Near the Spring Festival, the national football team began a new journey, but it still brought a bad news, twice facing Japan, 0-2 miserable, only 2 shots on goal, a corner, the possession rate of 36%, was completely "breathless" by Japan. However, for the new coach Li Xiaopeng, it is still worth looking forward to, from the following two points of analysis.

First of all, this national football team lost very badly, although the whole game has no ability to fight back, but you can see the change of Li Xiaopeng's guidance, and the attitude is worthy of recognition. Compared with the first confrontation, Li Xiaopeng chose to defend in the first half, and chose to let go in the second half, but it was a pity that Wang Shenchao's fatal handball in the first half was very demoralizing, and in the second half, when he chose to attack the banner in a big way, the Japanese team had a corner, and the two national football teams defended "distracted", directly broken the net by the header, which was also very demoralizing. From the basic data, the number of shots and corners is the same as the previous game, but compared with the previous game's 28% possession rate, there is an increase.
Secondly, in an interview after the game, Li Xiaopeng and Li Tie have essential differences, he is very clear about his positioning, and the answers to 5 questions can be said to be very standard. The first was the game summary, he said: "All the players today have done their best, the timing of the two goals conceded has a very big impact on the overall rhythm of the game, I am fully responsible for the loss of the whole game, very sorry. The second is the evaluation of the gap between the two sides, he bluntly said that this score is really normal, if the national football team is lucky, there may be some chances, if Japan is lucky, the score will be expanded.
The third is about what kind of mentality to face the remaining games after the prospects of the national football team are dim. Li Xiaopeng said that he would always make 200% preparations and efforts. The fourth is the pre-match planning of this game, Li Xiaopeng said bluntly: Because the Chinese team has not played for a long time, we are ready to use 20 minutes to 30 minutes to adapt to the rhythm of the Japanese team. But relatively speaking, the overall effect is not particularly good. The final question is how to look at Japan's weaknesses, Li Xiaopeng said: After research, he believes that his two wings are an area where we may create opportunities. But Japan's high pressure has made the national football team have no strength to fight back.
I have to say that Li Xiaopeng did not escape after the game, nor did he say too many "polite words", it can be seen that he is still very pragmatic and worth watching a few more games.
In the first time after the game, the People's Daily also gave a sharp comment, believing that the new coach who was in danger and the naturalized players who did not have normal training guarantees could not quickly make up for the huge gap with the first-class teams in Asia. To put it bluntly, it is difficult to change this national football team too much, mistakes are repeated, after half- can not see the ball, really no move. Of course, disappointment to disappointment, anger to anger, every national football game, we still have some expectations, and a request put forward by the People's Daily is fully in line with the voice of the fans, writing: The game with the Vietnamese team on the first day of the New Year, please let the fans see the progress.
Looking forward to the next one, new year's day, we will meet again.
