In the midst of the soccer boom, the focus of our soccer attention has gradually turned to the field of women's soccer. Currently, our national team is actively preparing for the match in Panyu, and players are signing up for it. It is worth mentioning that Tang Jiali, who was originally scheduled to join the team overseas, returned home early due to a temporary transfer to La Liga and is now playing for the Shanghai Women's Football Team. This former overseas player has now returned to the national team in a new capacity, becoming a "general" in the eyes of Coach Shui Qingxia, and is even expected to become the frontline core of the team.
The highlight of the assembly training was naturally the warm-up game. After a period of physical recovery, Coach Shui Qingxia quickly entered the rhythm of the training matches. In order to ensure the intensity of the game, she deliberately chose male soccer players, of which the Guangzhou team's two ladder teams of 2008 age group and 2009 age group became her first choice. These two teams train in Panyu all year round, making it very convenient to book warm-up matches. The match is scheduled for February 5 at 15:00 hours.
According to the plan, Guangzhou 08 ladder team became the main lineup of the women's soccer team. Facing a strong opponent, the Chinese women's soccer team won 3-1 with their tenacious fighting spirit. Subsequently, 09 ladder team and women's soccer substitute lineup also showed good competitive status. Although it was only a warm-up match, the result still has some reference value. After all, the opponent is not bad, our women's soccer team should not have conceded 3 goals in the match. Of course, since 2023 is the first debut, international players also need a process of adaptation.
The training in Panyu has lasted for two weeks and is coming to an end. Subsequently, our women's soccer team will go abroad to play, when seven overseas international players will also complete their reports, and Coach Shui Qingxia's camp will be expanded again. The third lineup will be supplemented and the strongest lineup will be created. According to the warm-up schedule, our women's soccer team will compete with other strong European teams, and the real test is coming. Whether it's the World Cup or the Olympic preliminaries, the women's international players will need to build a foundation of confidence in overseas training to fight for the future of our soccer.
