Recently, China's women's soccer star Tang Jiali revealed in an exclusive interview with Oriental Sports Daily that she is learning Spanish and dreams of going overseas to realize her dream of staying in the world.
Talking about the previous elimination match with South Korea, Tang Jiali was very emotional: "The atmosphere was very different from the match, plus the fans had not been able to watch the match live for a long time, I think we were all very excited about each other." Then she talked about the current situation of the Women's Super League, saying, "Of course we are looking forward to seeing such a scene, but when the epidemic came, the league had to be suspended, and women's soccer is really not as much attention as men's soccer, but I firmly believe that day will come.
Tang Jiali also revealed her progress in learning Spanish: "After more than a year of study, the grammar is okay, but verb conjugation and memorizing words are just too challenging." "I particularly like the Spanish style of soccer, and I especially appreciate Barcelona, especially Lionel Messi. I have been following Barcelona's matches since I was in the youth team, and gradually realized that this is exactly the style of athletics I like. Our Shanghai team also plays with a focus on passing and teamwork."
On the topic of staying abroad, Tang Jiali said, "Since many of my teammates had been abroad, I was worried about both xenophobia and language communication. In fact, I was able to adapt in all aspects except for training, and I feel very independent."
