Bianjian streets louder than ever, as the nation celebrates its historic victory at the football World Cup
15 July 5726



Streets of Gemun, the capital city of Bianjie, have never been as alive and happy as they are now. Tens of thousands of Bianjians went outside to celebrate one of the biggest victories for the Bianjian sport on the international arena as the nation's football male team has acheived a stunning victory in the inaugural World Cup tournament hosted by Luthori. In a final head-to-head important match between the Bianjian and Mordusian teams, the former came out victorious with a 1-0 score in the Artanian state's capital city, Fort William, attended by many esteemed guests, including the Khan Nilhuma, a long-time football fan and patron of the Football Association, who has witnessed his nation being awarded golden medals and the trophy.

The major tournament, which took place in Luthori from June to July this year, was full of surprises, with the largest one being, obviously, the Bianjian victory over many stronger nations and predicted winners. The Pink Phoenices have easily concquered the group stage with 2 decisive victories over the opposite teams, and one unfortunate loss, but that was enough to stay on top and qualify for the round of 16, where the hardest challenge came at the first Dovanian derby match with the New Englian team, ending in a penalty shootout, successful, as it finished with 4-1 score for the Bianjian side. Later, the Phoenices have had highly two resultative matches 1/8 and 1/2 matches with Dundorf and Ikradon, both ending with a 4-3 score in favour of Bianjie, sending the national team to the finals with the Seleyan representatives from Mordusia, where the Phoenices have come out victorious with a 1-0 score, becoming the world champions, sending the streets of Gemun and other cities of Bianjie into a full festive and celebration mode in the early morning, as the final match ended in Luthori.
 
For Bianjie, where football is one of the primary sports, this victory symbolises everything: from the simple pride for the football culture and strength of national team players, to the story of the underdog and smaller nations winning against the bigger, stronger and other predicted winners. "When you take Bianjie, a national of just 14 million people, and then compare it to Dundorf, where there are ten times more people, it is a huge victory for us", said one of the fans in Gemun. "They live their football since birth, but then come our children of Ersangi, Cikirame and Caiboo, and just win against those giants. We are blessed to have such talents representing us". Ota Iwao, the hero of the final, who scared a victorious ball in the Mordusian goal at the 82nd minute, will be awarded with the Bianjie's highest order following the team's arrival back home, the spokesperson for the Orchid Palace has announced.
