Later, players Gao Lin and Zhao Peng accepted interview. Gao Lin referred that "As what you all have watched, we performed passively in this match, there indeed existed some unexpected factors, but the major problem still rooted in our actual capability. We have to admit the gap between us and foreign teams. The head coach did his job toughly by making so much adjustment, he wanted to satisfy the media and funs to the largest extent, as well as to train young players. Since young players are unfamiliar with each other, they could not cooperate well on the pitch."

No one ever imagines China's football team would result in such a fiasco. When the scores are 0-2, Chinese football funs had already begun to show their dissatisfaction, they not only screamed to fire José Antonio Camacho Alfaro (the current head coach of China's football team), but also threw stuff towards the pitch. Then during the second-half, Chinese team lost another 3 scores, the funs shouted loudlier and loudlier. When the match was over, those funs blocked the mixed news-covering area,and even normal post-match interview was affected by the situation then. The players went into the dressing room with silence, some of them even wept. However, out of the dressing room, funs' reaction became more and more fierce with larger and larger crowd, the players' walk-off was even delayed by one hour.

Under such circumstances, the players had to leave from another exit of the stadium, they sat in the bus, watching all what happened outside without saying or doing anything.
