I miss the atmosphere of football in China in 2002.

I went to senior one that year, and I still can't forget it. Top ten teams began to pay attention to the fate of China, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Oman and Uzbekistan when drawing lots. After reading this result, I was extremely excited and uneasy. How I long for China to realize the Chinese dream and rush out of Asia once. In the top ten, I watched all the home games in every game, even if it was away, and I waited for one game as long as time allowed. Yang Chen's sunshine is handsome, China's grandson Sun Jihai's frankness and objectivity, and Zhang Yuning's approachability left a deep memory on me ... Except for some troubles when visiting Qatar away from home (fortunately, Li Weifeng created a black three minutes for the other team), China's qualifying process was smooth. With Yu Genwei's victory over Oman in Wulihe 1 October 7th, 2006, China finally realized its dream of the World Cup. At that moment, my mood was very calm.

The summer of 2002 was cruel to our fans. Because the first two games in China are scheduled for noon. At this time, the squad leader got a radio. In history class, all the members of our football team get together to pay attention to the China team, even if it is only a little record. The World Cup left us not only the premature exit of France, Argentina and Portugal, Zidane's lonely back, Buddy's sad tears, Beckham's penalty redemption, Cafu's holding the World Cup, but also China's singing the national anthem to Brazil and Zhao Junzhe's goal post shooting.

How time flies! It's been almost seven years. Now I miss not only the China team at that time, but also my friends who played football with me. Maybe time and space are really heartless, which can dilute the initial memories ... But does anyone remember that there was a team that surprised us and made us pay close attention ... Sometimes it was really helpless, and I saw countless fans' feelings about China now, such as the rain, the rising cold wind and the separation of banks. Sometimes I'm really disheartened, and I don't know if I can pay attention to the China team again, maybe later …
