On June 11, six teenagers from Danzhai county, a Miao and Dong autonomous prefecture in China's Southwest Guizhou province, left the mountains for Russia. They were chosen to be flag guards escorting the FIFA flag into the Luzhniki Stadium at the opening game of the World Cup in Moscow on June 14. This is also the first time in 90 years that the World Cup has Chinese flag guards.

Vice-Premier Sun Chunlan met the six children in Moscow before the game.
