Late in the night of November 11th, China and Oman shook hands with a score of 1-1 in the 5th round of the 12-team tournament, failing to realize their wish of winning all three points. However, as the halfway point of the tournament came to an end, the Chinese team still harbored the hope of qualifying, and the whole team did not waver in their confidence and determination to work hard. 12 night, the team returned to the training ground and began regular training. In the previous days, the Chinese team's staff had been sweating on the field as usual. The players seemed to have gotten over the regret of last night, and the only thing on their minds was to get ready for the next round of matches against Australia.
As both the Sharjah Stadium where the Sino-Arab match was played and the Khalid bin Mohammed Stadium where the national football team previously trained needed to be used for other events, the Chinese team's training on the night of the 12th was arranged to take place in the exclusive training ground of the Sharjah club. Unlike the past, when players stayed at the hotel the next day after the match to resume training, except for goalkeeper Wang Dalei, who stayed at the hotel due to ill health, all the other players appeared at the training site on the same day. Head coach Li Tie spoke briefly to the international players after some individual exchanges with naturalized player Alan. The starters then went through a recovery session under the guidance of fitness coach Adrian Lamb, none of whom wore spikes, meaning they would not be training at a high intensity. Substitutes Artemisia Junmin and Wu Xinghan, as well as players who were not on the pitch, carried out other technical and tactical training together with relatively high intensity. Naturalized player Luo Guofu, who was reportedly injured in the Oman game, arrived with the team but sat on the sidelines since the start of training. However, feedback from the team indicates that Lok Kwok Fu's injury is not serious and he will not miss the match against Australia. Inside the training ground, a huge banner stood out. It reads "Kings Never Give Up", with a strong inspirational color. It is understood that the owner of the training ground, Sharjah FC, has not performed well in the UAE League recently, but with the former Chinese Super League boss Ola Lajoieu of Jiangsu taking over the team, the club has high hopes for the team's performance. Such an inspirational atmosphere is of great relevance to the Chinese team. Although the Chinese team unfortunately drew with Oman in the match a day earlier, judging from the course of the match, the Chinese team is fully capable of defeating their opponents. The Chinese team also needs to quickly come out from the negative emotions. It was revealed that the delegation staff continued to play soccer on the field before the start of the training, which to a certain extent also provided positive psychological hints for the preparation of the Chinese team managers, reminding them not to indulge in the regret of past matches, but to go all out to meet the next challenges. From the training situation, both the manager Li Tie, and the majority of international players, appear to be very normal, training in a positive atmosphere.
