"...In a FA Cup quarter-final this afternoon, after 90 minutes of hard work, our province's Flash Star team finally defeated Haihe Shuanggang from the Chinese Super League 2:0 at home, breaking out a small
A small upset..."
"...Before the game started, most media were not optimistic about the Shining Star team playing at home. But after the game started, it was the Shining Star team that scored first! The team's top scorer Hu Lai took the lead for the team in the 33rd minute.
, after he received an assist from Zhang Qinghuan, he fired a clean shot near the penalty spot and blasted away the Haihe Shuanggang goal... After taking the lead, Shining Star's morale was high. They scored another goal six minutes later, this time.
It was Hu Lai who assisted Qin Lin, and Qin Lin scored with a long shot from outside the penalty area... Although Haihe Shuanggang tried to counterattack in the second half, the entire Shining Star team was united and withstood the fierce attack of Haihe Shuanggang in the remaining game.
The score of 2:0 was maintained throughout the game! Eliminating the opponent in the FA Cup quarter-finals and advancing to the semi-finals!"
"... After the game, the Flash Star fans were still unwilling to disperse. They gathered outside the Provincial Sports Center outside the North Third Ring Road of our city, chanting slogans and cheering for the Flash Star soldiers. They served as the Flash Star team's bus
When the car drove out of the parking lot, it was warmly cheered by these fans. The following is the picture sent back by the camera crew from the front..."
In the news footage, the sky was full of sunset outside the Provincial Sports Center and the lanterns were starting to turn on.
At this time, almost an hour had passed since the end of the game, and there were still many Flash Star fans gathered at the exit outside the stadium.
They wore uniform clothes, waved flags and slogans in their hands, shouted slogans and sang in unison.
Apparently waiting for the team bus to come out.
And when the bus slowly pulled out, there was a huge cheer.
Amid the cheers, the camera captured the Shining Star players who had changed their clothes in the car, smiling and waving to thank the Shining Star fans outside the car.
At this time, the flash light came out loudly, illuminating the dark car window glass white.
In addition to the fans, there are also a large number of reporters waiting here.
Tomorrow... no, this evening, many photos and live reports will appear on the online media, and tomorrow the major newspapers in Jincheng will also intensively report on this game, as well as the stories and pictures behind this game.
.
Although this is not the first day that Shining Star has appeared in the media, it was not common for it to be reported by local media in such a large space and with such grandeur.
After all, this was the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, and the Flash Stars defeated a Chinese Super League team.
Winning this game is of extraordinary significance.
Football has returned to the lives of Jincheng people with a high profile, and now they have to get used to this kind of life with football again.
※※※
Fans of Flash Stars will definitely gather with friends on this Sunday night, find hot pot restaurants, skewers restaurants, barbecue restaurants, and other places where they can have a drink and discuss the game and Flash Stars excitedly.
Star's future.
The Flash Star team was relatively calm about the victory in this game.
After the bus drove back to the training base, Chen Mo informed everyone to come back for resume training tomorrow afternoon, and the team disbanded on the spot.
On the way back, Zhao Kangming had made it clear to the players that the victory in this game was nothing, because the opponent obviously underestimated the opponent. Therefore, they still did not test their true performance against the Chinese Super League team.
In this case, let's do our best in the next FA Cup semi-finals.
At that time, no matter whether you win or lose, as long as you try your best, you will have no regrets.
On Monday night, after all the Football Association Cup matches ended, the Football Association conducted an online draw ceremony for the semi-finals.
In fact, this FA Cup semi-final draw ceremony is just a formality, because no matter who the flashing star draws, it can basically declare that their FA Cup this season is over.
Or to put it conversely, any team that draws them means being sent to the finals.
Flashing Star is simply the "super luxury gift package" in the minds of fans of the other three Chinese Super League teams.
Yes, even though the Flash Stars just eliminated Haihe Shuanggang, which was a slight upset, no one is still optimistic about their prospects in the Football Association Cup.
Because the remaining three Chinese Super League teams are all among the top six teams in the Chinese Super League this season.
Dashun Golden Arrow, the champion of the Chinese Super League last season, is currently ranked first in the industry in the Chinese Super League, and they are very hopeful to defend the championship.
Shanhaimen, currently ranked third in the Chinese Super League.
Lingnan Poseidon are currently ranked sixth in the Chinese Super League.
They are completely different from Haihe Duanggang, which is ranked tenth.
The most important thing is that since Flash Star was able to eliminate Haihe Shuanggang in the quarter-finals, no matter who is their opponent in the semi-finals, how can they still underestimate the opponent with the lessons learned from Haihe Shuanggang?
When the opponent no longer underestimates the enemy and is far stronger than the Flash Stars, what capital does the leader of the Chinese League One, Anton Flash Stars, have to reach the finals of the Football Association Cup?
Therefore, being able to reach the semi-finals is already Flash Star's final result in the FA Cup this season.
And this result is actually very good for them. After all, no one expected them to reach the semi-finals in the previous FA Cup.
I believe that Bingxing himself did not expect to reach the finals again, or even win the championship.
In this case, wouldn't it be better to simply give up the FA Cup match in the semi-finals of the FA Cup?
Since there were only four teams and only two draws, the draw ceremony ended very quickly.
The final results are out:
In the first semi-final, Dashun Golden Arrow faced Shanhai Mariners at home.
In the second semi-final, Lingnan Poseidon will face Anton Shining Star at home.
Zhao Kangming looked at the lottery result in a daze, and Chen Mo next to him chuckled: "I really doubt that the Football Association did it on purpose."
Zhao Kangming, who came back to his senses, waved his hand: "That's not to say, the Football Association may not even know about our little grudge against Poseidon."
"Anyway, we are going back to Poseidon. How do you feel about it, Lao Zhao?"
"'No matter you win or lose, as long as you try your best, you will have no regrets.' It's too late to say this..." Zhao Kangming sighed, "Even if I try my best and lose, I will still be a little unwilling."
Chen Mo nodded: "I also want to prove to the management of Poseidon Club that their original decision was wrong. But if we lose the game, there will be no evidence to prove that we are taking the right path."
"Alas..." Zhao Kangming closed his eyes.

"Hu Lai, he turned out to be your former club!" Wang Guangwei said to Hu Lai next to him after seeing the lottery results.
"Isn't it? So great?"
Hu Lai replied perfunctorily.
He didn't pay attention to the lottery results at all. He was having a friendly exchange with Haihe Shuanggang fans on the "Goal" website using the ID of "WHO in the restricted area".
"Yes, yes, you are right. The fact that Shining Star can beat Haihe Shuanggang is purely due to luck! I suggest the Football Association declare the result of this match invalid and rematch on another day until Haihe Shuanggang can eliminate Shining Star!"
"Hey, hey, wasn't I just following your words? How come it's so weird? Otherwise what you said is wrong? It's your own fault that Haihe Shuanggang was eliminated?"
Wang Guangwei leaned over and saw what Hu Lai sent on his mobile phone, and rolled his eyes: "Aren't you bored?"
"It's not boring, it's so fun!" Hu Lai looked up and smiled like a child.
"Aren't you afraid that someone will expose your vest one day? Then you will be socially dead, Hu Lai."
Hu Lai waved his hand nonchalantly: "Don't be afraid, I am using Song Jiajia's email address to register this account."
"..." Wang Guangwei was speechless, "I don't know if being your friend is a good thing or a bad thing... Hey, we will play Poseidon in the next round of the Football Association Cup semi-finals, don't you have any ideas?"
"Yes, I want to win." Hu Lai lowered his head and continued to line up with the Haihe Shuanggang fan, he said casually.
"Win? Are you thinking online, Hu Lai?" Wang Guangwei was surprised. "That's sixth in the Chinese Super League!"
"So what, if it's another team, if you lose, you'll lose, but if the opponent is Poseidon, I will definitely win." Hu Lai said as his fingers were typing on his mobile phone: "What? This won't work either.
?You don’t admit losing, and you can’t win on the field. It really makes me (deleted) Flash Star very embarrassed, my friend..."
"How do you win?" Wang Guangwei asked.
Hu Lai shook his head: "I don't know."
"I don't know why you said you must win?" Wang Guangwei was amused.
Hu Lai put down his phone and looked up at his roommate seriously: "Old Wang, how to win is something our Director Zhao considers. If I can figure it out, you should call me 'Director Hu'. As a player,
We just need to cooperate with Director Zhao and be determined to win. So no matter how I win, I must win, and I will let Director Zhao know this, so that he will have confidence when arranging tactics. Otherwise, if
Our players have all been demoted before fighting, so Coach Zhao will definitely be in pain, right?"
When Wang Guangwei heard what Hu Lai said, he remembered that Director Zhao also had a grudge against Poseidon Club... He just thought that Hu Lai was kicked out by Poseidon.
But in fact, strictly speaking, Hu Lai was not kicked out, but a normal transfer. Poseidon also received a transfer fee of 500,000 yuan from him, but they did not spend a penny to sign Hu Lai.
Director Zhao and Coach Chen were the two who were really kicked out of Poseidon Club. They worked for Poseidon for ten years and six years respectively, and trained countless new stars for Poseidon Club.
As a result, they were directly expelled by the club's senior management because of disagreements with their concepts - nominally, the two coaches resigned on their own initiative, but that was just an argument to protect the faces of the two coaches.
So if there is anyone in the Flash Star team who wants to defeat Poseidon the most, it must be Director Zhao and Coach Chen.
Of course they have reasons to do this, but if the players are unwilling to continue to fight for the game that they are destined to give up, then the coach's ideas are sometimes useless. He must also consider whether he will force it to do so.
Caused dissatisfaction within the team.
Thinking of this, Wang Guangwei nodded: "Hu Lai, you are right, I also want to win this game."
Hu Lai smiled at him, picked up his phone again, and continued his passionate online dialogue.
