Beijing Guoan drew 1-1 with Shanghai Seaport in the final round of the second stage of the 2022 CFA u21 League in Zhangzhou, Fujian, on Dec. 24, winning the title with an undefeated record of five wins, two draws and 17 points. Shanghai Shenhua and Guangzhou won the second and third place.
As the only undefeated team in the u21 league, Beijing Guoan u21 is not only in the lead in the standings, but also has the most number of wins and goals scored, with only 6 goals conceded in the two phases, which is also the least among all participating teams. Yan Yu, the 66th member of the team, won the title of best player in the tournament, he scored 7 goals in the u21 league, and his teammates "rushed to" the 32nd round of the Chinese Super League to support the first team against the Guangzhou team in the game, scored the first goal of his career in the Chinese Super League. In recent years, the national security club to increase investment in the development of youth soccer, has a relatively sound reserve talent system, including the adult team belonging to the club, the youth team and the junior team, as well as through a variety of forms of cooperation with the social amateur youth soccer club.
This season, a lot of young players in the u21 league to get very good training, in the first stage of the 12 teams, nearly 35 players in the end of the tournament, the club was called up to the first team, and in the professional league debut. I believe that in the future, "Yan Yu" will gradually pick up the beam, to a higher and bigger stage to go.
In the just-concluded Qatar World Cup, although the French team failed to defend the title, but with the fruit accumulated in recent years in the youth training, get enough space for young players, can still make the French soccer in the competition continue to shine. In addition, to create the history of African teams into the quarter-finals of the Moroccan team, their Mohammed VI soccer academy is also first-class facilities, adhering to the "do not miss every talented child" youth training philosophy, so that Morocco's outstanding soccer talent to receive the best training, in the World Cup performance of Ennesri, Onassi, etc. are from the academy. The academy. Sufficient to highlight the importance of youth training in the development of soccer: in the case of maintaining a certain level of youth training, the local professional league to give young players the space and opportunity, to a certain extent, can also "feed" the national team.
In recent years, the education sector and the sports sector have made a lot of efforts and attempts to develop youth soccer, how to drive more children to play football is a key issue facing the development of domestic youth soccer at this stage. China's soccer reform and development of the overall program also put forward: "to promote the growth of youth soccer talent scale." In the current not ideal environment, professional clubs also have the responsibility to adhere to the soccer youth training, rooted in the foundation. Let more and more young people fall in love with soccer, on the pitch, with the continuous development of professional clubs at all levels of the ladder league, there will be more soccer talent to stand out, retain more professional fire, out of a club with Chinese characteristics and advanced concepts of the development of youth training road.
