Shui Qingxia suffered a blow to the head! England boss bluntly states that China's women's soccer team is capable of challenging for the Premier League stage, and Wang Frost's insight hits the bull's-eye. As the 2023 Women's World Cup came to a close, England's women's soccer team advanced to the final with a 3-1 win over hosts Australia. The final is also against an English team, and whoever wins will write a new chapter in Women's World Cup history.
England's women's soccer team reached the semi-finals of the World Cup for the third consecutive year, while Australia's women's soccer team reached the quarter-finals for the first time. According to the world ranking, England is ranked fourth and Australia tenth. In terms of experience and strength, England has a clear advantage. In the end, England beat Australia 3-1 and advanced to the final with Spain. In an interview, England skipper Wegman was asked about the topic of Chinese players studying abroad. The reporter pointed out that the English Premier League is one of the most competitive women's soccer leagues in the world, and that most players play in the Premier League, including Chinese player Jiali Tang, who plays for Tottenham. Do you think other Chinese players can play in the Premier League against the best of the best from different countries?
Facing this question, Wegmann did not hesitate to say that Chinese players have every chance to compete in the Premier League. In fact, the World Cup is an opportunity for all players to show themselves. Wegmann's comments made Shui Qingxia feel doubly embarrassed, as the Chinese women's soccer team lost 1-6 to England in the World Cup. Wegmann had expressed surprise that the Chinese women's soccer team had adopted the same tactic - defensive counterattack - for three consecutive matches. Now, he is convinced that Chinese players can gain a foothold in the English Premier League. However, this view of his is certainly a wake-up call for the Chinese women's soccer team.
