"Mom, look, I've seen Dad."

"Mom, why don't we go to Brazil to cheer for dad?"

"Because Dad wants to play football, if we go to Brazil, he will be distracted."

"We can sit on the court and watch him play football."

"Brazil is too messy and unsafe. I watch football with my grandma at home, and my grandma will make delicious food for you."

...

In front of the TV, Dong Qiudi, who was already 4 years old, seemed very excited to see Dong Fangzhuo appear in front of the camera. His 3-year-old sister Dong Qing beside him was obediently holding a football ball and staring at his father intently.

"Mom, does Dad have anorexia? Why does he just eat boiled chicken every time he eats? I think it's so unpalatable."

"Because my father is a professional football player, he can't eat a lot of delicious food."

"Then do I have to do this too? I will become a football player like my father in the future."

"You are different. You are still growing up. When you grow up, you can eat like your father. However, you have to train as hard as your father."

"Oh, I get it."

Dong Qiudi was very obedient, and his tender voice was full of curiosity about Dong Fangzhuo. As he grew older, he wanted to know his father more and more.

The younger sister Dong Qing on the side also asked, "Mom, can I play football like my brother?"

This time the queen of nine balls was speechless. The girl went to play football? This...

"You should learn to play billiards with your mom."

"I don't want it, I don't want it. I want to play football with my brother."

“…”

In the camera, Dong Fangzhuo is being interviewed by Chinese media reporters.

"What do you think about the first battle against Côte d'Ivoire?"

"We will play whatever we want Clauchen to play. Côte d'Ivoire is a strong team, an African strong team, we must win them in the first game."

"If the draw is tied, you must win the second game against Greece. If the third game against Colombia, it should be very troublesome, right?"

"If you just play with a slant mentality, the result will definitely be very bad. But I suggest that for these professional questions, you should still interview Clauchen."

"This is your third World Cup. Do you think you can bring back a Hercules Cup for the Chinese team in your national team's career?"

For the exaggerated and unrealistic issue, Dong Fangzhuo rolled his eyes, "It is even more inappropriate to discuss this issue. The game must be played one by one. We will only know where we can go after the last game. I think your media should be more objective and rigorous when doing news. Don't try to create some sensational news to put pressure on the national team."

"No one doesn't want to achieve good results, but once you put pressure on everyone, it may not be so easy to play."

In fact, it is really difficult to fight against Côte d'Ivoire in the first game.

The Ivory Coast has risen strongly in recent years and has become a powerful force in African football. Under the leadership of European superstars such as Drogba and Toure Brothers, Ivory Coast has entered the World Cup finals for the third time in a row and the third time in history.

The Ivory Coast started from the second round of the World Cup in Africa. The second round was a group match system. Only the first in the group could advance in 10 groups. Ivory Coast advanced 4 wins, 2 draws and unbeaten in Group C, leading Morocco in the same group by 5 points. In the third round of the home and away game against Senegal, Ivory Coast won 3-1 at home and 1-1 away game, successfully advancing to the 2014 Brazil World Cup final circle.

Half of the black and hard in the team are stars. Although Drogba is old, there is no problem in beating ordinary teams' defense. In addition, there are stars such as Toure and Kalu who are in the midfield, so the Chinese team may not be able to beat them.

Although Côte d'Ivoire's ranking is not high, its strength is certain.

However, according to the latest news from Chilean media "Football Media", Côte d'Ivoire's midfielder Yaya Toure has not healed due to a thigh injury. It is basically certain that he will be absent from the first group match against the Chinese team, which is very good news for the Chinese team.

Ivory Coast coach Lamuci also said: "We will do everything we can to help Yaya Toure reach the level of playing games, but he has not practiced with the whole team until now, and I will wait for his return until the final."

I don’t know if it was a smoke bomb. Anyway, before the game started, each team was basically telling lies and putting smoke bombs.

Clauchen is also playing, Feng Renliang is his smoke bomb. Feng Renliang, who played in this year's Champions League final, has been strained and has not participated in the team's joint training so far. Clauchen said in front of the media that Feng Renliang will definitely miss the first game against Côte d'Ivoire, but in fact, Clauchen always conducts closed training, and Feng Renliang doesn't know how many times he has practiced with the team.

For the "golden generation" of Côte d'Ivoire such as Drogba and Yaya Toure, this event is their last chance to rewrite history. Côte d'Ivoire's central axis is not small but it is seriously aging. Defensive backbones Côte d'Order and Zockora are both 33 years old, Manchester City's midfield core Yaya Toure is 31 years old, and Drogba on the front line is 36 years old. However, their experience and physical advantages are very obvious in front of the Chinese team. In the midfield and frontcourt, the performance of Drogba and Yaya Toure will play a decisive role in the performance of the whole team.

But in terms of paper strength, the Chinese team is not weaker than Côte d'Ivoire. Dong Fangzhuo, Feng Renliang, Zheng Zhi, Hao Junmin, Zhao Xuri, Huang Bowen, Zhu Ting, Feng Xiaoting, and Zhang Linpeng are the main players in the five major European leagues, but their health is a bit poor...

Asian Champions vs African Champions.

China has also become the first Asian team to debut in the Brazil World Cup. The Chinese team will face the African champion Côte d'Ivoire in the small town of Recife in northeastern Brazil.

This game is a key battle directly related to the promotion quota for the two teams. The Chinese team arranged to arrive at the competition day before the game, but Chinese fans had already arrived before the team. In addition to Brazilian fans on the streets of Recife, the most Chinese fans wearing red uniforms were Chinese fans.

In Recife, there are many fans gathered in the fan square near the beach, and among them, Chinese fans are also wearing red uniforms scattered in the middle of the yellow Brazilian uniforms. From Rio to Recife, there are nearly 10,000 Chinese fans, most of them will go to the court to cheer for the team on the 14th. During the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Chinese fans strongly occupied South Africa, and now Chinese fans are rampant in Brazil.

The match between the Chinese team and Côte d'Ivoire was held at 22:00 local time, which is almost the latest game between the Brazilian World Cup. The reason for this arrangement is to take care of the viewing time of Chinese fans. The time difference between China and Brazil is exactly 12 hours, and it was exactly 10:00 in the morning of China. The day of the game was Saturday, and Chinese fans could enjoy the team's first World Cup game on the weekend morning.

Unlike Chinese fans who occupied Recife early, the Chinese national team was a little calm. According to the plan, the team would arrive in Recife from the camp in Brazil the afternoon before the game. After getting off the plane, the team would go directly to the game venue for training to adapt to the venue. This means that before the Chinese team faced the Ivory Coast, they would only have one training game at the game venue.

In the Chinese restaurant in Recife, there are many Chinese fans eating Chinese food. Most of them are full of confidence that the Chinese team can defeat the Ivory Coast. Some people even believe that this game will determine the trend of the Chinese team in this World Cup. "The two teams must fight for qualifying. Whoever wins will have a high chance of qualifying. Of course, the Chinese team will definitely win!" The young man in Chinese uniform expressed the voice of most Chinese fans.

※※※※

With unprecedented ambitions, the Chinese men's football team came to Recife. Then Clauchen held a pre-match press conference.

Clauchen said with a relaxed expression on the scene: "Since I have come here from thousands of miles away, I naturally want to achieve good results. I can guarantee that the team will continue to grow, but success sometimes requires luck."

growing up?

After winning third place in the last World Cup, how can the Chinese team grow? If they grow up again, they will reach the finals or even win the championship.

Crowchen's sharpness is hidden in a few simple words.

However, if it is not so obvious than Clauchen, Feng Xiaoting, who attended the press conference with him, suddenly made a high-profile appearance.

“I hope we can play seven games.”

"Why not?"

"Our Chinese team is also promising. I hope we can play with such ambitions."

Originally, the press conference was attended by Clauchen, Zheng Zhi and Dong Fangzhuo, but Zheng Zhi did not attend because he felt a little uncomfortable. Dong Fangzhuo had so many interviews every day, and he was too lazy to come, so Feng Xiaoting, as the third captain, got the opportunity instead.

However, his words immediately caused an uproar in the audience.

Clauchen didn't say it clearly, but Feng Xiaoting said it clearly. This is the most obvious thing. China is here to win the championship!

After the press conference, media from various countries seized on the words that had already transferred to Inter Milan before the World Cup.

Brazil's Global Times: The Chinese team is aiming at the championship? So, what should Brazilian fans do?... Buy tickets together and cheer for the Chinese team?

Argentina's "Ole": If so, is Messi going to buy some Pepsi and sit in front of the TV to watch the game?

Brazilian star Romario couldn't help but complain. When he was a guest at a Brazilian program, he joked: "I'll tell you a joke - Chinese players say that the Chinese team will play seven games! I said this is purely self-interest! I think China should think about qualifying first. Read the news that China's first game against Côte d'Ivoire is only 45.6%, and the probability of qualifying in Group C is only 56%! Why? Because this is playing in South America, not elsewhere. I admit that the Chinese team's performance in the last World Cup was quite good, third place, but this time it is exactly the same. South American team will dominate the game. Colombia in Group C will definitely win the first place, and I think it's Côte d'Ivoire. It's difficult for Greece and China to play here."

Another Brazilian star, Ronaldo, supported the Chinese team in an interview. "I have different views from Romario. I support the Chinese team because I know that Dong has any ability to decide the game. He can decide the game at any time, so I have already cast 100 bets on the lottery website yesterday to win the game. This is out of my confidence in China Dong. If you don't believe it, let's take a look. If you believe in the handicap given by Spinach Company, then you have no money to make."

The European Spinach Company's handicap for this game was a tie, which is quite surprising.

Do bookmakers think that the players in Côte d'Ivoire are better in fame and health?

Anyway, when this handicap comes out, domestic Chinese fans are buying the Chinese team crazy. No, over the years, as long as you buy the Chinese team, you will basically get rich, no matter whether you are Côte d'Ivoire, Brazil, or Argentina...

From this point of view, Ronaldo's taste is the same as that of Chinese fans.

Yan Qiang, a famous domestic football commentator, also commented on supporting the Chinese team: "Although the Chinese team dare not be said to be a world-class strong team, it is also a world-class strong team. One Dong Fangzhuo can crush the Ivory Coast's defense line. I wonder how can I do even the world-class strong team, Côte d'Ivoire, which can tie China?"

"The Africans who have always been disunited will definitely not be impossible to win in the face of the united Chinese team, but we must say no to the draw."

The famous CCTV commentator Huang Jianxiang directly supported Feng Xiaoting: "In the eyes of many people, Feng Xiaoting said a joke, and many international friends were laughing at Feng Renliang and the Chinese team for overestimating their abilities. But I want to say, what did Feng Renliang say wrong? We are here to fight for the Hercules Cup, and we have this strength! If we dare to say this, we act like this too!"

"Côte d'Ivoire? Greece? Colombia? After we qualify from this group, see who the opponent is?"

Another commentator Zhang Lu also stood up: "Why can't the Chinese team have dreams? Can the champion be a traditional strong team? Our results in 2010 can't explain what? What can't the Asian champions tell? If the Chinese team is divided into Group B, with the Netherlands, Spain, and Chile and then qualify, they probably won't say that. They should worry about whether their team can appear in the group stage, at least I believe that China has no problems."

When the Chinese team bus arrived outside the stadium, more than 300 reporters once again surrounded the Chinese team.

This time, Dong Fangzhuo did not escape from the devil's claws, so he simply took the initiative to take the microphone.

"Everyone has been hyping up the Chinese team these two days,"

"But I want to tell everyone."

"In fact, this is what our idea is. What is the difference between a person without dreams and a salted fish?"
