Jan. 23 (Xinhua) -- After the national team's 0-1 defeat to Qatar, there is little hope for the group to get out of the group, and China's new sports reporter Song Liqun has published an opinion piece.
The article said that Chinese soccer, with only two points from three group games and not a single goal scored, ended up being a math problem, and this time there may be no need to count. The math finally adds up to a humiliation for the weakest national soccer team in history. The whole team is "waiting to die" in the most embarrassing way.
Throughout the first half, the national soccer team played with due substance against Qatar, who played with a substitute lineup. But when Qatar switched to their starters, the game took on a wrong flavor. The extremely passive national soccer team didn't have much of an effective backhand and watched the game clock tick away.
This is the first time that the national soccer team has scored in the group stage since it participated in the Asian Cup, and the first time in the team's history that it has not scored. Judging from the course of the match, it was not the players' lack of endeavor that caused such a hopeless result, but rather the strength of the team.
More cruelly, from the youth training and other aspects can be predicted, the next five years, ten years, the strength of the national football team may continue to decline, the so-called "history of the worst national football team" is far from the bottom.
All kinds of helplessness stacked on top of each other made it hard for the national soccer team to find the right pouring point, even though they played so awkwardly. After looking around, coach Jankovic became the biggest emotional outlet for fans and media, naturally taking responsibility. Regarding the choice of the helmsman of the national soccer team, it seems to have reached another fork in the road.
If the head coach is changed, the new coach won't have enough time to polish after taking over, and the next two World Qualifiers can't be lost. Therefore, even if the CFA decides to change the coach, it will have to choose from among the current Chinese Super League head coaches, such as Jiao Di, the head coach of Zhejiang, who has a certain voice, and Xu Zhengyuan, the head coach of Chengdu Rongcheng. But what needs to be recognized is that changing coaches is unlikely to bring a qualitative leap in the performance of the national football team.
Now the strength of this youthful national football team is obviously declining, through this Asian Cup, we can intuitively feel that Asian soccer is in the process of collective progress. In this case, even if Lippi once again lead this national soccer team fighting, I'm afraid it will not help.
