With the end of the Chinese Super League, the round of 12 will also be put back on the agenda, and the next match of the national football team will be officially launched on January 27, 2022 Beijing time, facing the Japanese national football team, which ranks second in strength in Asia and second in the group.
Now there are only more than 20 days left before the next game, and coupled with the fact that this is another away game, the team needs to go to Japan a few days in advance, so there is not much time left for Li Xiaopeng and the team to prepare.
On January 7, 2022, Beijing time, the national football team officially announced the latest edition of the training list, compared with before, there has been a significant increase in the number of people, as many as 52 people, including Yan Dinghao, Dai Weijun and other young rising stars. In terms of naturalized players, the national football team is called by Jiang Guangtai, Alan, Axon, Luo Guofu and Fernando, compared to the naturalized lineup of the previous top 12 matches, there is one more Fernando, the highly anticipated deep-footed "God Tower" Kaldek did not appear in the list, and Li Ke, who was absent due to injury, also did not appear in the training list, basically missing the next two round of 12 matches.
Although Fernando entered the training list this time, it is still unknown whether he can finally represent the national football team, after all, the Oriental Sports Daily has reported that Fernando and Li Ke cannot return to the national football team for the time being. To tell the truth, compared to several other naturalized strikers, Fernando is the most anticipated by fans, and even far more than Axon, Luo Guofu and others, first of all, in terms of age, Fernando is only 29 years old in March this year, which is the best stage of his career, compared to several other naturalized players over 30 years old and in a state decline, Fernando is more competitive.
Secondly, Fernando's speed advantage is very valuable for the national football team to play defensive counterattacks in many games, and he can form two more threatening wings with Wu Lei, and can also relieve some pressure for Wu Lei. However, these are based on the premise that Fernando can play for the national football team, since the last time he was injured in the training camp, Fernando has not yet determined the comeback time, fans can only see his dynamics on social media, and some time ago also posted photos of his own play. You know, Fernando is holding a salary of 160,000 yuan per day, if you just take the money and don't do it, it will definitely cause the dissatisfaction of the fans, hoping to see Fernando can come back from injury in the next game against Japan, thus making his debut in the national football team!
