China's women's football team against the trend to defeat the former world champion Japan, into the Final of the Asian Cup, this heart-wrenching victory, no matter when it appears, will become a classic in the history of international women's football, but it happened that the Chinese men's football team just defeated the Japanese men's football team, the Vietnamese men's football team, completely lost the qualification for the World Preliminary Tournament in the same time and space, and coincided with the Spring Festival holiday, when the whole country caused by the men's football team caused by the tragedy "New Year's Blockage" dozens of hours later, the women's football team sent a sad and joyful gift to the fans across the country. Its value goes far beyond the level of competition and rises to the height of "political correctness". It is foreseeable that although the local Winter Olympics, which have already unveiled the curtain, will inevitably give birth to a colorful movement in which Chinese ice and snow athletes raise the national flag and play the national anthem to win glory for the country, however, the number one "national hero" in the Chinese sports arena and even the entire Chinese public opinion field on this winter and spring is definitely Shui Qingxia and her indomitable disciples.
(Women's football team eliminated Japan 6-5 to advance to the final of the Asian Cup)
This is the charm of the world's first movement. The record of the Chinese men's football team is not impressive, the Chinese women's football team played a highlight battle, but it is only the first time in 14 years to enter the Final of the Asian Cup, once a world-class team, they have now fallen to the international ranking of about 20, but this still can not change the supremacy of football in the Chinese sports world - how many people last night spared no effort to cheer for the women's football girls at the same time, denounced CCTV's refusal to squeeze out two hours of live broadcast of the women's football match against Japan from the Winter Olympic program period, They can only pay to watch this "snow shame battle" on their mobile phones and computers, which is far more attractive than any Winter Olympic scene. It is not easy for Chinese fans, and women's football has become the last spiritual totem to support them to reflect their sense of existence through football, the only remaining platform of shared values in the world today.
(Professionalism + Spirit = Victory)
Going back to the game itself, while the word "spirit" overwhelms all the other keywords, if you step out of the emotional first reaction, it must be admitted that this is still a professional victory. The Chinese women's football team wins in a tougher fighting spirit than the opponent, a stronger desire to win, a more adequate preparation before the game, a more effective execution in the game, a more stable mentality at the moment of life and death, especially Shui Qingxia's highly targeted tactical design and on-the-spot response ability. The Japanese women's football team thinks that the strength of the Chinese women's football team that lacks the main player Wang Shuang is obviously superior, lacks the psychological expectation of fighting hard battles and vicious battles, and is impatient when encountering tenacious resistance beyond imagination in actual combat, and is dragged into a penalty shootout after being completely angry, and the loss can be described as unexpected.

It is worth thinking about what the victory of the women's football team will bring to chinese football that is in a historical trough after the carnival. If you just let the contentious women's football team give the indisputable men's football team a mirror, and limit the perspective of reflection to the men's football team should learn from this women's football team - note that it is "this", jia Xiuquan's "that" women's football team has become a typical embarrassing situation of the reverse of Chinese sports because of its scandal at the Tokyo Summer Olympics, and it has only been more than half a year, and people are not so forgetful. Can the right manager be able to transform a team? According to this logical reasoning, is the deep reason why the men's football team is difficult to solve is because a manager has not been selected?
The most worrying thing is that women's football, like men's football, is under the leadership of the Chinese Football Association and a higher sports management body than the Football Association, and the humiliating defeat of men's football has led to criticism from the decision-making level and management of Chinese football. Will the unprecedented wave of public opinion pressure and reflection on Chinese football triggered by the fiasco of men's football and the bursting of the gold dollar bubble be once again dissolved by the fig leaf of women's football into a cloud of thunder and rain? There is a scene that I am afraid of when I think about it: the women's football team defeated South Korea two days later to win the Asian Cup, and when they returned home, the leaders flocked to welcome the celebration and award, the spirit of "sonorous roses" was once again written into the document, and the Chinese football world was a peaceful scene...
(It's good to be able to stick to this life)
Fundamentally speaking, the crux of the backwardness of men's football is that they are kidnapped by various interest groups in the special system, national conditions and cultural background, so that they are deeper and deeper into the quagmire of violating the laws of football survival and development; women's football is relatively simple, because of their marginalized position in the field of football, they do not have so many interest attributes attached to them - even so, Shui Qingxia's appointment has to be realized through abnormal channels. Obviously, the "question of the century" of "where is Chinese football going" can only be hoped to solve the problem by the gradual transformation from "fake occupation" to "real profession". This must be a difficult, long and tortuous process. At present, the spirit of this women's football team on the basis of professionalism can not give too much praise, but don't give the mission of saving Chinese football to these girls who are not deeply involved in the world, they can't afford it.
