The Chinese Super League has not been officially divided into zones and routes, but after many efforts, the Shanghai duo has stepped into Dalian to implement the segregation, this news makes the fans excited, and has become a rare positive news in the past three months. At present, the Chinese Super League Association and the CSL preparatory group is fully promoting the approval of the third race area, if all goes well, May 27 is expected to start the new season of the Chinese Super League. The postponement of the Hangzhou Asian Games also opens up the possibility of a full season of 34 rounds of matches in the CSL.
Last week, the OCA announced the postponement of the 19th Asian Games, originally scheduled to be held in Hangzhou from September 10 to 25, with the exact dates to be determined. Previously, the Chinese Super League's new season plan, the Asian Games need to draw a number of teams of U23 players to participate, resulting in the league suspended in September, instead of playing the AFC Cup. Now the Asian Games is postponed, the league can be carried out normally, the AFC Cup can refer to last season's arrangements during the league.
However, for the national football team, the postponement of the Asian Games is not all good news. The national football team does not lack long-term training, but the lack of high-level tournament platform, so that some professionals are difficult to judge the strength of the national football team, in turn, not as enthusiastic fans know more about the national football team.2019 Asian Cup, the national football team ranked 6th, and then in the Qatar World Cup Asian 40 into the 12, but ultimately, only 6 points ranked the bottom two, the Asian rankings fell to 10th place.
Analyzing the performance of the 12 strong tournament, the national football team is more difficult to stabilize the top eight in Asia in the short term. In the next three years, the men's national football team is facing a big competition including: the next year's local Asian Cup, 2024 Paris Olympic Games qualifiers, 2026 U.S., Canada and Mexico World Cup qualifiers. Paris Olympic Games soccer Asian team only three places, U23 national youth strength is not enough to complete the task, the national football team to complete the local Asian Cup of the old and new replacement of the "World Cup strategy" is crucial, and the Asian Games postponed, the U23 national football team will lose the most valuable stage of the actual battle.
Yankovic, the head coach of the U23 national football team, said that the team performed well in the Dubai Cup Invitational Tournament in the United Arab Emirates, which gave confidence to the coaching staff, and the players also hope to complete the Asian Games with more than the expected results of the "home report performance". Now the Asian Games is postponed, U23 national football team has only July East Asia Cup invitational tournament to continue the task. According to the reporter's understanding, the East Asia Cup to Japan, will be held from July 19 to 27, men's football teams including China, Hong Kong, China, Japan, South Korea, U23 national football team whether there are overage players to help, according to the Japanese team, South Korea to match the list of participants.
Compared with the same age rivals, the U23 national football team has lost a number of high-level competition opportunities: next month the U23 Asian Cup will be held in Uzbekistan, the U23 national football team has announced last year to give up the qualifying round, fans can only watch the highest level of Asia's U23 competitive arena as a spectator. The final round of 16 teams, including Japan, South Korea, Iran, Australia, Saudi Arabia and other first-grade teams, as well as Qatar, Jordan, Iraq, Kuwait, Thailand, Vietnam and other second-grade teams, the U23 national football team can not participate.
Therefore, U23 players in the loss of this year's U23 Asian Cup and the Asian Games stage helicopter after the national football team, may bring a series of chain reaction: next year's home Asian Cup can not afford to lose, but the "old for the new" process is not smooth, the national football team only rely on the journey convenience is not enough to achieve the participation goal, not to mention that the past experience shows that in the U23 Asian Cup and the Asian Games, the younger age group U21 players are usually used to join the competition. Asian Games, more planning and confidence in the team, usually will enable the younger age group of U21 players to join the competition. In the long run, China's men's national football team wants to "turn over the whole system" to become a strong team in Asia again, the initiative does not seem to be fully grasped in their own hands.
