In September, our men's soccer team will meet the challenge of India, Maldives and UAE in the Olympic team. Despite the strength of the UAE team, there are a lot of talented players in the U22 national football team. 2001 age group players, such as Abraham Khalik, Nai Bijiang, Tao Qianglong, etc., have all shown excellent strength. In addition, the 03 and 04 age group players such as Hu Huotao, Mutalipu, He Xiaoke, etc. have also joined the U22 national football team, the future can be expected.
Tao Qianglong, the 2001 standout, has become a central force in the U24 national soccer team for the Asian Games. In the warm-up match against South Korea in June, he helped his team beat the opponent 1-0 with his outstanding performance. In the league, Tao Qianglong has even scored goals, showing unlimited potential.
Nai Bijiang, also born in 2001, is playing for Guoan and has shown great strength with 4 starts in 5 appearances and 1 goal and 1 assist. He is in the critical period of his career and has a bright future ahead of him.
Abraham Halek, a star player for Chengdu Rongcheng, also born in 2001, has injected a strong motivation into the U22 national soccer team. 2004's Hu Huotao and Mutalipu are also playing important roles in the Rongcheng team. In addition, young players such as Li Changyi are working out in foreign leagues, offering more possibilities for the future of Chinese men's soccer.
Although China's men's soccer team has made certain achievements in youth training, there is still a certain gap compared with European and American countries. In order to improve their strength, the U22 national soccer team needs more high-quality matches, and may even consider studying abroad en masse. Through overseas training, we expect the younger generation of players to help the national soccer team return to the first class in Asia.
