With a ticket to the Asian Zone 12 tournament easily in hand, the Chinese team wasted no time in getting into an intense state of preparation. Even while enforcing quarantine measures in Suzhou

Nor put down the hands of the training, Li Tie coach is a series of days carefully planned a series of high-intensity training courses. This is precisely one of the two core strategies to prepare for the 12 strong match, because in this key data, the
national soccer team
There is a significant gulf between them and the top Asian teams.
In Li Tie's soccer tactical philosophy, physical fitness is regarded as the cornerstone, and can even be said to be the foundation of all tactics. This is not just because he was known as a "runner" during his time as a player, but because modern soccer is characterized by frequent offensive and defensive transitions, fast and variable rhythms, and an emphasis on simplicity and directness, which puts forward extremely high requirements for the physical quality of athletes. Li Tie expects his players to at least be on par with the top level in Asia in terms of physical fitness.
So how big is the gap? If we compare the data from the first five rounds of the first phase of the Chinese Super League (CSL) in Suzhou with that of the Japanese J-League in May, we will find that the CSL is significantly behind the Japanese J-League in the key indicator of sprint running (average speed of no less than 24 kilometers per hour).
On May 6, among the top five teams in the Japanese J-League with the most completed sprint runs, Yokohama Mariners led the way with 225, while Kashima Antlers, the lowest, had 188 as well. In comparison, on the Chinese Super League side, in the Suzhou Division, for example, Shanghai Seaport had the most sprint runs in the first round with 156, Changchun Yatai's 160 in the second round, and Shanghai Seaport in the third, fourth and fifth rounds, with 167, 193 and 140 respectively.
This shows that the top teams in the Chinese Super League can barely reach the level of the middle and lower level teams in the Japanese J-League when it comes to the crucial data of the soccer game. If other relevant data are analyzed in depth, the gap in the Chinese Super League will be even more significant. And when the foreign aid factor is removed, this gap is even more pronounced at the national team level.
Therefore, Li Tie in the training arrangements will always be the focus of physical fitness, at least in the "running" aspect, he wants to let the
national soccer team
As close as possible to the distance between the top level of Asia and Japan, South Korea, Australia and Iraq. The success of a soccer game often depends on the accumulation of "running", which Li Tie deeply felt.
In the upcoming Big 12 tournament, these hard indicators will undoubtedly be important for the
national soccer team
pose a greater test. According to the draw.

Will be in the same group with two of Japan, South Korea, Australia and Iran, the intensity of physical confrontation, speed competition and scrambling will be far more than the Philippines, Maldives, Guam and other teams.
Of course, the FA has a clear understanding of this. As a result, the FA has begun planning for

Arranging high-level warm-up matches, identifying problems through battle tests, and improving the players' ability to confront and resist pressure.The 12-team tournament will start in September, and the current preparation time is just over two months. If
