In the opening match of Group I of the AFC Champions League, Beijing

The team went toe-to-toe with United City FC of the Philippines and ended in a 1-1 draw, a result that was surprisingly eye-opening. It left the struggling Central

national soccer team

In this AFC Champions League, more or less some light is showing. After all, Beijing

national security

The team's lineup is still considered by many to be a "kid" level of existence. Therefore, from the two AFC Champions League matches, the China

national soccer team

The development of the team also has to start with the development of young players, and they have to be allowed to play more often.

Compare this to Guangzhou's players, most of whom committed to the AFC Champions League straight out of football school, and the Beijing

national security

There are at least a few players in the team who have had experience in the Chinese Super League and Chinese B League, and have even played for the National Youth League team. Although Cerezo Osaka is slightly better than Union City FC in terms of strength, in terms of match results and process, Beijing

national security

The lads of the team played much better than the players of Guangzhou Football School, especially in the use of match experience, the gap is obvious. Therefore, the training of young players still has to be practiced through matches.

Overall, however, both Beijing

s youth army or Guangzhou's youth army, their AFC Champions League debuts were quite impressive, at least in terms of their wholeness, and they showed that they are not a scattered team, but an organized team. This reflects the fact that Beijing

and Guangzhou's investment in youth training. They have five more games to go, whether they face Japan, South Korea or the Philippines, and I hope these young players can really learn and improve with each game.

From Beijing

We can also see that at this stage, there is still some value in the national youth team playing in the Chinese B or even the Chinese A League. For example, players such as Liang Shaowen, Duan Dezhi, Nai Bijiang, Hu Jiaqi, etc., through the experience of playing in the National Youth Football Team in the Chinese B Grade, their individual ability and game experience are obviously better than those Guangzhou players who just came out from the football academy. Although Beijing

national security

The players in the team look young, but they are more like a mature team compared to the players who play directly in the Guangzhou Football School. Therefore, the value of a player no longer depends on age alone, but on match experience, match mentality and match experience.

Of course, for 18-20 year old players, they still have some problems in basic skills, passing reasonableness and playing stability, but maybe we should pay more attention to their highlights and give more encouragement so that the purpose of their participation in the AFC Champions League will be achieved.

Through these two AFC Champions League matches, we have seen the Chinese

national soccer team

They are energetic, talented, skillful and mature, and the only thing they lack is the experience of playing at a high level. For example, Beijing

Teams and United Towns F.C.

The free kick scored by the team is enough to be called a "round moon machete", some may say it is luck, but even so, it can not be separated from the solid basic skills.

Maybe like Beijing.

Several of the players in the team have already gained some experience while playing in the National Youth League in the Chinese B Grade, but they will grow even more quickly in the AFC Champions League level. Therefore, this time Guangzhou and Beijing

national security

The team sends young players to the AFC Champions League, and although there is a risk of failure, what they gain will be intangibles compared to failure, from which talents such as the Asian Footballer of the Year may emerge in the future.

Of course, the Chinese

national soccer team

The development of soccer, as we can also see from this AFC Championship, especially these two matches, is not just about shouting slogans, but about starting with youth training and getting down to earth.
