However, in recent years, the development of China's men's soccer team has not only failed to improve, but has suffered a drastic regression.
In the past, we stood at the top of Asian soccer, with only a few countries such as Japan, South Korea, Saudi Arabia and Iran slightly ahead of us, and the gap was negligible.
However, to date, the national football team's competitive level has fallen to the second or third rate in Asia, and the gap with Japan and South Korea's soccer is widening.
According to the past position of the national football team in Asia, even if the World Cup expansion, we should have been a place. However, now that Asia is ranked only 13th, it is unlikely that 13 places will be allocated to the World Cup.
Fantino knows the national soccer team like the back of his hand. Usually, as the president of FIFA, he uses incentives. However, this time, the sharp criticism is really a needle in the eye.
Whenever you reflect on the rapid decline of Chinese soccer in recent years, those moths that erode the health of soccer surface.
In the past one or two years, the relevant authorities have carried out an all-round crackdown on corruption and falsehoods in Chinese soccer.
Du Zhaocai, Chen Xuyuan, Li Yuyi, Yu Hongchen and other figures who once held the hand of the fate of soccer, because of selfish desires, pushed Chinese soccer into the abyss, and their behavior is really despicable.
Today, most of these people have been duly punished, but the road to recovery for Chinese soccer is still long.
Li Tie, in the team taken away for investigation, is a special presence.
Although Li Tie in the ability is not as good as Chen Xuyuan and others, but its bad influence and the degree of corruption is even more. He is in the national team manager of the important position of recklessness, the amount of money involved in the easy to break through the "small goal", can be called the national football team "injured" the main culprits.
Today, seven months have passed since the first trial of Li Tie. Normally, a first trial should be concluded within three months, and no more than six months for serious cases. At present, Li Tie's case has been delayed for more than 6 months, and the probability of facing a death sentence or even the death penalty is extremely high. Such an outcome has undoubtedly received widespread attention.
