On March 10th, in the springtime of Beijing, a piece of news spread quickly in the circle of Beijing Guoan fans - Guoan team officially announced the new progress of the team's preparation for the war. Yesterday, the team assembled in full force, and the main right back Wang Gang returned strongly after recovering from injury, injecting a shot in the arm for the team's preparation.
After a short break, Guoan's first-team assembled again in Shanghai to start the crucial second phase of preparation for the new season. It is worth mentioning that Wang Gang, who was previously absent due to a fractured right arm, has fully recovered and actively requested to join the training. In today's training, Gang performed quite well and actively participated in the group confrontation.
Before the training, coach Xie Feng personally led the whole team to warmly welcome the return of Gang. The training in Shanghai was conducted in the mode of "two drills a day", the training volume was significantly increased compared to the first phase, and the intensity was also more severe.
Today's training, for example, involved nearly an hour and a half of aerobic running in the morning, supplemented by simple snatch-and-run drills. But that was just the prelude to the day's training. In the afternoon, there was a two-hour-long high-intensity confrontation training session, in which the players simulated various scenarios that might occur in the game in nearly two hours of group confrontation. The coaching staff kept making requests from the sidelines, with Director Xie's voice being the loudest: "Control the ball, find openings, and shoot more!"
After two hours of intense training, data analysis showed that the players ran 1.5 times the distance per capita of a normal game, and the data for high-intensity sprint runs set a new record.
In the next three days, Beijing Guoan team will continue to maintain the high-intensity training rhythm of two practices a day. At this stage, the team will also conduct a number of teaching matches to test the results of training and hone their skills and tactics.
