According to the latest training instructions issued by the Chinese Football Association (CFA), the 31 members of the Chinese men's new national team have been assembled one after another. Among them, the striker Wu Lei, who plays for La Liga's Espanyol, is absent for some reason, and the rest of the players need to arrive at the Shanghai Resident Hotel to complete the signing-in before 6:00 p.m. on August 19th. Players from the Chinese Super League (CSL) Guangzhou need to sign in early to 18 at 12:00 noon. It is reported that the team plans to carry out the first outdoor training of this training period at 4:00 p.m. on the 18th at the base of the Houpaier Sports Park, in which the physical recovery and physical reserve will be the focus of the training in the coming week.
To cope with the Qatar World Cup Qualifier Asian Zone 12 tournament that will start in early September, the Chinese men's soccer team started a week-long training in Shanghai in the middle of this month, and then will go to Doha, Qatar to prepare for the game. The coaching team and staff have finished signing in on the 17th, while the Guangzhou players will report on the 18th by 12 noon. Guangzhou and Shandong Taishan teams have their own players called up, occupying most of the training lineup. The remaining 17 international players, in addition to Wu Lei, the remaining 16 due to participate in the August 15, the Chinese Super League Suzhou District bye game, was delayed until 19 to the team. However, due to the tight timeframe for preparation, head coach Li Tie decided to start training from the 18th.
As in previous training sessions, the national players generally felt fatigue after the intensive league matches, but their desire for the World Cup in Qatar compelled them to overcome the difficulties and actively engage in the next stage of the national team's preparation. Players have been arriving in Shanghai since noon on the 17th, including Guangzhou's naturalized player Jiang Guangtai, as well as naturalized players such as Eckerson, Luo Guofu and other players from the Guangzhou tournament team. Head coach Li Tie also arrived at the premises in the afternoon of the 17th. In view of the serious situation of epidemic prevention and control, the CFA and the management team of the national football team have put forward strict epidemic prevention requirements for all team members. The whole team members will collectively undergo nucleic acid testing after arriving. During the matches in Shanghai and outside China, all members will be arranged in separate rooms. For meals and personal actions, the national football team has set the same strict internal epidemic prevention rules. As of noon on the 18th, only 14 international players have arrived at the team. In order to help the team enter the state of preparation as soon as possible, Li Tie decided to carry out the first outdoor training of this training session that afternoon. Although the players after a few days of rest, the body is still feeling fatigue, the necessary physical recovery or "wake up" training will be the main content of the next two days of training.
