Compared with the Chinese men's football team on the first day of the New Year, the Chinese women's football team announces the good news on the third day of the New Year. In the semi-finals of the Women's Asian Cup, the Chinese women's football team fought tenaciously, and finally fell behind by 2 degrees, relying on the joint goals of Wu Chengshu and Wang Shanshan to pull the score to a 2-2 draw, and the penalty shootout relied on the two saves of goalkeeper Zhu Yu to eliminate the defending champion Japan women's football team 6-5 on aggregate, and miraculously flipped to advance to the final.
This is the second time that the Chinese women's football team has reached the final of the Asian Cup after 14 years, and it is also the end of the 4 consecutive defeats against the Japanese women's football team, and it will fully impact the team's first Asian Cup championship in 16 years.
The attitude and spirit of the Chinese women's football team not to give up has won the respect and appreciation of the national media and fans, which has made the Chinese men's football team, which has repeatedly disappointed, very ashamed. Reporter Xiao Zhao reported that many international footballers of the Chinese men's football team watched the live broadcast of the semi-final match of the women's asian cup and stayed up late to witness the Chinese women's football team overturning the Japanese women's football team and successfully advancing to the final.
After the 1-3 away loss to the Vietnamese men's football team, the national football round of 12 came to a temporary end, and the whole team arrived in Shanghai in the early morning of February 3, and was immediately transferred to the Suzhou Taihu Taimei Xiangguli Hotel station for quarantine. This hotel is a five-star level, the room rate is more than one thousand yuan per night, you need to spend the New Year in this hotel, and continue to close the training.
Compared with the 6 million yuan win prize in a single game of the Chinese men's top 12 matches, the Football Association did not set the Asian Cup winning prize for the Chinese women's football team, and the treatment was obviously very different, only the official prize money of the AFC. After the Chinese women's football team advances to the final, it can earn 500,000 US dollars (about 3.18 million yuan), and if it wins the championship next, it can also earn another 500,000 US dollars.
Due to the difference in commercial value, the treatment of Chinese women's football is far inferior to that of Chinese men's football, girls can get hundreds of thousands of yuan in annual salaries, and most players are still tens of thousands of yuan, so many media and fans call for the treatment of men's football and women's football.
After the Chinese women's football team reversed the Japanese women's football team, the night became the focus of national attention. Fortune 500 companies praised Chinese women's football late at night, writing: "Blow up our women's football girls!" You guys are so good"! In addition, the company also announced that it has arranged prize money, hoping that the Chinese women's football team will continue to work hard in the final on February 6.
