Qatar world cup is another men's World Cup held in Asia after the 2002 Japan South Korea world cup.
At the same time, this world cup is also the first men's World Cup held in winter.
No way, because Qatar is a desert country. In June and July, it was so hot that the temperature often jumped to more than 40 degrees. It can really kill people.
Of course, Qatar is also a tyrant country.
They also wanted to build a covered indoor football field and install air conditioning on the football field to solve the problem that it was too hot to hold the world cup in June.
However, FIFA has considered it again and again and still thinks it is not appropriate.
Because the hot weather will also bring a lot of inconvenience to the fans who come to watch the ball.
The world cup is arranged in winter, which has a great impact on the Football League of European countries.
Because football leagues in European countries are basically held across the year.
In November, when the league is in full swing, will it be suspended for the world cup?
Moreover, in addition to the five major European leagues, there is another important league in Europe, and the Champions League has never stopped before the winter break.
In short, for this world cup, it was a mess.
But it's finally settled.
Before flying to Qatar, the Chinese men's football team held a grand oath meeting in Beijing.
The head coach of the national football team is still Hao Wei.
Because Hao Wei has made contributions!
It was he who led the Chinese National Olympic men's football team to win the gold medal of the Olympic men's football competition and created a history of China.
Since he made such a great achievement, he was chosen as the coach of the men's national team.
As I said before, the men's football teams of all countries participating in the Olympic Games are not the strongest lineup, but the youth army!
They are basically composed of players aged 23 and under.
This time, the Chinese men's football national team also sacrificed a complete lineup.
In addition to Wang Fei, Wu leiwu was also selected into the national team.
In addition, Huang Zichang and Zhang Yuning were also successfully selected.
After taking the oath, the Chinese men's football team flew to Qatar from the capital airport.
On the day of the national football team's departure, tens of thousands of fans and thousands of journalists came to see them off.
However, in order to avoid being disturbed, the national football team enters the airport through the green channel.
After a long flight, the plane arrived at Doha International Airport in Qatar on November 19.
Qatar is a small country in the Middle East.
On land, he is only adjacent to Saudi Arabia.
He has a long coastline of more than 500 kilometers.
The country covers an area of only more than 10000 square kilometers, and most of its land is covered by desert.
Water is more expensive than oil in this country.
Natural gas and oil are the backbone of the country's economy.
There is another famous media in Qatar, that is al Jazeera television.
It is also a small country that loves sports.
As early as 2006, Doha Asian Games was held in Doha, Qatar.
After the plane landed.
After completing the customs clearance procedures, Wang Fei walked out of the pick-up port with his teammates and entered the airport hall.
He thought that his national football team should not receive much attention.
After all, there are many strong players in the world cup and big stars everywhere.
The Chinese men's football team is not famous except for itself.
But when he walked out of the airport, Wang Fei saw that there were many reporters waiting in front of him.
As soon as Wang Fei appeared, the reporters began to take photos.
Behind the reporter, there were also a large number of fans cheering loudly, both men and women, with a total of at least hundreds.
Among them, there are some Arab women who wear headscarves and cover themselves tightly.
"Wang, can you talk about your views on this world cup? China can be said to be in a death group. Do you think you can break through successfully?" a reporter asked loudly.
Wang Fei knew that a reporter would ask.
China was divided with Britain, Croatia and Mexico in the World Cup group stage.
Britain is a traditional football power, and Croatia was the runner up in the last World Cup. Mexico is also a football power in North America.
The strength of this group is really not weak.
Wang Fei said with a smile: "This will be a very unique world cup. I think it will be very wonderful! Yes, you are right. Our group is not poor, Britain and Croatia are strong, and Mexico is also very strong. However, what I want to say is that we are also a strong team! We will not be afraid of any opponent! I believe we can break through successfully ! it won't be a problem to qualify from the group! "
"You are confident! But do you think you can beat Croatia? Your first opponent will be Croatia. They were runner up in the last World Cup!" another reporter shouted.
Wang Fei smiled and nodded: "Croatia is really strong. They have always played the role of dark horse. They have a large number of excellent players! Their captain Modric and I are good friends. You know, we are all Real Madrid players. I once told Modric that if we meet in the world cup, I will beat his team impolitely!"
Real Madrid midfielder Modric is a Croat.
This Modric is not good. He won the golden ball award and the world player of the year by beating Ronaldo and Messi.
He is known as the midfield engine of Real Madrid and Croatia.
He passes the ball accurately, his feet are exquisite, and the passing threat is very big.
Croatia won the second place in the last World Cup. It can be said that his contribution is very great.
However, the magic flute is old.
He is now 37 years old.
The players of the current Croatian national team are generally older.
This also means that Croatia has reached the time to need a major blood change.
"Wang, you promised that after playing in European football for two years, you would reconsider returning to the NBA. How are you thinking now?" a reporter from the New York Times suddenly asked.
This surprised Wang Fei a little.
It has been more than two years since I changed to playing football.
Is the NBA still obsessed with itself?
"I've thought about it, but I don't think it's the best time to return to the NBA," Wang Fei shrugged.
"But you promised that you would return to the Lakers in two years. The Lakers have been looking forward to your return. Can't you break your promise?" the New York reporter continued.
"No, that's not a promise, or you remember wrong." Wang Fei said with a smile.
To Wang Fei's surprise, the New York reporter obviously stabbed the horse honeycomb.
"Forget the NBA! Wang is now hot in world football. Why does he want to go back to the damn NBA?"
"We all like watching Wang play football! He has achieved great success on the football field. He will never return to the NBA again!"
"God! Wang is really hot. He has announced his withdrawal from the NBA tomorrow morning. Why is he still raising this topic?"
"Damn it! It's really inappropriate to mention the NBA when the football World Cup is about to be held!"
In short, many people made a lot of noise and made vicious attacks on the New York Times reporter.
Wang Fei shrugged.
He said that it seems that he has really been deeply rooted in the world football world.
My fans are worried about playing basketball again.
The New York reporter finally had to flee in a panic.
Because he felt that if he didn't go, he was likely to be personally attacked.
Wang Fei accepted reporters' questions in the airport hall. He signed several fans, and then he was able to walk out of the airport hall.
It's already late November.
In China, it's a little cold at this time.
However, Qatar is not too cold due to the marine monsoon climate.
The sun is very big in the sky.
It feels like the temperature is at least 267 degrees.
This makes Wang Fei, who is a little thick, a little hot.
"Wang Fei, let me help you carry your luggage." a tall flat headed boy came quickly, couldn't help but say, and took his suitcase from Wang Fei's hand.
The boy's name is Wu Shuyong. He is a substitute striker of the national team of the Chinese men's football team.
Wu Shuyong is a player of the capital football club. The young man is not old. He is just in his early 20s and is 1.87 meters tall. At present, he has a very eye-catching performance in the league, a great threat of header and a very delicate footwork.
A talented young player.
"Hard work." Wang Fei smiled and said to Wu Shuyong.
"It's not hard. I'm very happy to do something for my idol." Wu Shuyong said with a shy smile.
Got on the bus.
Nothing special happened along the way.
Doha is the capital of Qatar.
Located in the Persian Gulf.
It is a famous port city in the Persian Gulf.
The city also brings together more than half of Qatar's population.
Qatar has more than two million people in the whole country.
In this way, there are not many people in Doha, only more than one million.
In China, he is nothing at all.
After staying.
Chinese men's football is to adapt to familiar venues.
Doha, a West Asian city, has also become very lively.
The world cup is about to be held, and fans from all over the world begin to gather one after another.
Among them, Europe has the most fans.
After all, Europeans are famous for their enthusiasm for football.
Besides Europeans, the second largest number is Chinese.
This is the second time in the history of Chinese football to enter the stage of the world cup. Moreover, this world cup is led by Wang Fei, a superstar. It is obvious that he will not study with the crown prince like the last World Cup.
Therefore, Chinese people's enthusiasm for watching this world cup is quite high.
In the twinkling of an eye, on the evening of the 20th, because the opening game of the world cup was about to start, after dinner, the leader of the Chinese football team asked the players to go back to their room early to rest and keep up their spirit.
For the first opponent Croatia, the Chinese team also attaches great importance to it.
Wang Fei returned to his room and looked at the time. It was only more than 8 p.m. at this time. He went to bed at this time. He couldn't sleep anyway.
Wang Fei thought, why don't you play games for a while.
Playing games is a way for athletes to relax themselves.
However, as soon as he opened the game, he heard a strange noise outside the window.
Wang Fei was stunned. He turned to look and found a man clinging tightly to the window and looking into the room with his face on the glass.
