After a short rest two days, the Chinese team in the afternoon of November 21, not far from the resident hotel in Gusu Taihu soccer base opened the first outdoor training after returning home. In addition to Jiang Guangtai and a very few other injured or unwell people, most of the international players will join the training. Similar to the last homecoming, the Chinese team still did not arrange media interviews during this stage of closed-door preparations in Gusu. After a storm of controversial comments by the skipper Li Tie, the whole Chinese team needs to prepare for the game.
On the evening of November 18th, the Chinese team returned to the premises of the Taimei Xiangguli Hotel in Gusu Taihu Lake and rested for two days. Utilizing this valuable time, the entire team members adjusted to jet lag and recovered their physical and mental state. Given that the Chinese team still retains the theoretical possibility of qualifying for the Round of 12, the coaching staff did not relax and used this time to review the first two rounds of matches and develop training plans and opponent analysis for the next two rounds of matches.
As planned, the Chinese team held its first outdoor training session after returning home at 3 p.m. on the 21st at the Taihu Lake base. The reason for such a quick resumption of training is that the final stage of the Chinese Super League is expected to open on December 12th. According to the epidemic prevention regulations, the entire team will not be released from medical quarantine observation until December 8 or 9 at the earliest. Therefore, the bonding time between the international players and their clubs is extremely limited, and they must maintain a certain level of training intensity.
From another point of view, after a long period of confinement, it might also be the most ideal way to relax the spirit of the international players to get out of the hotel room and reach the training ground.
It is reported that the same situation as last month after the team returned home, the Chinese team in this phase of the Gusu closed period, still will not arrange media interview sessions. On the one hand, it is not appropriate for the team to have contact with the outside world from the perspective of epidemic prevention. On the other hand, the team needs to continue to work hard in a quiet environment. Especially after the head coach Li Tie's recent personal comments caused a huge controversy, the team is inevitably affected by the outside voice. In this situation, "cold treatment" has become the most appropriate "fire" method. Since the return of the national football team, Li Tie himself has kept silent on his personal social media platforms, and he and his assistants will focus on leading the team's work in the near future.
It is reported that at present, in addition to the Chinese and Australian game in the first half of the right thigh muscle strain Jiang Guangtai, the other international players in general good health, even if some minor injuries, but also does not affect them in the next club tournament to play. Taking into account the recent team is relatively tired, the 21st afternoon of the "first practice" content to "body wake up" as the main.
At present, the atmosphere within the Chinese team is relatively normal. 21 morning, all members received a new round of nucleic acid testing, members of the national football team security team will be in the national football team training at the same time, in another field for internal soccer activities.
