#My World Cup Memory# Last night, Saudi Arabia beat Argentina upset, and Saudi Arabia performed the best from the 3 West Asian teams that have played, not living up to the performance of Asian strong teams~
Speaking of the Saudi team, there is still an "inextricable" relationship with the Chinese men's football team in history~
Back 40 years, the results of the "weird" match between Saudi Arabia and New Zealand in the 12th World Cup Asian Zone Qualifiers are still unforgettable, the 2 places in Asia were Kuwait at that time had won a vote, the Chinese team was followed by the end of the game, and the remaining Saudi Arabia played a match against New Zealand, unless New Zealand won Saudi Arabia and must have a goal difference of more than 5 goals to qualify second, at that time the upper management of the football association considered this possibility to be zero (unless Saudi Arabia released water), so the national team actually let the men's football team take a leave in a state where the result was not completely clear. Said to rest well to prepare for the World Cup, it seems that one leg has stepped into Madrid~
However... Ultimately... Saudi Arabia's 0:5 defeat means that New Zealand has exactly the same points and goal difference as our team to have a fixed place for a playoff, which made the Football Association panic, on the one hand, complained to the AFC that the match was "fake" and asked for investigation (no result), on the other hand, urgently "scattered" to the training of furloughed players around the country to cope with the playoffs with New Zealand~
Outcome... Outcome... The national football team lost 1:2, making "entering Madrid" a dream, which is the closest almost zero-distance contact between the Chinese men's football team and the World Cup, and the strongest national team with the flickering lineup of men's stars, is it buried in the hands of "Saudi Arabia releasing water" or "ignorant bureaucrats"? Post-game reflection is meaningless, it can only be a faint 2 words ~ It's a pity!
The "black 3 minutes" that occurred in the following years pulled back Chinese football, which had almost 2 legs into the door of the World Cup, and went further and further ⚽️ away from the World Cup...
In the end, the men's football team changed from a warrior in the eyes of the Chinese people in the 80s to a material that anyone can make fun of before and after tea today, which is a pity...!!
