After that, Wang Anzhi took root in youth training and coached in several youth training units such as Beijing San Gao and NPC Attached Middle School. Since he had not previously coached

Troops, before taking office, he deliberately sought advice from Shang Ruihua, Liu Ying, Wang Hong and Wang Jun, including tactical tendency to physiological cycle.

Due to the epidemic, female young in addition to intensive training, almost no international competition to play, and participate in the women's A competition, due to the opponents are older than their own age, some even adult team, so, "there is no pressure to lose, think it's okay." Wang Anzhi said, and this, is what he was worried about, "did not compete with the same age team, the bottom do not know how their level."
Two seasons down in the Women's League, the Lady Juniors have improved a lot, in 2021, they won 4, drew 1, and lost 5 out of 10 games and ranked 7th; in 2022, they won 6, drew 2, and lost 3 out of 11 games and ranked 3rd. It can be said that there is a qualitative leap.
Still, Wang Anzhi expects the U17
World Cup
Compete against foreign teams of the same age before the start, "so that there is a little bit of a bottom in your heart."
In August of this year, for the 7th training session, the Lady Juniors traveled to Europe for a training session, where they first defeated 4-1 the
