The performance of our women's soccer team in the Olympics triggered a wave of anger among fans. Three matches, two losses and one draw, scoring six goals but conceding 17, such a report card makes people can not help but worry about the future of women's soccer. Fans are pointing the finger at manager Jia Xiuquan, who has not only been controversial in his selection of players, with several of the national team's main players not being able to participate, but has instead introduced some newcomers, who have had mediocre performances at the Olympics, and whose tactics have also been widely questioned. The overly aggressive tactical arrangements led to the team suffering two crushing defeats.
After the Olympics, fans demanded Jia Xiuquan's dismissal. However, Jia Xiuquan believed in an interview that he had led the team to good results and said he had not considered resigning. According to Ma Dexing, a reporter with the national team, Jia Xiuquan still enjoys some authority in women's soccer. However, in the face of external pressure, the CFA finally decided to let Jia Xiuquan step down. According to media reports, Jia Xiuquan has already said goodbye to his players, and the candidate for the new head coach of the women's soccer team has fallen between Wang Baoshan and Hao Wei.
Hao Wei had coached China's women's soccer team and achieved some success during his tenure. However, he was poached by Guangzhou, ending his career as the head coach of the women's soccer team. Although Hao Wei knows a lot about women's soccer, the Football Association made him a candidate based on the results he achieved during his previous coaching period in women's soccer. However, Hao Wei is still serving as the head coach of Shandong Taishan, which has performed well this season and is expected to hit the league title. Hao Wei has also been questioned by fans in Taishan, but the club is unlikely to let him go at this critical moment, otherwise this season's efforts may be lost.
Therefore, the possibility of Hao Wei as the head coach of women's football is not great, at least at this stage is not mature. Then, another candidate, Wang Baoshan, has become the favorite. Wang Baoshan is a famous Chinese soccer coach, and his status in the soccer world is not inferior to Jia Xiuquan. He has coached national teams and has achieved good results in coaching Chinese Super League teams Henan and Tianjin. Wang Baoshan is a manager who can quickly bring a team together as a whole, change the temperament of a team in a short period of time, and be fairer in his selection. Perhaps Wang Baoshan will be the right choice for the women's soccer team.
