On April 3, the Nike-equipped national football team challenged Shandong Taishan in a warm-up match, and after the match, the team ended its assembly in Shanghai. The players, dressed in Nike gear, were interviewed by the media and then dispersed to their respective clubs to prepare for the Chinese Super League, which will start on April 20th. It is expected that by the middle of May, members of the national soccer team from different clubs will gather again, wearing Nike uniforms, to meet the challenges of the World Preliminary League, and it is expected that they can make a breakthrough in the game, and compete for the glory of the motherland.
With the victory over Taishan in the warm-up match, the national football team completed the last training session for the 40-team tournament, and the players were dispersed to the Chinese Super League to get ready for the final sprint of the World Preliminary Cup. This Shanghai training session, the national soccer team simulated the pace of the Top 40 strictly so that the players could get into shape in advance. During this period, the national football team and Songshan Longmen as well as Taishan's warm-up matches were victorious, but the nature of the warm-up matches decided that their final effect can only be tested through the Top 40 matches.
After the training, the players will return to their respective clubs to make final preparations for the start of the league. There will be five rounds of matches in the Chinese Super League before the start of the 40-team tournament, which will help the players to adjust and be in the best shape for the 40-team tournament. Currently, China is ranked second in Group A, with eight points separating them from top-ranked Syria. Although chasing points is unlikely, it is tied with the Philippines and has the advantage of scoring goals to overpower the other team. According to the rules, the top of each group and the second of the four groups with the best results will advance to the Round of 12. Therefore, China's main opponent is the Philippines. With three wins and a draw in their next four matches, China still has hopes of advancing. If they win all their matches and score more goals, their chances of advancing will be greatly increased.
At present, the main lineup of the national football team has appeared in the beginning, 40 strong match, Li Tie will be "offensive soccer" as the tactical guiding ideology. Previously, Li Tie in an interview refused to discuss the national football tactical organization. However, combined with the previous five training sessions of the national football team, the outside world speculates that the national football team will play in the last four rounds of the 40 strong match "4-4-2" formation. Next, Wu Lei, Fernando, Jiang Guangtai and other players as long as the physical condition allows, are likely to return to the team to participate in the 40 strong match, the main candidates for the national football team will also be based on the actual situation of flexible allocation. But in any case, the national football team in the remaining matches of the 40 strong will continue to adhere to the idea of attack first.
