Once again, an unflattering page in the Olympics. It is not my intention to accuse
women's soccer
The girls, on the contrary, are the very ones who have brought us so many fond memories over the past few years, having been the double runners-up in the Olympics and the World Cup, and who have performed many times better than the men's soccer team, which couldn't even break out of Asia.
Looking back at my country
women's soccer
history, we started early, and our girls were already making a splash on the world stage before women's soccer was even established in many countries. We had a clear head start. However, as countries pay more attention to women's soccer and increase their investment, we have not been able to continue to maintain our position as a leader.

Against this background, it is not surprising that we have been reduced to the "brisket" in the world soccer world. At one time, facing the South Korean team was like a game, but now you need to put in a lot of effort to beat them.

According to the official news of the Portuguese giants Sporting Portugal, 19-year-old Shen Mengyu, our female player, officially joined the team and will represent the team in the new season to fight in the Portuguese Women's Football League! I hope that more and more players stay in the ocean, to promote the continuous improvement of China's soccer level!
