Last night! In the 7th round of the World Preliminary Round of 12 in the Asian Zone, the Chinese men's football team was defeated 0-2 by the opponent Japan team away from home, and was tragically killed by the Japanese men's football team. The Australian team in the same group won 4-0 against Vietnam, so that there were only 3 rounds of competition left in the round of 12, and the Chinese men's football team also lagged behind Australia, which was 9 points behind Australia, which was basically 3 rounds of early matches to announce the Chinese men's football team out, and did not qualify for the Qatar World Cup.
This game is the first game of the new coach Li Xiaopeng to lead the national football team, and Li Xiaopeng is this time to make a 5-3-2 defensive formation, it seems that this is basically similar to Li Tie's tactical thinking, are hoping to persist through defense for a period of time, and then make an impact in the second half of the game.
The idea is plump, but the reality is cruel, in the game, the Japanese team is to occupy the advantage of the field, and many times to create a threat, just in the 11th minute, Wang Shenchao in the penalty area appeared handball foul, the Japanese team won the penalty, the big force Yong also penalty kicked, the Japanese team took the lead in breaking the national football gate, early break will definitely make the morale of the national football team greatly reduced.
Looking back at the data of the two meetings between the national football team and the Japanese team, in the first battle, the Chinese men's football team lost 0-1, and the national football team was far behind the Japanese team with a gap of 28%-72% in the possession rate, and the number of shots was 2-14. In the second battle, the national football team was once again won by the Japanese team with a clean sheet, the possession rate was 36%-64% behind the opponent, and the number of shots on goal was 2-17 by the Japanese men's football team.
However, the gap between the national football team and the Japanese team can be seen from the list, and 13/4 players in the 23 big lists of the Japanese men's football team are from the European league, including many players from the five major leagues. In the Chinese men's football team, only Wu Lei is playing in the Europa League, and the rest of the players are playing in the Chinese Super League. As we all know, the Europa League is a place where the masters gather, and the players who can play in the Europa League have certain abilities.
There are many examples of the rise of weak football countries that tell us that if you want to improve the strength of the national team, you have to let the players go to a higher level of training, and now the strong strength of the national team is that there are no players playing in the Europa League, but this shortcut requires the Chinese Football Association to sink down and go one step at a time to achieve. To be honest, the national football team has not made much progress in these years, and the team that encounters the strong point is basically hanged.
Nowadays, the Chinese Football Association has gradually promoted players to play in Europe, a road that many countries have proved to be feasible, but it is also a difficult road that requires a long period of precipitation. At the same time, I hope that the fans can give the Football Association some time, and I also hope that Chinese football can usher in the day of the clouds as soon as possible.
