On July 16th, the morning sun dawned, and China's elite men's national soccer team wrapped up their ultimate preparation training before their trip to Japan. With sweat pouring over the green grass, players Fang Hao and Jiang Shenglong stepped into the media spotlight.
Fang Hao's eyes are firm, talking about the honor of shouldering the national gown, he lamented, "This time on behalf of the national team, I cherish. On the training ground, the teammates are passionate, the rhythm is compact, the confrontation is intense, we have done everything for the game."
Referring to the four goals in the Dubai Cup, Fang Hao downplayed them into history, "It has always been my dream to fight for my country. In the game, I will give my best to contribute my part to the team."
Talking about the changes in his body, Fang Hao revealed that after months of hard workouts since returning from the Dubai Cup, he has lost nearly 10 pounds and his body fat percentage has dropped to 8.8%. His strict demands on himself are the result of the head coach's strict guidance.
Jiang Shenglong, as the backbone of the team, has long been accustomed to the intense daily training. He knows that this kind of targeted training is precisely to cope with the upcoming high-intensity games. Talking about his debut in the international A-grade tournament, Jiang Shenglong said in a firm tone: "Every national game is a stage to show myself. I'm going to take what I've learned in training and play with all my might, injecting confidence into the team and kicking out the momentum."
