With the Chinese women's soccer team's come-from-behind 2-1 victory on the road in Goyang, South Korea, the team set off on their return journey on the evening of the 9th, local time, with Shanghai as their destination. Fellow travelers also included members of the South Korean women's soccer team. After successfully completing the quarantine test, the two teams moved into the Gusu area on April 10th. The much-anticipated second round of the Tokyo Olympics qualifiers will begin on April 13 in the afternoon. If they win this match, the Chinese women's soccer team will have a ticket to the Tokyo Olympics.
Chinese men's soccer players have sent their blessings to their women's soccer comrades: Zhang Yuning expects the strikers to be brave and invincible; Wu Xi wishes the coaching team to strategize and win; Yu Dabao hopes that the backline will be solid in defense and not concede a single goal; and Yan Junling wishes that the goalkeeper will play bravely and shut down the opponents. In addition, players such as Alan, Ekerson and Artemisia also cheered for the girls.
Can the Chinese women's soccer team achieve a double over the Korean women's soccer team this time, continue their undefeated streak against the Korean women's soccer team (previously 5 wins and 1 draw), and make it to the final round of the Olympics for the 6th time? This seems to be exactly what Jia Xiuquan mentioned in the interview, "I think the next key is to let go of the last win, get back on track, and be really ready for the challenge."
