The Chinese national team won the second round of the first group of the top 20 Asian qualifiers for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa 4:0 and ranked first with a goal difference.
This has never happened in the history of Chinese football. happened Of course, the exception was the 2002 South Korea-Japan World Cup qualifiers.
Because the first group of the top 20 Asian teams in the 2010 South Africa World Cup qualifiers, which is the group where the Chinese national team is located, is recognized as the group of death.
It was able to score six points in the first two rounds and ranked first with a goal difference advantage. , is a very rare result.
The whole country is excited about this rare achievement.
Even many people who usually don't pay much attention to football are gradually getting exposed to the world's number one sport and experiencing the style of China's number one star.
In fact, football is now the number one sport in China.
Those people who switched to basketball because the national football team was not strong have also changed their minds and started playing football again.
Especially those students born in the 1990s, all of them enjoy playing football.
It has brought many talented young players to the professional team.
Some talented young players were discovered by European scouts lurking in China and brought to Europe, the most advanced football soil in the world, for training.
Let’s digress and get back to the topic.
After the second round of the World Cup qualifiers, not only Aiello breathed a sigh of relief, but the xx Football Association and Mourinho also breathed a sigh of relief, because the third and fourth rounds faced back-to-back against the seeded team Australia.
The competition will have to wait until June.
By then the European leagues will have ended, and you can make trouble as much as you want.
So in addition to accepting interviews with domestic and foreign reporters at the regular press conference on the night of the game, Aiello took a flight to Hong Kong the next morning, and then took a direct flight from Hong Kong to London.
Because Chelsea's schedule is very intensive, and the league lead is not obvious enough.
There are still seven games to go before the end of the league, and they are only ahead by five points, which means there are big variables.
In addition, it can be easily seen from Chelsea's last home league match against Arsenal that the current Chelsea team has become the Valencia team that Aiello played for before, relying too much on him, which means that Aiello When Luo is not on the court, many players don't even know how to play football.
Therefore, Aiello has now become Chelsea’s spiritual support on the field.
It was noon on the 28th when Aiello returned to London, and training with the team was already on the 29th, less than a day before they played Middlesbrough away in the league.
For the sake of safety, Mourinho did not choose to take the risk of putting Aiello into the starting lineup after a long flight.
As a result, Chelsea performed very well on the road in this game.
Drogba, Joe Cole and Wright-Phillips all scored goals, so Aiello also sat on the sidelines for 90 minutes.
Ai Luo is reasonable.
The team is about to start a devilish schedule, and he has just returned from a long-distance flight.
It is normal for Mourinho to protect himself, because in key games, the team often needs himself to break the gap, and it is not worth facing.
A team like Middlesbrough takes the risk.
After thinking about the reason, Aiello felt relieved and prepared for the first leg of the 2007-2008 UEFA Champions League 14th final at the Mestalla Stadium three days later.
After the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, and Serie A ended at the weekend, media from various countries quickly focused their coverage on the upcoming first leg of the UEFA Champions League 14th final.
In fact, in the past two rounds of Valencia's league, Mourinho sent his assistant and intelligence specialist Villas-Boas to the frontcourt to watch Valencia's games live.
However, the current Valencia team is obviously holding back knowing that there is no hope of winning this season, and is focusing on the Copa del Rey and the Champions League 14 finals.
Therefore, Villas-Boas's close intelligence collection is quite Yu did useless work.
But having said that, it is not completely useless.
At least we know that among the current Valencia team, the three players that the offense relies on are David Villa, David Silva and Mata.
As long as Chelsea studies thoroughly The playing style of these three little guys is equivalent to being invincible.
No one knows the playing style of David Villa and David Silva better than Aiello, so he is very honored to become a spy.
In the previous Valencia, because Aiello played the role of a terminator, David Villa was more of a frontcourt fulcrum and not a part-time finisher.
However, with Aiello's departure and the advancement of other offensive players, With limited ball ability, David Villa now has the same unlimited firing rights as Aiello, followed by David Silva.
Of course, the emergence of Juan Mata this season has also attracted the attention of Chelsea's research team.
This time the team went to the Mestalla.
Even though Aiello was in charge, Mourinho still focused on defense and supplemented by counterattack for the sake of safety.
After all, it was an away game, so there was no harm in keeping a low profile.
The entire Chelsea squad arrived in Valencia on April Fool's Day.
It is worth mentioning that Valencia International Airport played a big joke on the Chelsea team on this day, because when they thought they were arriving in Valencia, they heard that the airline was heading to Los Angeles, the United States.

This can put Chelsea at risk.
Head coach Mourinho was horrified.
If he really flew to Los Angeles in the United States, it was still unknown whether he would be able to return to Valencia in time for the game.
Therefore, Mourinho made a complaint call as soon as possible, because it was clearly stated when boarding the plane.
Heading to Valencia, why did it turn into heading to Los Angeles now?
Soon, the airline told Mourinho it was just an April Fool's joke.
After learning this result, everyone in Chelsea breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that no one noticed that the April Fool's Day joke before the first leg of this crucial Champions League 14th final indirectly reduced the team's pressure.
On the first match day of the first leg of the UEFA Champions League 14 finals, in addition to reporting anecdotes about the team that was frightened on April Fools' Day, mainstream European media mainly reported on the two upcoming games.
The most popular report in Spain was the first leg of the Champions League 14th final between Valencia and Chelsea.
Because this game is the return of former Valencia top star Aiello to the Mestalla Stadium after a year.
This is undoubtedly a game worthy of attention for many La Liga fans who are used to watching Aiello play, but this game is a difficult decision for those die-hard Valencia fans.
Every Valencia fan is very aware of Aiello's contribution in the past two and a half years.
It is even said that Valencia's first Champions League trophy and first Triple Crown were achieved by Aiello's personal ability.
It is not an exaggeration, so Valencia fans already regard Aiello as the greatest player in Valencia history.
So Aiello's return to the Mestalla Stadium this time as an enemy will make them feel extremely entangled.
When you see Aiello on the court, should you boo or applaud?
Valencia fans don’t know and are still struggling.
However, Aiello quickly got into the role when he arrived in Valencia to be interviewed by the media that day: "Valencia is the past tense, and I am now a member of Chelsea, so I will try my best to win for Chelsea.
At the same time, it also proves in front of Valencia that the products produced by Valencia must be high-quality.”
After finishing speaking, Aiello also made a cheering gesture, indicating that he should cheer for the Champions League 14 finals at the Mestalla Stadium tomorrow night.
Of course, in the interview, Aiello also firmly expressed that if he scores a goal at the Mestalla Stadium, he will definitely not celebrate.
Because this venue is the witness of Ai Luo, from an unknown player to a super star that everyone is looking forward to.
Besides, this is also a time to test a player's quality.
For example, Tevez later had a conflict with head coach Ferguson after Manchester United started.
He continued to celebrate after scoring a goal as an opponent of Manchester United.
This will undoubtedly cause unnecessary criticism and have a great impact on the player's personal image.
Just like Beckham, even though he left Manchester United to join Real Madrid due to conflicts with Ferguson, Beckham did not stop celebrating after scoring a goal against Manchester United.
In addition, Aiello joined Chelsea from Valencia at an upright price, so he should naturally respect Valencia more.
Scoring goals is just to prove that you are a part of the once excellent Valencia, nothing more.
"I believe that the 2007-2008 UEFA Champions League 14th final at the Mestalla Stadium tonight will be very exciting, because the former Valencia star Ai has shown that he will try his best in tonight's game, so that It proves that the products produced by Valencia must be excellent.
Of course, in an interview, he also said that if he scored a goal, he would definitely not celebrate.
In other words, he knew how to respect the club he had played for.
After all, Valencia was a nobody he had ever played for.
A team that grows into a world superstar should be like this.”
Aspen headlines.
"Although the former Valencia star and current Chelsea player Ai expressed that he will do his best in this game at the Mestalla Stadium, there is still a question mark on the final performance, because we know the bottom line, and today's Valencia team Most of the main players who won the UEFA Champions League last season are still retained, especially the entire defense.
They know Ai's characteristics quite well, so it is very difficult for Ai to score in this stadium. things" Marca put it succinctly.
Real Madrid once again failed in the 18th final of this season's UEFA Champions League.
Therefore, the two major newspaper giants in the capital, Marca and AS, can fully and fairly report, so their opinions on Aiello are also different. , but it is undeniable that it has attracted enough attention.
Although at this time, most of the media in Europe focused on Aiello's personal performance, the local media in Valencia reported only one piece of news, that is: Welcome home:
