Green Field Eunuch

Chapter 541 We've qualified!

The match between China and Oman has ended, with China winning 6-0 at home.

This result, however, left many media outlets quite calm.

After all, the Chinese team's performance in the first three matches was already strong enough, and their resounding victory over Oman, the weakest opponent in the group, was hardly surprising.

Defeating an opponent is a joyful thing, but the Chinese national football team doesn't have much time to rest. Three days later, the whole team embarked on an away trip, flying to Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan, where the Chinese team will challenge their next opponent, the Japanese team.

After arriving in Yokohama that afternoon, the Chinese national football team checked directly into the hotel. They can train for one day the next day, and the match will start the day after tomorrow.

Evenings are free time.

Yokohama is located in western Tokyo Bay and is Japan's third largest city after Tokyo and Osaka.

It is larger than Manchester and has a much larger population.

Although not as large as Tokyo, it is still a major international metropolis.

However, Shan Yongzhuo had no intention of going out for a stroll. His girlfriend was in Tokyo and said on the phone that she was too busy to come watch his match.

This hurt Shan Yongzhuo quite a bit, and he even doubted whether his charm was working on Valentina.

But when he walked the streets of Yokohama with his teammates, he realized that the charm was still there.

"Single, you are single!"

He was recognized almost immediately, and then a large number of passersby rushed over to watch, with a large group of female fans swarming around him without any restraint.

"Hurry back to the hotel!"

Helpless, Shan Yongzhu shouted to his teammates, and the three of them finally broke through the encirclement.

Their departure went relatively smoothly, but Shan Yongzhuo had a rough time. The Japanese women were indeed a bit crazy; many of them rushed towards him, almost clinging to him. When he returned to the hotel, Shan Yongzhuo found that his clothes were all wrinkled.

"Damn it, they're so shameless..."

"But I have a girlfriend!"

Dan Yongzhuo felt somewhat displeased, but there was a hint of secret satisfaction mixed in with his displeasure.

This, in a way, proves her charm!
However, dissatisfaction still occupied a larger part of the overall impression.

As a result, on the second night, at Yokohama International Stadium, Shan Yongzhuo displayed his extraordinary prowess.

The stadium, which can hold more than 7 people, was packed to capacity that day, and a significant number of them were Chinese fans.

After all, winning this match would mean directly qualifying for the World Cup finals.

A large number of Japanese female fans defected directly, wearing the newly released Granada No. 19 jersey for Shan Yongzhuo, and holding banners supporting Shan Yongzhuo, as well as large portraits of Shan Yongzhuo.

This scene left the Japanese commentator broadcasting the match quite helpless: "We can see that the Japanese fans gave Shan Yongzhuo a very warm welcome."

"Even though this is Japan's home ground, Shan Yongzhuo's influence is still terrifying!"

"However, the Japanese team will not give up the game. Today, the Japanese team will cause Shan Yongzhuo a lot of trouble..."

The commentator seemed to have great confidence in the Japanese team.

However, this confidence was completely shattered 35 minutes into the game.

In the 7th minute, Shan Yongzhuo took the lead with a corner kick, shooting straight through the goal guarded by Kawashima Eiji.

0 is better than 1!

The Chinese team took the lead in the away game.

The Japanese team was unwilling to accept defeat and launched a fierce attack on the Chinese team.

However, the ball came in a flash, like a tornado.

In the 13th minute, Shan Yongzhuo dropped back to receive the ball in the attacking third and once again pulled off a solo run, dribbling past three players before facing Kawashima Eiji one-on-one and scoring again into the Japanese goal.

0:2.

In the 35th minute, Shan Yongzhuo took advantage of a direct free kick and unleashed a brilliant curling shot, leaving Kawashima Eiji with no chance.

0-3. The situation is similar to that of the match against Oman.

Another 35 minutes passed, and Shan Yongzhuo easily completed his hat trick, which lowered the atmosphere in the arena to a freezing point.

Although the Chinese fans and the defecting Japanese female fans who came to the scene were very excited to cheer for Shan Yongzhuo, the vast majority of the fans were still those who supported the Japanese team.

If Shan Yongzhuo is playing against another team, they might support him, but when the opponent is the Japanese team, they will still support their own country's team.

However, the current situation makes them feel somewhat desperate.

"Shan, you're really amazing!"

"Damn it, why does China have such a powerful figure?"

Why isn't he a Japanese player?

"We need to discover talent; we need to discover our own Shan Yongzhuo!"

"Damn it, why are we in the same group as the Chinese team? Damn, the Koreans are so lucky!"

"..."

Japanese fans were full of complaints, but they didn't complain about the Japanese team. Most people also knew that it wasn't that the Japanese team was bad, but that their opponents had Gundam.

The 15-minute halftime break did not bring any turning point for the Japanese team.

In the 54th minute, Shan Yongzhuo was dribbling past his opponent in the penalty area when he was tackled by an enraged Maya Yoshida, resulting in a penalty kick and a red card.

Shan Yongzhuo took the free throw and made it.

0 is better than 4!

The Japanese team not only lost the game completely, but they will also face the situation of being one player short.

The situation has deteriorated to an extreme degree.

Finally, in the 67th minute, the Japanese team suffered another blow.

Shan Yongzhuo's header inside the penalty area broke through the Japanese team's goal once again.

0 is better than 5!

Shan Yongzhuo single-handedly put on a five-man show, leading Japan to another resounding victory on the road.

After the match, the Japanese public was deeply disappointed with the result.

After 5 rounds of matches, they only managed to get 7 points, which means they are very likely to lose their chance to directly qualify for the World Cup finals.

Meanwhile, domestic media outlets were celebrating wildly.

"We've qualified!"

CTV's official website uses this slogan.

Meanwhile, cities across the country were in a frenzy, with crowds of people celebrating everywhere.

With 15 points from five rounds of matches, the Chinese team has secured at least second place in their group, which means they have already qualified for the World Cup finals.

At this moment, the whole country was in an uproar.

For over 40 years, the entire nation has strived for this dream in the World Cup finals. After the great release in 2001 and the great disappointment in the finals, the Chinese national football team experienced a long period of decline, and it seemed that there was no glimmer of hope left.

Unexpectedly, the appearance of one person completely changed everything.

First, they won the 2011 Asian Cup, and now they have qualified for the World Cup finals three rounds in advance.

Everyone was actually mentally prepared.

When the Chinese team achieved four consecutive victories in the World Cup qualifiers with an invincible performance, everyone was ready to welcome this moment.

But when that moment actually arrived, many people were still incredibly excited.
