This Chinese team that came to Zagreb is not a national team in the traditional sense. Today, when the country's economy has just improved, the security funds given to them are relatively limited.

With 23 players, 4 coaching staff members and 2 translators, the team of these 29 people also constitutes the complete structure of this Chinese team.

With limited funds, the coaching team actively exerted their subjective initiative and brought a batch of economical and affordable logistics materials such as rice, flour, starch, raw powder, seasonings, sauces from China, and tried their best to solve the practical problems that everyone was not accustomed to foreign flavors.

In the previous week, pickled vegetables, bean paste, Lao Ganma and other people brought from China have greatly opened up the players' appetites and made the uncles and aunts who cook in the apartment fall in love with this Chinese flavor.

However, due to the intense game intervals, there was no time or mood to organize the ultimate moves left by the coaching staff, so they were delayed until the last day of August.

Now that the group stage has ended, the Chinese team, who has survived death, has magically qualified. There is still two or three days off before the knockout round. In order to fulfill the promise that he had agreed to Uncle Kovac last night, the coaching team decided to make dumplings together tonight.

In China, eating dumplings usually chooses New Year's Eve, the Beginning of Autumn, and the Winter Solstice, which brings a festive taste, especially the feeling of eating together is even more intense.

When the players heard that they were eating dumplings for dinner tonight, they felt very beautiful.

I have been here for more than ten days. The meals are all seafood risotto, beef stewed with potatoes, pasta, fish soup, etc., which makes me feel greasy. Now that I can eat a authentic hometown flavor, I feel naturally happy.

Some of the players can help with some tricks, while others are just messing around. In addition, Kovac, a large group of curious babies, the apartment in the Lower City is like the New Year, and it is very lively.

The dumpling skin is rolled out with flour brought from China, but the fresh filling can only be purchased from nearby supermarkets, including pork, beef, and the most common local ham, fish and shrimp.

It is said that the Chinese are far more talented in cooking than they are on the court. This group of Chinese not only tinker with the dumplings they like to eat, but also specially made several different stuffings for this group of Croatians, including ham, beef, potatoes, and bacon.

Even the domestic fish balls and shrimps are made by mixing fish and shrimps and crushing them into fillings. The finished product is similar to the common shrimp dumplings in China. The crystal clear appearance makes these Croatians amazed just by looking at the color.

After cooking and leaving the pot, it will be accompanied by the soy sauce and aged vinegar brought from China, especially the "Hao" that Kovac praised, and the taste of immortality will be unforgettable in this life.

The Chinese people were very happy to eat this meal, while the Croats were even happier. These locals had never been to China thousands of miles away. They completely fell in love with this taste when they tasted Chinese food for the first time.

Before they finished their meal, they were eager to care about when their next game was. Then they would go and cheer for it. Can they still have another delicious meal after the game?

I was afraid that some players would not be full of dumplings, so the coaching staff thoughtfully crushed the rice into rice paste, then combined with clear flour, starch, corn flour and raw flour, and mixed it into a sticky white rice paste in proportion, scoop a spoonful and put it into a basin, sprinkle vegetables, egg liquid, and meat on it evenly, put it in the pot and steam it for a few minutes to take it out, and it is an attractive rice noodles.

Rice noodles are the most popular breakfast in Guangdong and Guangxi. There are nearly ten people from Guangdong and Guangxi. When they see it freshly released, they are much more excited than seeing dumplings. They eat two or three servings in a row and don’t stop.

The rice noodles here taste like Cantonese rice noodles, and the native Guangzhou Zailu Lin also gave a thumbs up.

When he knew it was made by head coach Zhao Dayu himself, he understood the reason and couldn't help but praise: "Jiu Zhao, this taste is good enough, you can start a shop."

As a Guangdong native, if you like to eat, you will naturally have some research on eating. Seeing that everyone likes his skills, Zhao Dayu was also quite satisfied and smiled and said, "If you like it, eat more, it's not enough. But Lu Lin, you know your own business. You can do it yourself if you eat more and eat less."

Lu Lin, who was injured, stuck out his tongue and replied firmly: "With the exclusive secret rice noodles cooked by Zhao, you can eat no problem!" Everyone laughed out loud.

It was also the first time that Kovac witnessed the entire production process of rice noodles. Seeing the rice paste covered with rice paste and steamed, after a few minutes, you could actually scrape a layer of skin from the basin where the rice paste was previously filled and piled into a thick rice noodles. This was simply amazing!

I personally tasted his favorite beef shrimp noodles, and mixed it with a spoonful of Lao Ganma, whom he was obsessed with. This smooth and q-flex taste is the best rice noodles in the world.

After eating the dumplings, these Croatians were fascinated by the rice noodle again. They were like they discovered a new world. They couldn't stop at all. They slipped from the tip of their tongue into their stomachs and could never come out again.

The combat effectiveness of the host and guest team is indeed amazing. The dozens of kilograms of flour, clearing powder, raw powder and other ingredients brought by the team from China were cleared, and all the ingredients purchased in the afternoon were also wiped out.

After everyone was full, the residents nearby dispersed one by one. Before leaving, they did not forget to cook and hug them, thanked them for their hospitality, and promised to go to the stadium to cheer for the Chinese team in the next game.

After the others were almost gone, Kovac and several colleagues from the apartment invited Chinese players to the terrace on the rooftop, turned on the speakers, and played a passionate song "Croatian Rhapsody". Everyone danced a cheerful Lindu dance to the rhythm of the dance.

Chinese players don’t know how to dance their country’s dance, but they are infected by this group of happy people. They also twist their waists and hips in the same way. They are a bit funny and cute. From time to time, they hear the cheerful laughter from time to time. Under the azure night, they float far away and drift to the other side of the Sava River in the distance.

It is said that the blue from the Mediterranean is the deepest blue in the world, which makes the night sky here also stained with this intoxicating blue. At this moment, Li Weizhen was in the bustling crowd, stopped his stiff dance steps, looked up at the sky, and was suddenly a little stunned.

This blue is not as cloudless as the daytime bright blue, but is shrouded under the night sky, exuding a hazy beauty;

Through this layer of blue, you can see the scene in the outer sky. You feel that they are very close to you. Even the natural stars look so big, just like you can pick them into the palm of your hand with just raising your hand.

This is the first time Li Weizhen has stood on the land of Europe and looked up at the night sky. His thoughts are like a tide. He wanted to recite a poem, but he was not educated. When he spoke, he said: It's so good that he can't be so sturdy!
