unlike other media's extensive coverage of how intense the game process and how fans are excited, the Chinese News spent a lot of space in the report focusing on Gao Han's answers at the post-match press conference and the remarks of the national team captain Zheng Zhi in an interview with the media after the game.
The Chinese News Agency believes that Gao Han only told some truths that have been tacitly understood by professionals, but no one dared to publicly tell them, and called on the Football Association, all walks of life and fans to give Gao Han more patience and expectations.
"The national football team has been in a state of trouble for a long time and has a deep root. It is not a matter of one day or one night. Gao Han's two games after taking office have given us hope, but we also see the gap between the national football team and the Asian team, not to mention the world's strong team."
"We don't be emperors wearing new clothes. Chinese football has been looking for the root of the disease until now. Gao Han's words prove that he is a very clever doctor. He has seen the disease and is also trying to prescribe the right medicine."
"There is a very true saying: illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread. We cannot ask Gao Han to cure the Chinese national football team, which has been suffering from illness for many years, in a short period of time. But we can fully expect that under Gao Han's coach, the national football team will be revitalized and rise to the world's strong team."
...
In addition to the party magazine and the Chinese News Agency, many well-known domestic media have also reported and paid attention to the promotion of the national football team to the top 12 games.
Overnight, the whole country fell into a carnival.
Some media commented that from the top 40 to the top 12, this is just a small step in Asian football, but for Chinese football, it is a historic step since 2002.
What is most praised is that after Gao Han coached the team, in the remaining two games, whether in the scene, process, or the final result, they all saw an unprecedented and brand new Chinese national team.
A piece of data was also talked about by all media reporters, that is, in two games, the first game of the Maldives is needless to say, China is a completely overwhelming advantage, and in the second game of Qatar, the national team's ball possession rate reached 63%, which is an extremely amazing number.
In terms of running distance, the team's running distance in the two games was 15 kilometers and 17 kilometers more than the opponents respectively, which was seen as the key to the national team's strong victory over the opponent.
However, many media reports and comments on Gao Han and Zheng Zhi, warning that advancing to the top 12 is worth a carnival, but everyone must have a clear understanding and must be calm and rational.

…………
At noon on March 30, Beijing Capital Airport.
From the morning, more and more fans gathered in the airport. They waited neatly and orderly in the airport, waiting for the rumored Gao Han to appear.
When the airport broadcast came and flew from Xi'an to Beijing to arrive at the Capital Airport on time, there was a burst of cheers at the scene.
All the fans who came to pick up the plane went to the pickup gate, and soon gathered a large number of more than a thousand fans, which really scared the airport ground crew. I wonder which superstar was coming.
The first university heard that it was Gao Han, and with the large number of people on site, the airport immediately made arrangements to maintain order on site.
Sure enough, not long after, Gao Han walked out of the pick-up port.
After the game against Qatar, the national team was disbanded overnight that night, and many international players even flew back to the club overnight to report. Gao Han's farewell gift to each of them was a summary report on the battle between China and Kazakhstan.
After walking out of the airport, before Gao Han could come back to his senses, the fans who were calling his name crazy on the scene were startled.
It’s not that he has enjoyed the treatment of picking up the airport, but he never thought that so many people would come and such a big battle.
"Hello, everyone."
Gao Han walked towards the fans under the escort of the airport security personnel. He shook hands and signed autographs for all the fans who picked up the plane, but there was no way to take a photo.
"Thank you everyone for your support to the national team. I and the players will continue to work hard, and I hope everyone can continue to support us."
The sound of the scene was surging, and Gao Han had to shout loudly.
The fans treat him like this, which is his love for him and his responsibility.
As the head coach of the national team, he cannot indulge in this. He must always keep his mission in mind and stay awake.
The lessons learned from Perlan and others are the lessons that Gao Han must learn.
Gao Han had a good attitude, but the fans gathered more and more. In the end, even many domestic and foreign passengers who were originally going to take the plane gathered around him when they heard the news of Gao Han's arrival, which made him feel overwhelmed.
If this continues, he will not be able to sign even if he signs the autograph, let alone wait to go home for lunch.
As a last resort, the security guards at the airport escort themselves quickly to get rid of the fans' encirclement.
But in the end, Gao Han did not forget to express his gratitude to the fans from afar, and then walked out of the airport, got into Lin Xia's car, who had already parked outside the gate, and left directly.
"Do you think you are running away in panic?" Lin Xia giggled.
Gao Han was helpless about all this. He didn't expect that the media reporters and fans were so powerful that they could know that the flight he had booked temporarily was...
After all, I am a little careless and underestimated the enthusiasm of the fans.
This scene that happened at the Capital Airport was soon sent to the Internet by netizens, and quickly became the top hot search on Weibo, attracting strong attention from netizens across the country, and was even more fond of Gao Han's "escape in panic".
In just two or three hours when Gao Han went home to eat and rest, it turned out to be a grand event on the Internet, which caused heated discussions among netizens across the country. It really made Gao Han never imagined it.
However, even if he wants to get it, he will definitely not care too much.
Because in the afternoon of that day, he went to the Football Association headquarters to meet with senior executives of the Football Association.
After the battle between China and Card and advance to the top 12, Gao Han will get a rare holiday, but before the holiday, he needs to deal with many long-standing things.
Chapter completed!
