August 31, 2017, at 3:30 pm.

There are four and a half hours left before the kick-off game at 8 o'clock in the evening.

Chen Guanghua was busy in the stands at the Wuhan Sports Center. He pulled out a stack of red T-shirts in his arms and put them on the back of the seat, then sorted it out, and turned the side with the "Wuhan Hu, the world responded" printed on it to the outside.

Next he moved to the chair next to him and repeated the movement he had just made.

The stadium now has forty-eight volunteers like him, who are responsible for covering the stands with 48,000 refueling T-shirts before the game begins.

At that time, every Chinese fan who came to cheer for the Chinese team would see such a T-shirt in their own position, then put it on, turning the stands of the Wuhan Sports Center into a sea of ​​red, and making Uzbekistan players look at it, the world is red in addition to red.

Finally, after putting up a row of stands, Chen Guanghua straightened his slightly sore waist and saw the stands opposite.

One-third of it was already covered in red.

He looked back at the stand where he was, the same was true.

Red is slowly moving forward one by one, and eventually both sides will meet successfully in the stands somewhere in the middle.

Chen Guanghua fanned the air with his hand, but it was useless.

At the end of August, Wuhan is still worthy of the title of "fire stove". He looked up at the sky and hung in the air during the dim day, which was not dazzling. However, in the misty fog that covered the entire Jianghan land, the temperature could not be emitted, and there was no wind, making the whole Wuhan like a big steamer.

The Wuhan Sports Center, surrounded by dozens of lakes of all sizes, is the steamer in the steamer.

Although the competition was scheduled to 8 o'clock in the evening, Chen Guanghua could imagine that the temperature would not be much lower than now, and the feeling of sultry and humidity would not be reduced at all.

"This weather! I feel like there is a layer of water in my lungs!" Not far away, another volunteer complained loudly, "I hope to get rain before the game, so that it will be a little cooler during the game. Otherwise, playing football in this environment would be too physically exhausting!"

"It's hard to say, of course it's a disadvantage for us, but it's the same for Uzbekistan! Those from Central Asia are probably even less accustomed to this stuffy weather? I think it might have a greater impact on Uzbekistan!"

Volunteers busy in another row of seats responded to him.

The game has not started yet, but everyone is very concerned about this life-and-death battle.

Chen Guanghua did not participate in the discussion. He took a short rest and then lowered his head and bent down to start his own work.

Other volunteers did not continue to discuss this topic and continued their work.

At first glance, they were like farmers in rice fields, bent down to work, putting a touch of red seeds into the fields, hoping to wait until the night could harvest the fruit called victory.

An hour before the game started, fans began to enter the court one after another.

After every fan came in, he could not help but exclaim: "Wow!"

Then take out your phone to take a photo, post it on WeChat Moments, or Weibo.

"Today's Wuhan Sports Center has been dyed red! Come on, the Chinese team!"

"If there is a miracle and color, it must be Chinese red!"

"I came here specifically to see Gao Zheng, but I didn't expect that I was shocked as soon as I came in. The red color in the audience was so shocking! Come on, Gao Zheng!"

※※※

In the area where the volunteers rested, Chen Guanghua sat on the ground, with lunch boxes and a bottle of mineral water placed between his legs.

He took his mobile phone to browse his Moments.

Some of his friends also came to watch the game on site.

They took photos of red seats in pieces and posted them on their Moments.

But they certainly don't know that these are the fruits of their own labor...

Chen Guanghua smiled when the old farmer saw the happy growth of the crops.

For eight hours, he and forty-eight other volunteers spent eight hours putting forty-eight thousand red T-shirts where they should be.

After doing it, their waists are almost none of them.

The clothes on my body were wet with sweat again and again. Now everyone's chest and back were covered with white marks, which was a commemoration left after the sweat had dried up.

Although he was very tired, he still felt it was worth it when he saw the surprise expressions of everyone walking into the stadium.

He is just an ordinary volunteer who loves football and hopes to do his part to help it become a little better.

He couldn't go to the court to win honors for China, and he was already twenty-five years old and could not grow into a professional football player.

So before today's life-and-death battle, let him use this method to do his best.

If we really win in the end, there should be one of mine in the military medal, even if it is a very subtle one.

Chen Guanghua thought proudly.

※※※

When Chinese players and Uzbekistan players lined up to enter the Wuhan Sports Center, they were also shocked by the redness all over the mountains.

It's still red above red.

The red flag rolled around, and the shouts shook the sky.

Chinese fans in Wuhan have injected them with the most shocking way.

This is the last home game for the Chinese team in the top 12 games.

It is the end of the Chinese team at the door of their home.

They want to circle this period.

※※※

Just two minutes into the game, Uzbekistan took the lead in completing the first shot of both sides in this game. Shukurov shot from a long time, but failed to threaten the Chinese team's goal.

Since then, the Chinese team has launched a crazy offense.

Yes, crazy attack.

Because this is the home court of the Chinese team, there are 48,000 Chinese fans in the stands as their backing to cheer for them.

In the fifth minute, Li Xiaoting broke through on the side and sent a cross. Wu Lei's shot near the penalty point slightly missed the right post of Le's goal.

Although this ball was not scored, it opened the curtain for the Chinese team's offense.

In the ninth minute, Zhang Xizhe used his personal ability to create murderous intent. He forced himself to break through the bottom and passed the football back to the middle. Gao Zheng received the ball in the penalty area and shot low. The football was saved by Uzbekistan goalkeeper Nestrov!

In the 14th minute, Li Xiaoting dribbled the ball and cut inward, but was saved by Uzbekistan goalkeeper Nestrov and the Chinese team won the first corner kick of the game.

In the 18th minute, Uzbekistan's player Bikmayev knocked down Gao Zheng, and the referee showed him the first yellow card of the game.

Boos were heard on the spot.

The boo was given to the foul Bickmayev.

Because he brought down Gao Zheng.

Although the Chinese team has not scored a goal so far, every time they shoot, they can watch the joy on the stage.

Even more than just shooting, as long as there is a wonderful pass, a beautiful extraordinary person, and another successful defense, the cheers in the stands will immediately ring.

This is the home court.

Amid the cheers of nearly 50,000 Chinese fans, Uzbekistan's players were as if they were tied up and kicked very restrainedly.

Even their goalkeeper Nestrov began to deliberately delay time in the 26th minute.

And I got a yellow card because of deliberately delaying time. This was the second yellow card in this game.

The game only started twenty-six minutes, and the opponent's goalkeeper had to risk taking the card to delay the time. This shows how much pressure the Chinese team's offense has put on Uzbekistan...

However, he was given a yellow card so early, so he couldn't use the tactic of delaying time in the next game, which laid some hidden dangers for Uzbekistan's defense.

China's offensive continues.

In the 28th minute, Zheng Zhi intercepted the ball in the frontcourt and then passed the ball to Wu Lei on the left. Wu Lei took the ball and cut inside, then took a kick and Nesterov hit the ball out with both fists...

"Nestrov is in good condition, this is not a good thing..." commentator He Ping took the time to talk about a little concern while being excited.

The Chinese team's offensive is very strong, which is a good thing. But he is also worried that such a fierce offensive by the Chinese team will expose Nestrov's condition. At that time, Nestrov is in a brave state and can save any shot. Wouldn't the Chinese team be bound by itself?

The Chinese fans in the stands did not have such concerns, they were cheering for the Chinese team.

Chen Guanghua is also among them.

As volunteers, they can also watch football on site, which may be a reward for their volunteer service.

Chen Guanghua wore a red T-shirt and shouted loudly for every Chinese attack.

His voice was hoarse just after thirty minutes of the game.

But he didn't care and continued to shout.
Chapter completed!
