On October 5th, two outstanding Chinese women's soccer players, Shen Mengyu and Zhang Linyan, set sail from Shanghai and embarked on a journey to London, England. They will join English Premier League powerhouse Tottenham Hotspur and Scottish Premier League giants Celtic, respectively, to build up momentum for the new professional league season. Right behind them, fellow Chinese women's soccer international Li Mengwen, who plays for Brighton in the English Premier League, is also about to depart on her EPL journey. Even so, with Wang Frost and other elites leading the way, the Chinese women's soccer team is still confident that it is capable of challenging Uzbekistan and striving to win a silver medal in the Hangzhou Asian Games women's soccer tournament.
A reporter from the Beijing Youth Daily revealed that after the women's soccer semifinal match against Japan at the Hangzhou Asian Games came to an end, the Soviet Union's Super Celtic, English Premier League's Tottenham Hotspur, and Brighton Hotspur and Brighton FC all sent applications to the Chinese women's soccer team through the CFA for the recall of Shen Mengyu, Zhang Linyan, and Li Mengywen.
After much deliberation, the Chinese women's soccer coaching team approved the requests of the three clubs. As a result, Zhang Linyan and Shen Mengyu departed from Shanghai for England on the morning of October 5, while Li Mengwen departed the following day.
The new USSR Premier Women's Soccer League season is in its eighth round, according to the schedule. Celtic Women's Football Team is temporarily in second place in the table, just one point behind the round leaders. They will host Glasgow City, currently third in the USSR Premier League table, on the evening of October 5th.
The new Premier League Women's Soccer season kicks off on October 1, with Tottenham Hotspur Women's Soccer Team taking on Bristol Women's Soccer Team in the second round of the tournament on October 8, while Brighton Women's Soccer Team will host West Ham Women's Soccer Team. The coaching teams of both Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton Ladies are looking forward to the return of Zhang Linyan and Li Mengwen in time to get a head start on the new Premier League season.
With the departure of three national team players who left the team early, China's women's soccer team is now left with only two stay-at-home players, Wang Frost and Uzhigumura. However, the Chinese women's soccer team's opponent in the bronze medal match at the Hangzhou Asian Games, Uzbekistan, was relatively weak. In the group stage, the Chinese women's soccer team beat their opponents by 6 goals, and even with the absence of many overseas players, the Chinese women's soccer team is still expected to beat their opponents and win the bronze medal.
