Chapter 12 Who is Moganera?
The Japanese media present also knew about the matter between Zhou Yi and the Japanese Olympic team, but the feeling they felt different when they reported it. It was clearly Zhou Yi who showed his confidence and domineeringness.
But according to the Japanese media, Zhou Yi became the identity of a challenger.
"…Zhou Yi, the leader of the Chinese Olympic team, challenged the Chinese Olympic team..."
This is the tone of the Japanese media.
So if you only look at the reports of Japanese media, you will think that the Japanese Olympic team has a more advantage.
But unfortunately, only Japanese journalists were present in the whole matter, and there were no media from other countries, so we could only let the Japanese media say what they said.
Zhou Yi didn't care what the media said about him, because football ultimately had to rely on his feet to speak.
Beating against your opponent on the court is much better than talking.
On the evening of July 29, the Chinese team welcomed their second opponent in the group stage, the Swiss National Olympic Team.
Because European teams generally do not attach much importance to the Olympics, many European teams even send U19 to participate in the Olympic qualifiers, so traditional European power teams are rare among the sixteen teams participating in the Olympic finals.
This Olympics, four European teams participated in the finals. The hosts are the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Belarus and Spain. Among them, only the United Kingdom and Spain are considered strong teams, and the strength of Switzerland and Belarus is very average.
The B Group B where the Chinese team is located is actually Mexico, Switzerland and Gabon, and it is unlikely that it poses any threat to the current Chinese team.
This is also proven by the progress after the game begins.
At the end of the first half, the Chinese team broke the deadlock on the court. He Ying received an assist from Zhou Yi and scored his first goal in this Olympics.
This ball helped the Chinese team lead Switzerland 1-0.
However, after the two sides changed sides and fought again in the second half, in the 60th minute, the goal guarded by Sun Pan was broken.
At that time, the Swiss forward Emeghara's shot hit Guo Nu's toes during the flight and changed direction. Facing this line change ball, Sun Pan was out of reach and could only watch the football fly into his goal.
However, after losing the ball, Sun Pan did not accuse Guo Nu, but just pounded hard to vent his depression.
However, Guo Nu himself seemed very embarrassed. He wanted to apologize to Sun Pan, but he didn't dare.
At this time, Sun Pan had already gotten up from the ground. Seeing Guo Nu with a constipated expression beside him, he glared at him: "What are you doing? This ball is not counted as you entered, don't stand there!"
※※※
The Swiss players after the goal were very happy because it gave them hope of winning. In the first game of the group stage, they tied 1:1 with Gabon. If they could defeat the Chinese team in this game, their hope of qualifying in this group will increase greatly.
However, after conceding the ball, the Chinese team suddenly broke out and caught the Swiss team off guard.
Zhou Yi led the team to suddenly attack after conceding the ball, instead of continuing to hit their defensive counterattack.
This wave of offensive caused the Swiss team to be in a hurry, and in the end Wu Lei's shot was blocked by their goalkeeper Benario and went out of the baseline.
The Chinese team won a corner kick.
Zhou Yi ran to the corner kick. He took a relatively more job in the Chinese Olympic team, and he left all the set balls in the frontcourt to him.
The corner kick he kicked straight to the front point of the goal.
Guo Nu, who was ambushing in the penalty area, saw Zhou Yi kicking the football out, and accelerated to the front point. With his short and uneasy appearance, he bypassed the defensive player, appeared at the front point, and then relied on his excellent explosive power to jump high!
The jump was even higher than the other defenders in the penalty area!
In order to jump so high, he even threw out his center of gravity just to be able to reach this ball. Zhou Yi did not lower the height because it was Guo Nu who came to compete for the top. He maintained a normal height. It was not easy to reach this ball with Guo Nu's height.
But Guo Nu rushed to the air, he looked back at the moon, and pushed the football towards the goal behind him!
"Guo Nu--!"
Amid He Ping's cheers, the football flew into the goal from a close corner!
"In the 64th minute, after three minutes of the National Olympic team conceding the ball, they took the lead again! Beautiful! Guo Nu's header was very difficult and very suddenly, and Benalio did not react at all! Guo Nu made up for the result! Because the previous lost ball was when the football changed direction to the goal after touching his foot... Now he made up for this mistake with the goal!"
After scoring the goal, Guo Nu roared, with a hideous face and was not very cute, but at this time, in the eyes of all Chinese fans, he was the cutest person!
Swiss goalkeeper Diego Benario, who concedes the ball, was helpless and shook his head. He had two people who knew about the Chinese Olympic team, one was Zhou Yi and the other was Yang Muge, because these were all opponents he could finally get in the Bundesliga. As the main goalkeeper of Wolfsburg, he might know more about Zhou Yi, and he knew that Zhou Yi's assist ability was excellent.
But he really didn't expect that the goal was conquered by the small central defender.

After conceding the ball, the Swiss team became a little impatient, and they moved more and more in the defense. In the second minute after conceding the ball, Swiss defender Moganella acted too much while defending He Ying, which almost caused He Ying to be injured. His foul caused a conflict between the players on the court.
In the end, the referee showed Moganella a yellow card, but Moganella still looked angry. If Benalio hadn't pulled him away, he might have to go up to the referee to argue, which might not be a yellow card.
Guo Nu also received a yellow card on the Chinese team. He had a direct "dialogue" with Moganella during the conflict. He also received a yellow card because of this.
In the following game, the unwilling Swiss team launched a fierce offensive against the Chinese team's goal, and the Chinese team relied on solid defense to resist the Swiss team's offense, and at the same time counterattacked recklessly, making the Swiss team dare not put a big push.
In the final stage of the game, their two forwards received yellow cards because of their impatientness. In this game, four players received yellow cards. According to FIFA regulations, if a team with five players received yellow cards in a game, they will be fined. The Swiss team is one yellow card away from this penalty standard.
But this still failed to save their defeat.
When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game, the score was frozen at 2:1. The Chinese team defeated Switzerland and won two consecutive wins in the group stage!
"The game is over! We win!" He Ping announced excitedly. "The National Olympic Team, which won two games in two games, has obtained the right to qualify from this group in advance! We have qualified!!"
Another game in this group ended before the match between China and Switzerland, and Mexico defeated Gabon 2-0. After two rounds of group matches, the Chinese team won two games and scored six points, Mexico won one win and one lost three points, Switzerland and Gabon both scored one draw and one loss one point. With the last game left in the group stage, the Chinese team led the third place by as many as five points, so naturally they had already qualified in advance.
If Switzerland wants to qualify, it has to fight Mexico in the last group match. As long as Mexico can tie with them, it can ensure that it qualifies.
This time, the Chinese team does not have to play any life-and-death battle or honor battle in the last game of the group stage. They can watch the tiger fight. This is a rare experience for Chinese football...
※※※
It was a very happy thing to win Switzerland and get the right to qualify in the group. The Chinese Internet was also having a carnival in the early morning that day, and the Chinese media the next day were also in a sea of joy.
But in this case, disharmonious voices appeared.
After losing the game, Swiss defender Moganella made some remarks on social networks, causing an uproar.
The player who fought against Chinese players many times during the game and had conflicts said on Twitter: "I want to beat the Chinese and burn them to death...their trisos!"
"trisos" is a French slang term that means "Down syndrome", a word used to describe disabled people with intellectual disabilities and special faces. He used this word to describe Chinese people, which has obvious insults and racial discrimination.
After Moganella's remarks were released, they were quickly spread across the Internet and caused an uproar.
Chinese netizens happily greeted Moganella's 18 generations of ancestors on the Internet, and almost all the Chinese dialects and swear words were collected on Weibo.
The Chinese National Olympic Team also knew about this matter very quickly. Zhou Yi asked Guo Nu: "Old Guo, who is that idiot? He has qualified in the group and encountered such a mess."
"How do I know?..." Guo Nu spread his hands.
"Don't you play in Serie A? Isn't that idiot also play in Serie A, Palermo?" Zhou Yi asked.
"It's all, it's all about Serie A, it doesn't mean you need to know each other!" Guo Nu felt aggrieved.
"Damn, you Serie A people are really not qualified!" Zhou Yi said.
"Gogun! No, no map cannons!"
Everyone laughed, and Zhou Yi was in disguise again.
At this moment, Zhou Yi's phone rang. It was called by a Swiss reporter and asked him what he thought about Moganella's remarks.
Zhou Yi's answer made the reporter speechless. He asked: "Who is Moganella?"
Swiss journalists don’t know if Zhou Yi really doesn’t know who Moganella is, but they still want to explain to Zhou Yi that Moganella is the No. 17 of the Swiss National Olympic Team and plays as a defender.
After listening to the reporters' introduction, Zhou Yi "suddenly realized": "Oh, sorry, I can't remember those players who have no sense of existence. As for what I think of his remarks...a trisos comment made by trisos."
"Will this hurt the feelings of the Chinese people?" asked the Swiss reporter.
"Stop teasing, the Chinese people are not trisos. They will hurt their feelings by such trisos' remarks." Zhou Yi said.
"But we noticed that there are also many voices scolding Moganella on the Chinese Internet..." The Swiss reporter continued to ask.
"This, when we scold trisos, it does not mean that our feelings have been hurt. It's just a normal and polite response." Zhou Yi defended his motherland netizens.
This made the Swiss journalist have nothing to say.
Just after hanging up the phone, Zhou Yi's cell phone rang again, but it was still called by the reporter.
After that, Zhou Yi received a lot of such calls. Faced with these reporters’ questions about Moganella, Zhou Yi’s first answer was “Who is Moganella?”
"This answer is good. I think we can align the caliber and answer the reporters like this." Sun Pan just finished speaking, and Yang Muge's phone rang. It turned out that he came to ask him what he thought about Moganella.
