Winning awards do not exist in international competitions, after all, playing on behalf of the national team should have a high sense of honor, no need to mobilize, but also should go all out.
In the Asian qualifiers for the Qatar World Cup, the single win prize of the Chinese men's football team reached 6 million yuan. Based on previous media reports, such a single-game win award is rare for other national teams.
Even so, in the round of 12, the national football team only won one victory.
Today, the big dark horse, who is only 8 places higher than the national football team in the world ranking, can win one more game to advance to the final round of the World Cup in Qatar. Before the match, the Prime Minister publicly promised that if the team qualified for the World Cup, the reward for each player would not be less than 500,000 euros!
What is this concept? The national team's roster has reached 23 people, that is to say, the players alone may get a single win prize of more than 10 million euros, equivalent to more than 70 million yuan!
The next play-off, also a life-and-death battle, is their opponent ranked eighth in the world! Wouldn't there be a miracle?
No, they are creating miracles one after another, this team is the big dark horse North Macedonia, the national population is only 2.08 million, and it is the prime minister of North Macedonia who has made a heavy award promise!
Looking at the north Macedonian squad, only 3 people play in the five major leagues, and they are not important members of the team. Last year's European Championship, the first time in The history of North Macedonia, has made history.
You should know that five years ago, in the FIFA world rankings, North Macedonia only ranked 166th, far behind the Chinese men's football team. In the World Rankings in May 2018, the Chinese men's football team ranked 73rd, still ahead of North Macedonia in 77th places.
This is also in line with the historical confrontation between the two teams, the Chinese men's football team has played against North Macedonia 5 times, 3 wins and 2 draws to remain unbeaten!
Now, the hard-working North Macedonia has beaten Germany 2-1 away to Germany in the group stage of the World Cup European Qualifiers in Qatar, breaking out super cold.
In the first round of the play-offs, north Macedonia scored in the 92nd minute after being shot 28 times by its opponents. 1-0, North Macedonia sends italians home.
Two consecutive former World Cup-winning teams were eliminated, followed by Portugal, led by Cristiano Ronaldo.
Facing the eighth place in the world, facing a winning prize of more than 10 million euros, can North Macedonia rewrite history again?
