On January 13, the Chinese men's football team continued to train in Shanghai, and Liu Ruovan and Li Shuai, who participated in the Super League play-offs, returned to the team, and the two jogged back and did not participate in joint training. Zhu Chenjie was sick and absent, and Wu Xi, the captain of the national football team, revealed in an interview that the coaching staff had not yet made requirements for the players, and for the two games during the Spring Festival, Wu Xi bluntly said that as long as the spirit was played, the result would not be too bad.
The national football team began training on the 12th, and this time Li Xiaopeng recruited a total of 52 players, with the goal of dividing into two teams and conducting relatively regular warm-up matches to prepare for the World Preliminary Round of 12. The 5 naturalized players and Wu Lei and Li Lei will not participate in the Shanghai training camp, and they will ideally arrive directly in Japan. However, whether the naturalized players will arrive in Japan in time and their status is unknown.
The 16 internationals from The Tarzan and Harbor postponed their arrivals, and they will officially return on the 14th, with the coaching staff giving them three days to rest. Liu Ruovan and Li Shuai, who participated in the super league play-offs, met with the national football team after the end of the game and appeared on the training ground on the 13th, they jogged back and did not participate in the joint training. Zhu Chenjie continued to miss training due to illness, and the training lineup of the national football team was still uneven.
According to the arrangement of the national football team, after the arrival of the Taishan team and the harbor players, the national football team will be divided into two teams, and then on the 16th and 20th, two intra-team warm-up matches will be played, and after two games, Li Xiaopeng will determine the national football team list for Japan. Captain Wu Xi revealed in an interview that the coaching team has created an environment without any pressure on the whole team, and has not yet made a request with the whole team, and may wait for the personnel to arrive before saying some requirements.
This time the national football team is not only more players, but also many old international footballers, for which Wu Xi bluntly said that they are all role models, and they will also exchange and learn in training. For young people, Wu Xi hopes that they will be strict with themselves in training and show themselves on the stage of the national team. As for the next two World Preliminary Tournaments, Wu Xi also gave his own opinion: "I think I also read what Li Dao said, let everyone put down their baggage and go to the game, hoping that each team member will show themselves, do their best to play in a state, and play the spirit out, the result will not be too bad." ”
Under normal circumstances, the national football team will go to Japan on the 23rd to prepare for the match with the Japanese team on the 27th. On the 28th, the national football team went to Vietnam, and on February 1, the first day of the Chinese New Year against Vietnam, it is expected that the national football team can achieve relatively ideal results in two games during the Spring Festival.
