As time goes by, the day of the 18th final of the 2014 Brazil World Cup between the Chinese team and Algeria comes.
On the day of the game, countless enthusiastic fans came to the hotel where the Chinese team stayed early.
They used their passion to tell the Chinese men's football team that they are the strong backing of the national team, no matter whether they win or lose.
Although the soundproofing facilities of the hotel where the Chinese team is staying are good, the chants of Chinese fans are very powerful.
Whether you are having a meal or trying to feel good in the gym provided by the hotel, you can hear the hysterical chants of Chinese fans.
Of course, that doesn't happen while the players are resting.
Closer to home, most of the fans who arrived at the hotel in advance did not buy tickets, because they could only cheer for the Chinese team in this way.
It is worth mentioning that this 18th final can be said to be half of the Chinese team's home court.
The economy of Algeria, which is located in North Africa, is not very developed, so not many fans can go to Brazil to watch the game, while China's economy is not very developed.
With the continued rapid growth, there are a lot of fans who have the financial foundation to go to watch the game.
In addition, the largest number of people on the planet are Chinese.
Naturally, there are many Chinese fans who go to the Bellario Stadium in Porto Alegre to watch the game.
Eighty percent of the stands at Bellario Stadium, which can accommodate more than 50,000 fans, are occupied by Chinese fans.
The unified dark red jerseys and unified slogans are what the increasingly professional Chinese fans have left to the world. impression.
In addition, what is interesting is that the Algerian head coach fully expressed his weakness in the regular press conference before the game, and star Fegouli, who has played for Valencia, also agreed with the head coach's view.
They felt that the team could make history.
Entering the knockout round is already a miracle The experienced Guardiola and the experienced Chinese players will naturally not believe their remarks, because they have seen too many in major European top leagues and the Champions League.
The game was held at 6 o'clock in the evening on the 30th local time in Brazil.
The powerful Chinese team performed very well under the cheers of nearly 80% of the fans at the scene, frequently creating murderous opportunities, but no one expected that it was Algeria's goalkeeper Mu.
Borsi turned out to be a god.
It would be reasonable to say that he made shocking saves once or twice, but he made god-level saves one after another to keep the goal.
Especially in the 12th minute of the game, Zhang Linpeng received a pass from Hao Junmin on the right and broke through to the bottom line, and then sent a beautiful cross without any interference.
Gao Lin, who was outflanking in the middle, was in front.
His active running attracted the attention of two Algerian defenders, but instead of jumping up hard, he suddenly missed the ball.
Aiello, who accelerated away from the back point, met the ball at the line of the small penalty area and dived towards the top.
Such a close header, and he is currently the most efficient football player in the world, so everyone thought that the goal would definitely be scored, but at this moment, goalkeeper Mbolshi reflexively fell to his body.
From the left side, he used one palm to block the ball upwards, strangely lifting the football over the crossbar.
Suddenly, a huge exclamation sounded in the sky above the entire Bellario Stadium.
Even Aiello, who completed the header, didn't react for a long time.
Algerian goalkeeper Mborsi performed extremely well and kept the goal in his crazy state.
Other Algerian players seemed to see the hope of the team's upset victory over the Chinese team from Mborhi, so they ran more actively.
They knew that the team as a whole was not as good as China, but they wisely chose to put in more physical effort. in exchange for local advantages.
With abundant physical fitness, the Algerian players became more and more courageous as they fought.
Even if they could not complete the defense with normal defensive actions, they would choose unconventional actions to complete the defense.
For a while, the Chinese team's offense gradually made mistakes under Algeria's fierce defense. become more.
It even formed a siege on the Chinese team.
The change of style surprised the football commentators and reporters.
You must know that this kind of situation has never been thought of in their developed brains.
When the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, the score on the field was still 0:0, without any change.
Throughout the first half, the ball possession ratio between the two sides was 53 to 47.
The Chinese team, which had always controlled the situation, was only slightly ahead.
Compared with the three games in the group stage, the Chinese team's ball possession rate dropped significantly, so the commentators in the on-site commentary box gave various analyzes during the fifteen minutes of halftime.
Sky TV commentator Andy Gray was extremely surprised by Algeria's performance.
He praised: "Their performance is really different.
If the jerseys could not distinguish the teams, we would have thought that the Chinese team was playing against another team.

The performance of the top teams, especially goalkeeper Mborsi, is completely world-class.
If his performance can continue, he will definitely gain a foothold in the mainstream European leagues, and even become the top three super goalkeepers in the world."
CCTV commentator Huang Jianxiang said slightly sourly: "Is it really Algeria that played us in the first half?
Are you sure it's not Germany or Brazil or Argentina who are wearing Algeria's green jersey?"
At the same time, most of the Chinese players who entered the locker room were obviously not in high spirits.
If the score at the end of the first half had not been 0:0, they would have thought that the Chinese team was lagging behind Algeria in the first half.
Guardiola has never been the kind of coach who is good at inciting the players' mental outlook, so he glanced at the players and secretly shook his head.
At this moment, captain Ai Luo suddenly took a step forward, clapped his hands, and jokingly said to Gao Lin, Zhang Xizhe, Hao Junmin and others who were unhappy: "Hey, why do you act like you're losing?"
" "I go, their luck" Gao Lin was about to blurt out, but Ai Luo reached out to stop him.
He smiled and said: "I know you are all discouraged by their luck, but don't forget that luck is only a small part of the game, and it cannot be eternal.
In other words, We didn’t score because we didn’t work hard enough.
As long as we continue, we will definitely score.
Remember how we beat Portugal?”
Through Ai Luo's deliberate guidance, the brows of those unhappy players gradually relaxed.
Because what Ai Luo said is very correct.
Luck is only a small part of the game and cannot exist forever.
As long as you work harder in the next game, you will definitely be the one to win.
Plus, your strength is already dominant, so why worry about it?
Portugal, which was considered powerful, was defeated miserably at our feet:
