The battle between China and South Korea not only rekindled the passion of Chinese fans, but also ignited the domestic public opinion field.

With the warm-up of the past few days and the huge attention brought by Gao Han after coaching the national team, the first away game against the South Korean team in the top 12 has attracted unattainable attention in more than ten years.

CCTV's live broadcast ratings are the best reflection.

According to statistics from the ratings data platform, the ratings of this focus battle were as high as 11%, close to twice the highest ratings of Hengda AFC Champions League that year, setting a record for the highest ratings of CCTV football matches since the Korea-Japan World Cup.

According to the number of people, there were about 150 million Chinese people watching the game that night. If we included the diversion of many online platforms, the total number of people would exceed 200 million viewers, which is a grand occasion that Chinese football has never seen in more than a decade.

From this data, we can also see that as the national team miraculously entered the top 12, the Chinese people's football enthusiasm is constantly returning, especially the attention to the top 12. I believe that after this victory against the South Korean team tonight, more and more Chinese fans will pay attention to the game.

In addition to TV ratings, Weibo’s hot search list can also truly reflect the popularity of this game.

Keywords: The Sino-Korea battle has been far ahead and ranked first in the hot search list. Then there are hot search keywords such as Chinese football and China and South Korea, which have all ranked on the hot search list.

In the game, every goal of the Chinese team created a hot search term, and it quickly jumped to the top as soon as it entered the list. Especially when Zhang Yuning scored twice, Wu Lei's goal and the instant of the Chinese team's goal, they even made it into the top five.

The only surprise is that there is a noun that has nothing to do with the game. After the game, it quietly squeezed into the top ten and rushed to the second place with lightning speed, and it was not inferior to the Sino-South Korea battle at all.

That is Gao Han’s wife.

The incident originated from the end of the game. Gao Han couldn't help but hugged his wife Lin Xia affectionately on the sidelines, but was captured by live TV cameras and many media reporters, which resulted in a carnival among netizens and was on the hot search list on Weibo.

Although Lin Xia is not an entertainer, she also enjoys a high reputation in China, especially among the fan groups. But now, with Gao Han's support, she has become completely famous throughout the country and has also made Gao Han a target enviable by countless men.

Which man doesn’t desire to have a wife like Lin Xia who is both talented and beautiful?

In addition to Lin Xia, the naughty little Gaoshen also stole the spotlight and entered the hot search list for the first time, but the ranking was relatively low.

But whether it is Lin Xia or Gaoshen, it is just an unexpected gain. The Chinese team defeated South Korea is the focus of carnival for all Chinese and netizens.

In the other two games played at the same time, Iran defeated Qatar 2-0 at home, Uzbekistan defeated Syria 1-0 at home, and after defeating South Korea 3-1, the Chinese team unexpectedly topped the Group A standings as the first in the group.

This immediately made domestic fans and public opinion even more fanatical.

Before, no one believed that the Chinese team had the strength to compete with South Korea, Japan, Iran and other teams, but now, they have to admit that the battle against South Korea has completely exerted the confidence of Chinese football.

As the famous live broadcast commentator said in the comments, Chinese football has been professionalized for so many years and has invested heavily in these years. It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no progress. The reason why the past has always given people the impression of being sluggish is more due to their own psychological factors and strong pressure.

"It should be said that from the perspective of strength, we are much worse than South Korea and Japan, but the gap is not irreparable. Gao Han used overwhelming tactical victory to make up for the gap in strength among national team players. As a result, we also saw that, three to one, the Chinese team defeated South Korea away."

"There is no doubt that the greatest contribution of this game should be given to Gao Han. He has completely demonstrated the coaching level of the world's top famous coaches, and has also made us re-understand the famous saying of our ancestors. One soldier will win a nest, and Chinese football has finally welcomed a world-famous coach."

"But we should also note that as Gao Han said at the post-match press conference, winning South Korea does not mean that we can defeat other opponents. The game requires real and pragmatic, and playing games one by one."

"With our overall strength, not to mention facing South Korea, even if we are the next opponent Iran, if we are not careful, it will be enough to put us in a state of unforgettable state. We hope that the national players can be cautious and make efforts to prepare for the battle. We also hope that domestic public opinion and fans can be calm and rational, and try our best to create a relaxed game environment for the national team."

Many football insiders have also come forward, on the one hand, giving Gao Han a very high praise for the arrangement of troops in this game, but at the same time, they also call on international players and fans to be calm and rational.

The Football Association also commented on Weibo as soon as possible, forwarding the advice and encouragement from Gao Han’s post-match press conference, calling on all Chinese people and fans to work together, thank everyone for their support, and thank all the national football players.

FIFA also retweeted Twitter and Weibo that night to congratulate the Chinese team on their victory.

There are also many domestic football players, especially several foreign coaches, who have praised this game.

Lippi said in an interview with the media in Guangzhou that Gao Han's arrangement in this game showed the style of a world-class coach, which once again confirmed his previous judgment on Chinese football.

"If you pay attention to this game before the game, I believe everyone can easily draw a conclusion that Gao Han's victory was to calculate South Korea step by step since the game. From media and public opinion to players' mentality adjustments, Gao Han did everything without any leakage, and the entire preparation was almost perfect."

"But what surprised me the most in this game was that Gao Han's attainment in defensive organization, the defensive system he created was very orderly, resilient, and the players' execution ability was high enough, which made the Chinese team still able to hold the score steadily while losing nearly 70% of the ball possession on the court."

"In the game, Gao Han's substitutions were constantly changing the trend of the game, pushing the Korean team step by step to a difficult situation. His wisdom allowed the Chinese team to lose control of the ball on the court, but he firmly controlled the initiative. In this regard, he was definitely at the master level."

"I want to say that this is a textbook victory. I would highly recommend it to all coaches, especially Chinese coaches, to study and research. It is like a treasure house that brings together the essence of Gao Han's coaching in European football for more than ten years."

Foreign famous coaches such as Scolari, Eriksson, and Magath who coached in the Chinese Super League also praised Gao Han. During his time at Inter Milan, Cannavaro, who once played under Gao Han, gave his mentor a high evaluation, believing that Gao Han gathered the essence of Italian defense and created a steel defense line belonging to Chinese football.

The next morning, authoritative party newspapers also commented, believing that Chinese football defeated South Korea three-to-one, completely breaking the Korean fear that has plagued Chinese football for decades. They won two goals back, but they won the hearts of more than one billion Chinese people.

"Gao Han has always been the pride of Chinese football. At the critical moment of life and death, he resolutely took over the position of coach and saved Chinese football. With the help of one person, he dragged a mess and crossed the lifeline of life and death, and entered the top twelve."

"In the first game of the top 12, Gao Han was excellent in planning and helping the Chinese team defeat South Korea 3-1 away. This is the first time we have entered the top 12 in the past fifteen years, and it is also the first time in our Chinese football history that we have defeated South Korea in major events."

“******,******.”

"Gao Han has been working hard to practice this sentence, and we believe that under his leadership, we have every reason to expect this national team to bring us more miracles."

"National Football Team, please keep moving forward!"

Compared with the domestic media's praise for the national team, the Korean media also rarely gave the national team a very high evaluation.

Yonhap News Agency wrote an article with the title [HK fear shattered]. On the one hand, it highly praised Gao Han's coaching in this game, believing that the young Chinese coach completely showed the style of the world's top coach, and his control over the game completely crushed his opponent Stilik, and was the biggest contributor to China's victory and reversal.

"Seoul was once a nightmare land for China, but now, Gao Han and his team are here, using a bloody victory to completely break the curse of Korean fear and transform the curse into a lucky place for China."

"The three goals were scored very beautifully. It can be seen that they were the result of the cooperation of the team. There was no chance or luck, which made us convinced after losing the game."

"It can be said that the Chinese team in this game has played a momentum and courage that has been rare in decades."

"In contrast, South Korea has an absolute advantage in terms of strength, but it turned out to be a crushing defeat."

"It is obvious that Stilik's tactics have obvious flaws. His clumsiness and stupidity were fully exposed in front of Gao Han. He made us have no secrets in front of the Chinese team. The crushing defeat in the first game of the top 12 not only made Korean football and fans feel heartbroken, but also made the situation of striking the World Cup."

"Perhaps, from the game last night, we must start facing the rise of Chinese football."

In addition to Yonhap News Agency, the captain of the South Korean national team, Ji Chengyong, also expressed his disappointment, but he was more concerned about the overall situation and did not take the lead in the head coach Stilik like the media and fans.

German coach Stilik said in an interview with South Korean media that he was willing to be responsible for the loss, but he still said that he was full of confidence in South Korea's rush into the Russian World Cup and firmly believed that the team would strive to win Syria away next.

In addition to China and South Korea, China's defeat of South Korea in the top 12 matches quickly attracted attention and heated discussions from Asian football and even the whole world. Especially Gao Han's arrangement of troops in this game was highly praised.

If Gao Han led the Chinese team to defeat Maldives and Qatar in succession, he did not show his excellent technical and tactical level in this battle, then in this battle, he completely played the level of a world-famous coach, and everyone knew that even if he had withdrawn from the front line for more than a long time, his coaching level was still the world's top level.

However, compared with the hot discussions between the media and fans, Gao Han and the national team did not participate.

On the night after the game, the team flew back to Shenyang from Seoul overnight. The next morning, the team began preparing for home games against Iran.

Everything was carried out in an orderly manner according to the plan formulated by the coaching staff.

But unexpectedly,
Chapter completed!
