I believe that many fans know that our national football level is now between the second and third-rate teams in Asia, and it is no longer a strong team in Asia. The results of the round of 12 have proved this point, we have lost to the first-class Australia, Japan and Saudi Arabia in Asia, drawn the second and third-rate Oman in Asia, and won the third-rate Vietnam. And not only the result of the game, but also in the course of the game, we also saw that our players have a big gap in the rhythm of the game, their individual ability, tactical understanding and execution. In fact, it can be summed up as a gap in strength.
The reasons for this gap are many, such as the national football team for more than ten years, we do not pay enough attention to youth training, resulting in less talent from youth training, resulting in the disconnection of football talents. For example, the core position of the league is completely occupied by foreign aid, local players are gradually marginalized, and finally local players will only play auxiliary and health football, and when they reach international competitions, they will not keep up with the rhythm, and the confrontation will not keep up, and the result is that it is difficult to achieve good results, and even bullied by some weak brigades.
Therefore, paying less attention to youth training and reducing the dependence on foreign aid in our league is a very urgent thing for Chinese football to ask for development. However, many fans will also have questions, can restricting the dependence on foreign aid really allow local players to rise, and can it really improve the level of Chinese football? For now, the answer should be yes. We can tell a simple example.
Everyone knows that the overall strength of our players is not competitive in Asia, but there is a position, the level of national football is still in the Asian fashion, that is, the goalkeeper position. As early as 20 years ago, our league banned the introduction of foreign goalkeepers, mainly to ensure the development of local goalkeepers. So all along our homegrown goalkeepers have had absolute chances in the league, which means they have enough time and space to develop. And with the opening of the Golden Yuan era, the big-name coaching team entered the Chinese Super League, which also greatly improved the training level of the Chinese Super League goalkeepers, so our training conditions and levels have long been in line with international standards. So we have a lot of excellent goalkeepers in the Chinese Super League, and when it comes to the national team, it is fiercely competitive.
For example, the main goalkeeper of the national team is Yan Junling, and Yan Junling's characteristics are like European goalkeepers, with height and long arms, and stable play. But our two-door king Dalei, the ability is also quite good. Wang Dalei is characterized by being more passionate, more aggressive, and often able to send assists with a qilin arm. And in the competition, Wang Dalei is emotional, always able to contribute to the divine poker, and can be a husband and wife! It can be said that these two goalkeepers, placed in Asia's first-class team Japan and South Korea Shay'ao are also the main goalkeeper candidates.
And what makes fans happiest is that there are many young goalkeepers on the rise in our league, such as a typical example of Han Jiaqi, a 22-year-old young goalkeeper who currently plays for Guangzhou City. In a recently concluded Match for the Chinese Super League Championship, he played well again, contributing as many as 6 saves in a single game, many of which were divine saves. It can be said that this young goalkeeper has the feeling of Wang Dalei, that is, the more powerful the opponent, the more excited he is and the better he performs.
In that match, Guangzhou City faced the changchun Yatai team. In the 23rd minute of the game, Yatai foreign aid Eric received a teammate's header in the penalty area and did not choose to shoot from close range, Han Jiaqi reacted quickly to move his position in advance and judged correctly and steadily held the ball.
In the 38th minute of the game, Yatai foreign aid Eric crossed near the bottom line, the national football forward Tan Long scored a close-range header, and Han Jiaqi contributed a magical save to save the ball out of the bottom line!
In the 41st minute of the game, Mao Kaiyu picked up the ball to the penalty area, Tan Long stopped the ball and volleyed, Han Jiaqi once again blocked the ball and took it.
In the 52nd minute of the game, Yatai made a two-on-one combination in the Guangzhou penalty area, and the low shot from outside the box by foreign assistant Eric once again held the ball steadily.
In the 56th minute of the game, Yatai player Dili Yimiti - land set-piece directly to the bottom left corner of the goal, Han Jiaqi pounced, failed to hold the ball, but the second reaction was fast, hit the ball in time, did not let the other side make up for the success.
In the 59th minute of the game, Captain Yatai launched a counterattack with a pass, and the forward Tan Long burst into the penalty area after receiving the ball, and suddenly cast a cold arrow on the right side of the penalty area, and Han Jiaqi was fully prepared to get the ball again.
It can be seen that Han Jiaqi's performance is very good, his door line technology is good, the range of activities is large, the second reaction is rapid, and he also has a strong psychological quality, which is definitely a good seedling of the door god. And after the game, the head coach of Guangzhou City said of Han Jiaqi, he said: "He is a very young goalkeeper, I am very happy that the team's goalkeeper coach and big brother Cheng Yuelei also gave him a lot of help, his recent performance on the field is also very good, he is very young, I believe that his future will definitely have a lot of room for growth." Of course, I think if he continues to learn from experience and grow hard, he has the ability to compete with players from other teams for places on the national team. It can be seen that even foreign teachers appreciate Han Jiaqi, which also proves Han Jiaqi's excellence.
However, although Han Jiaqi is excellent, there are many young goalkeepers in the league who are also very good, such as Bao Yaxiong of Hebei team, Chen Wei of Shanghai Harbor, etc. It can be said that in the future, the competition in the position of goalkeeper is still very fierce. Of course, what we hope more is that in addition to the goalkeeper position, our other positions can also be like this, the rise of local players, the beginning of fierce competition, so that the level of the national football team can really improve, what do you think?
