On January 27, Beijing time, the 7th round of Group B in the Asian region of the World Preliminary Tournament, the Chinese men's football team lost 0-2 to the Japanese team, and did not qualify for the top two in the group, it can be said that the hope of qualifying for the World Cup has been ruined. The performance of the national football team is once again disappointing, such a result is unexpected, but it is also reasonable, after all, the Chinese men's football team has not won against the Japanese team for 24 years, and the Japanese team is not only a regular visitor to the World Cup, before this game, they ranked second in the group, the Chinese men's football team only ranked fifth in the group, and the gap between the two teams is obviously not a little bit.
In this game, Wu Lei as a player who stayed in the Ocean, his performance was disappointing again, it turned out that Wu Lei was really difficult to bring enough help to the Chinese men's football team in the world series, and he and Junya Ito, Daisuke Yongya and other Japanese stars still have a certain distance. Wu Lei played 87 minutes in this campaign, touched the ball 26 times, the pass success rate was 53%, SofaScore scored 5.9 points the lowest in the game; Daisuke Yong also played 58 minutes, the whole game data: 5 dribbling all successful, 6 wins the ground confrontation, the first point shooting record, SofaScore gave him a rating of 7.6 points, and Ito Junya's post-match rating was as high as 8 points, the first in the game.
Of course, the defeat was not Wu Lei's own ball, but as a Chinese star who plays at La Liga, the fans clearly pinned more hopes on him. This match shows that the gap between Chinese and Japanese football is all-round, whether it is in terms of consciousness technology or uniformity. In this way, the Chinese men's football team only defeated Vietnam once in the first 7 rounds, and the other games were either lost or drawn, and this game also made people see the importance of Luo Guofu, with Luo Guofu in it, China lost 0-1 to Japan in the last game, without Luo Guofu, the Chinese team was vulnerable, 0-2 fiasco.
This is Li Xiaopeng's first game in the new year, but also his first official game in charge of the national football team, for this defeat, Li Xiaopeng expressed his sincere apologies to the fans, he said that today the players have made all their efforts, and the responsibility for this defeat is borne by him. Compared with Li Tie, Li Xiaopeng's speech at the press conference is obviously more rational, but the Chinese men's football team wants a victory. This game also shows that the current situation of the Chinese men's football team is far from being as simple as changing the coach, and the most important thing is to find confidence and break the spell.
After the game, the comments of the official media "People's Daily" were also to the point, and the People's Daily posted: "The new coach who is in danger and the naturalized players who do not have the guarantee of normal training matches cannot quickly make up for the huge gap between the national football team and the first-class teams in Asia." We must accept the reality that the national football team may be dormant for a long time, but the rise must be based on the right direction and path. In the new year's day match against Vietnam, please let the fans see the progress. "Now, the most important thing for the national football team is to play well against Vietnam, as for the World Cup, forget about it."
The Chinese men's football team is not the first time to disappoint the fans, everyone has been poisoned, it is not strange. However, I hope that the players of the national football team can play their own characteristics, kick out the bloody nature of the Chinese boys, do their best, can not be artificial knife tricks, I am for fish meat, do not surrender before the start of the fight in the face of strong enemies.
