"Even if Chinese football is everyone's spittoon, it is also the Holy Grail in my heart."
This sentence comes from CCTV commentary, football poet He Wei
For people who don't understand Chinese football, it sounds ridiculous.
But for real Chinese fans, the embodiment of this passage is
In the sixth round of the 2016 World Cup preliminaries, the Changsha home commentator said that there is not much time left for the Korean team.
It was in the eighth round that I experienced falling behind, taking the lead, and then being defeated by the absolute defeat of Malacca.
It was the penalty kick that no one dared to take against Uzbek Gao Lin in the ninth round that withstood the pressure and kept the suspense until the last round.
This is the post-match interview with captain Zheng Zhi after the Dragons were eliminated 3-0 in the 19th Asian Cup.
It is the helplessness of the Dragons team in the top 12 Asian competition in the 2022 Qatar World Cup qualifiers, with one win, three draws and six losses.
The beginning of our story will start from the low point of Chinese football, after Leo Messi was crowned the king of the World Cup in Qatar.
"There is no shortage of geniuses in this green space. Hard work is the final ticket."
These are the last words spoken by Gao Huan, the historical top scorer of the Chinese national team, when he was interviewed by the media as the captain of the national football team before retiring in 2038.
Almost everyone attributed his achievements to talent, hard work, and inheriting the Cuju talent of Gao Huan's ancestor Gao Qiu and Gao Taiwei, who was reported by some unscrupulous media for attention.
But maybe the world will never understand why this golf king will first go to the opponent's fan area every time he scores a goal...
