Memories of the race △

On the night of February 6, Yao Lingwei's teammate was robbed of a pass due to a mistake near the end of halftime, and Lingwei also committed a handball foul on defense. At the time, Ling Wei didn't think she would be whistled because she remembered that she was only holding her hand on the ground, and it was the ball that touched her hand. After the ball touched her hand, Ling Wei waited nervously for the referee's decision, and the moment the referee ruled that she had committed a foul, she felt her heart go cold, and at this point she could only pray that the other team's penalty kick would not be scored. However, it was not to be, and when the Korean player kicked the ball into the goal, Ling Wei's mood fell to the bottom again.

But as a professional athlete, Ling Wei quickly adjusted her mindset and gave herself a secret pep talk, "The game isn't over yet, and the score isn't finalized!" She believed that her team would be able to turn the situation around, and she herself would do her best to make up for her mistakes in the second half.

"The final is no longer just a test of our skills and tactics, it's a test of our willpower and fighting spirit."

Yao Lingwei commented on the match against the Korean women's soccer team, "Believe in your teammates, believe in the team, we went all out to fight." Yao Lingwei said that when the score was behind, the whole team remained united, positively adjusted, and went all out to play every minute, never give up.

-Injured and convalescing, the parents are worried and the wind chaser girl is in tears.

Yao Lingwei also told the reporter about an injury she was impressed with.

During a competition, Yao Lingwei suffered a knee injury. Initially, in order not to affect the training and competition, she chose conservative treatment. However, later on, this place is always injured, a month and even repeated the injury three times, Ling Wei really can not hold on, only to go to the expert check, this time the expert said "must do surgery".

Ling Wei originally did not want to tell her parents to take care of her for fear that they would be worried, but she was told at the time that she had to be accompanied by someone to take care of her, so she had no choice but to tell her parents. Because her mother had never experienced such a situation, she was very worried and nervous when she saw Ling Wei being pushed into the operating room.

Ling Wei could see her mother's concern.

She was scared herself and wanted to cry, but she gritted her teeth and told herself she couldn't cry or her mother would be even more worried, and luckily, the surgery went well.

But it still hurt her to see the busy figures of her parents in bed with her after surgery.

Talking about the experience of being injured, Yao Lingwei shed tears △

In addition to not being able to let her parents worry, Ling Wei was also filled with fear of the unknown, and she was worried that she would never have anything to do with soccer ever again. During the recovery period from the surgery, seven months of long rehabilitation training filled her heart with anxiety and confusion.

Doctors warned Yao Lingwei that she could only play soccer for two more years, but after her recovery, Yao Lingwei decided to return to the team. She valued every opportunity to play soccer as if it were her life, "I want to play every game to the best of my ability".

The surgery left three scars on Ling Wei's body, but this optimistic girl thinks it's cool and says "trauma is the best medal for an athlete".

Yao Lingwei rolled up his pants leg and showed the reporter the scars left after the surgery at that time △.

In Wang Shizheng's memory, Yao Lingwei was a very intelligent child, and when she was a child, her body was relatively thin and weak, and she was called a "tomboy" by them.

Wang Shizheng said that Yao Lingwei has been practicing especially hard since she was a child, and she often stays behind to practice after others have left. She plays football with obvious characteristics, sensitivity, speed, and in the soccer field control ability and organization ability is also particularly strong.

Yao Lingwei took a group photo with her schoolmates from her alma mater Xianghe Elementary School.

This time back in Xu, Ling Wei also returned to her alma mater to give her blessings to her schoolmates.

-Adjust your mind and body for the next race.

Yao Lingwei said, running around for so long has always wanted to come back, and now that he is back he wants to accompany his parents and get together with his old coach.

After that it's back to the team to continue training and prepare for the next competition.

Finally, Yao Lingwei sent a message to the city's soccer players:

I hope you can bring the spirit of Chinese women's soccer to us!

Let's be confident.
