Recently, the Qatar World Cup is in full swing, the national football team failed to participate in the World Cup, which is the pain in the heart of all Chinese fans.
The Qatar World Cup has Chinese people everywhere except for the absence of a national soccer team, the World Cup's main venue was built by China, and the largest number of World Cup sponsors are Chinese companies.
So, to approximate, the Chinese team also participated in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, and we were just put in the logistical support group to fight against the countries, and we won numb!
Meanwhile, something big has happened to Chinese soccer.
On November 26, an official notice announced that Li Tie, the former head coach of Chinese men's soccer, was suspected of serious violations of the law and is currently under investigation by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Group of the State General Administration of Sport and the Hubei Provincial Supervision Committee.
The fewer words in a network-wide notice of this caliber, the bigger things get!
At present, the specific details of Coach Li Tie's violation of the law have not been officially announced, there are various speculations. I will not jump to conclusions here, everything is waiting for the official notice.
Chinese soccer is in the spotlight as Li Tie is investigated.
In the World Cup, Japan beat Germany and South Korea beat two-time world champions Uruguay, also Asian teams, so why is it that our men's soccer team sucks, and Japan, and South Korea get to shine.
Why has Chinese soccer never been able to do that, and what exactly is the difference between us?
The legend of the sea cucumber in men's soccer has not yet dispersed, Li Tie had an accident. Some people say that Chinese soccer is so bad, this pot let Li Tie back, Li Tie was arrested, must have done something hurtful.
It has to be said that during Li Tie's two years in office, the national soccer team has been getting worse and worse every year, so much so that many Chinese are starting to miss the resigned foreigner manager Lippi.
Under the leadership of Li Tie, although the national football team is going downhill, but let Li Tie coach alone Chinese soccer pot obviously a little difficult.
I have to say that compared to soccer, our table tennis can dominate the world, and here's why. What are the principles? Table tennis doubles is also a lot of cooperation ah! Why badminton we can, why we can dive? Why is soccer bad.
As for why the national soccer team is so bad, I think you can find some reasons from the fact that Beijing Guoan lost to Jingchuan Wenhui.
On the afternoon of November 17, 2022, Jingchuan Wenhui successfully advanced to the Round of 16 by knocking out Chinese Super League powerhouse Beijing Guoan 7:5 in the second round of the 2022 China FA Cup in Rizhao, Shandong Province.
Beijing Guoan is the strongest top team in China and one of the pillars of the Chinese men's soccer team. Even people who never follow soccer have heard of Beijing Guoan.
Maybe you are shocked to hear this, Beijing Guoan lost to Jingchuan Wenhui, what kind of team is Jingchuan Wenhui? Why have I never heard of this team?
It's only natural that you haven't heard of it. I hadn't heard of it before. Then I looked up the information and learned that the Jingchuan Wenhui team was founded in August 2021 as a team organized by soccer enthusiasts in Jingchuan County, Pingliang City, Gansu Province, and did not play much on the regular field.
Jingchuan is a poor county in Gansu Province. The total population of the county is just over 300,000 people. The team has only registered more than 100 players, with an average age in their early 30s. They are all amateurs from all walks of life.
Being a poor county, there is naturally not much money to raise this soccer team. Most of these players play for free in their spare time as a hobby.
By any measure, this is a very unimpressive amateur team, a motley crew. But unbelievably, such a miscellaneous team beat China's famous Guoan team in a regular match.
Some might say that maybe Beijing Guoan is taking things lightly, but no matter how lightly you take things, you can't beat an amateur team organized by such enthusiasts.
What is the configuration of China's top background Guoan team? Players earn 10 million dollars a year, play soccer professionally, eat sea cucumbers every day, and have no place to talk about hardware. Maybe one player's annual salary is enough for Jingchuan Wenhui team to play for several lifetimes.
So how is it funny that this professional kicker who makes millions of dollars a year still can't beat the amateur teams that poor counties organize themselves for a hobby.
Eight years ago, the men's soccer team beat Thailand. Fan Zhiyi, a retired Chinese player, said angrily in front of reporters that the face of Chinese soccer had stopped and he would lose to Vietnam. So far, Fan's words still resonate in the soccer circle.
However, the Chinese men's soccer team did lose to Vietnam in a World Cup qualifier. It turned out that Vietnam had already peeled the face of the national soccer team, but I didn't expect Jingchuan Wenhui to rub the national soccer team's face on the ground again.
In any case, Vietnam is also a national team. Jingchuan Wenhui is a poor county in the west. You're worth hundreds of millions. You can even lose when others do it for a hobby. Can't you play any of the town and village teams?
For our fans, we have to thank Jingchuan Wenhui for being a clear stream in the soccer world. Although our current level is relatively poor, I believe it is fans like Jingchuan Wenhui that will bring Chinese soccer back to the top.
If Jingchuan Wenhui doesn't break the status quo of Chinese soccer, then our soccer really is coming to an end.
