The national football team defeated the visiting Singapore team 4:1 at home in Tianjin, laying a solid foundation for qualifying from the group.
It's been a long time since Chinese football has won, and it's been a long time since I've seen so many fans and reporters in attendance. On this night, the red flag of Tianjin Water Drop Football Stadium was spreading, and the singing was loud, becoming a sea of joy!
After the game, the national football players, led by head coach Ivankovic and captain Wu Lei, walked to the stands to express their gratitude to more than 40,000 fans from all over the country and accept cheers and applause from fans.
Wu Lei, the scorer, Fernando, the naturalized player who scored the first goal of the national team, Wang Dalei, who returned to the position of the main goalkeeper, and Wei Shihao, who scored on the bench, became heroes in the hearts of the fans, and all the players who played the game also enjoyed the cheers from the fans, and everyone's faces were filled with long-lost heartfelt laughter!
Except for one person!
Behind the celebratory crowd, in the most inconspicuous corner, there was a lonely figure! He silently followed behind the large army, with no expression on his face, and could not see his true inner thoughts.
This person has also been in charge of the defense for the national team, and has also turned the tide for the national team, and has also received applause and praise from countless fans!
However, in the last game, due to a mistake, he was pushed to the forefront, and in this game, he did not play!
I never doubted his professionalism and fighting spirit, he was just older, not so fast, not so fast, slow in action, slow in judgment, so, mistakes appeared......
Even if he retires from the national team, we still admit that he was the best defender of the national football team in the past ten years!
