Long-term training has been the usual practice for Chinese national teams at all levels of soccer for many years. However, in recent years, the performance of Chinese men's soccer teams has not improved as a result of long-term training. There are even some talented players who have been recruited by national teams at all levels for long periods of time, resulting in fatigue and serious injuries that have prevented them from realizing their talents, one of which is represented by Huang Zichang. Yet, even with all of this, the Chinese men's and women's soccer teams continue to train, train and train! It's safe to say that training overseas ends with training at home and training at home.
However, anyone who knows a little bit about soccer knows that the professional league will always be the most solid backing for the national team. Players participating in professional leagues are far more effective than training. However, it seems that Chinese soccer will always be an expert commanded by amateurs. This is not the case. The Olympic team, which has already had a long period of overseas training this year, will begin training for up to 26 days. In the morning, the Chinese Football Association (CFA) announced that the Chinese Olympics will travel to Dalian from Aug. 19 to Sept. 13 to organize training in preparation for the Qatar U23 Asian Cup Qualifier, the Asian qualifying tournament for the men's soccer team for the Paris Olympics, which will be held from Sept. 6 to 12 in Dalian.
In this training, 25 players were recruited, including 5 Shanghai Shenhua players, 2 Wuhan Sanzhen players, 3 Shandong Taishan players, 1 Zhejiang player, 3 Shanghai Harbor players, 2 Chengdu Rongcheng players, 1 Henan player, 2 Beijing Guoan players, 3 Dalian players and 1 Guangzhou player (Eiffelding). , one from Suzhou Dongwu and one from Nanjing. Many of the 25 players recruited are starters in the Chinese Super League and Chinese League One. Their prolonged training is not only detrimental to the players' form, but also a big loss for the major clubs.
We didn't say that long-term training violates the laws of soccer development, and no soccer developed country does that. As far as the three opponents in the U23 Asian Cup qualifiers are concerned, there seems to be no need for the Olympic team to train for a long period of time. Fans who follow Chinese soccer know that the Olympic team for the U23 Asian qualifiers have already gotten their signatures against the UAE, India and Maldives. If they face these three teams, the Olympic team has no confidence to win the first place in the group. Then, we can only borrow Fan Zhiyi's famous quote from that year.
