The national team's first stop on German soil was a visit to the historic Borussia Mönchengladbach soccer club, where they competed against the club's U17 youth team. Unfortunately, it was not a smooth journey for the national team, as they conceded two goals in the first half, and then lost by six goals in the second half, resulting in an eight-goal deficit. The match revealed a significant gap between the national soccer team and its opponents. In this regard, the soccer blogger "Nemo watch soccer" analyzed: "In the second half, our mentality seems to have fluctuations, within ten minutes even conceded five goals. However, we should also see that the Chinese players did not lag behind their opponents in the intensity of confrontation and the pace of play throughout the game, both in the first and second halves."
A few days later, the National Junior Team had their second match against FC Stuttgart's U17 Youth Team. Although neither side broke the deadlock in the first half, the National Junior Team fell to a 0:2 defeat in the second half. For the second game in a row, the national team was left with no goals, but suffered a heavy loss of 10 goals. However, the turnaround came in the third game. China's U-16 national team sent a substitute lineup to face Stuttgart's U15 ladder team (09) this time. In the end, with the goals of Wang Zihao, Zhou Junzhuo and Yao Junyu, the national team realized a valuable victory with a score of 2:1 and a goal difference of 3 points.
