As a result of the onslaught of the epidemic
China national soccer team
The home of the upcoming Qatar World Cup Asian qualifying round of twelve has been forced to adjust, having to schedule the first two matches in Doha, Qatar. Our soccer team is scheduled to fly to Doha from Shanghai on a special Qatar Airways flight in the early hours of August 26, Beijing time, to participate in the first two rounds of the tournament.
In the face of the epidemic, although the CFA can not send special people to Doha in advance to inspect the hotel, training and competition venues, but through advanced means of communication, the security team has a more detailed understanding of the local training, competition and reception conditions. After the arrival of the national football team in Doha, will be strictly in accordance with local requirements, the strict implementation of the "bubble type" closed-loop epidemic prevention measures. At that time, the national football team must be in the AFC, the Qatar Football Association to provide candidate hotels, select one as the team resident hotel.
The national soccer team is no stranger to facing the climate of West Asia, as they set up their home ground in Sharjah, UAE, late in the Top 40 tournament. According to the weather forecast, on the day of the match between the Australian men's soccer team and our men's soccer team on September 2, the daytime temperature in Doha, Qatar, will be between 33℃ and 42℃, which will be a heat battle. The match is scheduled for 4 p.m. locally, which is also one of the hottest times of the day in Doha.
In order to prevent the national football team in Qatar local up to 42 ℃ high temperature game, the Chinese Football Association has been in communication and consultation with the Qatar Football Association, and finally came the good news, the Qatar Football Association in accordance with the Chinese Football Association and the Australian Football Association's request, and finally determined to be equipped with air-conditioning in the Khalifa World Stadium to play the game.
As a result, the national football team will play at a comfortable temperature of more than 20 degrees Celsius, allowing them to maximize their true level of performance. According to the organizers, the temperature at the Khalifa World Stadium will drop quickly thanks to "sustainable cooling technology". The stadium has 3,000 cool air vents, which blow cooled air from the stadium's huge air tanks into the stadium quickly at night. The top of the stadium is designed as a monolithic structure, which is particularly effective for temperature control. However, without the air conditioning on, the stadium would still be unbearably hot. But precisely because of the high cost of using an air-conditioned stadium, it is doubtful whether the Qatar Football Association (QFA) will agree to allow the participating teams to conduct their daily training in an air-conditioned stadium. AFC, Qatar Football Association for the initial organization of the national football team daily outdoor training start time for the local 4:00 p.m., if not in the air-conditioned stadium training, then for the international players is undoubtedly a huge test. Our team does not rule out the possibility of negotiating with the local authorities to delay the start of training until the evening of the training day.
