On December 3, the Chinese Football Association official announced that Li Tie was dismissed and replaced by excellent local coach Li Xiaopeng. With only the last 4 games left in the round of 12, the Football Association did not choose foreign coaches, but continued to choose local coaches to lead the team. Coincidentally, Li Xiaopeng and Li Tie were not only teammates of the national football team, but also Li Xiaopeng, like Li Tie, was also directly appointed to the national football team from the coaching position of the Wuhan team. However, as soon as Li Xiaopeng took office, Dong Lu spoke out to look down on Li Xiaopeng and pointed out a series of problems he had to face. Huang Jianxiang spoke out in support of Li Xiaopeng, and he believed that if he did not change the coach, I was afraid that the national football team would collapse.
After Lippi left office, the national football team chose to be replaced by local coach Li Tie to lead the national football team to the 2022 Qatar World Cup. As the best of the local managers, Li Tie's original appointment once made many people see hope. Li Tie also led the team to play well in the group stage of the World Preliminary Round, leading the national football team to the top twelve. However, in the round of 12, Li Tie led the team to poor results, only 1 victory in 6 games, the national football team ranked second to last, and it was only a matter of time before he was out. For a time, the voices of the outside world demanding that Li Tie leave class rose and fell.
And Li Tie did not make the situation the most rigid, and finally took the initiative to resign and leave, and the Chinese Football Association and Chen Shuyuan also accepted his resignation. According to the news previously reported by the media, Li Xiaopeng is most likely to succeed Li Tie. On December 3, the Chinese Football Association finally officially announced the selection of a new coach, and sure enough, Li Xiaopeng became the new manager of the national football team, and he will lead the national football team to the next 4 round of 12 matches. In fact, everyone is also very clear that at this time, Li Xiaopeng has been difficult to turn the tide, and what everyone hopes to see is that the national football team can play a different performance from the previous 6 games.
However, as soon as Li Xiaopeng took office, Dong Lu spoke out to look down on him. Dong Lu said that Li Xiaopeng will still face a series of problems, including whether there is a home field, whether there is a warm-up game, attack or defend, and a series of problems such as blind understanding and not understanding. It is not difficult to hear in his words that Dong Lu believes that it is of little significance to change Li Xiaopeng, and he will still face a series of practical problems like Li Tie at the beginning. It is not unusual for Dong Lu to show such an attitude, and he was still relatively supportive of Li Tie before. However, as soon as the new coach took office, Dong Lu threw out this series of questions, obviously not optimistic about Li Xiaopeng's future.
In stark contrast to Dong Lu's attitude is Huang Jianxiang, who speaks out in support of Li Xiaopeng. Huang Jianxiang believes that this is the SELF-correction of the Football Association, and it is better to make up for the dead than not to make up for it. Huang Jianxiang believes that if you do not correct the mistake and do not replace Li Tie, then you are afraid that the team will collapse. Huang Jianxiang also believes that it is impossible to change who is out of the line, but this is aimed at the future of the national football team, and at the same time, it is necessary to play dignity in the next four games. Huang Jianxiang posted a screenshot of his support for Li Xiaopeng as the manager of the national football team 2 years ago, and once again made his attitude clear: he supports Li Xiaopeng!
In fact, fans are also very clear that at this time, the use of Li Xiaopeng for Li Tie is more for future considerations, and the national football team is almost certain. Perhaps, we should give Li Xiaopeng more patience, so that he can have more time to transform the national football team, and look forward to the national football team having a good performance in the next game, come on!
