This is a predictable process and result, and the national football team visiting Japan has no possibility of creating a miracle - after a 0-2 game, the national football team has only 5 points after playing 7 games.
With the last three games left, the national football team is nine points behind third-place Australia and 15 goals on goal difference, and it can be said that it has bid farewell to the 2022 World Cup in advance.
Of course, the day of complete exit, the biggest probability is still the first day of the New Year, when the national football team will be a guest against Vietnam.
Although the result of the final exit has been irretrievable, can the national football team refuse to add to the block on the first day of the Chinese New Year? This is the task that Li Xiaopeng and his team need to complete.
The problem of national football is not something that can be solved by changing a coach.
Changing the coach is like changing the knife? inexistent
In this period of national football, the biggest change is the replacement of the head coach.
For the alternation between Li Xiaopeng and Li Tie, until now, the consensus between the industry and Li Xiaopeng is that Li Xiaopeng's emotional intelligence is higher than That of Li Tie, and as for the business level, it is at most half a pound to eight two.
Li Tie spent 6 games, basically adapting himself and the team to the rhythm and intensity of the round of 12. After Li Xiaopeng took office, it was clear from the match against Japan that he still needed a certain amount of time to find the direction.
The starting lineup of the national football team 4-2-3-1 is a common formation of Chinese Super League teams, but in the choice of specific personnel positions, Li Xiaopeng's decision is obviously debatable - arranging zheng zheng and arthur Junmin two veterans to form a left road, against the biggest explosive point on the right side of the Japanese team, Junya Ito, and finally Jun Ito also created a penalty, and also scored with a header...
Li Xiaopeng's defensive arrangements for the opponent's most critical players were failures.
In the starting lineup of the national football team, at least 4 players appeared in positions that they were not good at - Zheng Zheng, who transformed the center back of the club, appeared in the position of full-back, Arthur Junmin, who had long changed to an organized midfielder, was placed in the full-back position, Wu Xi, who has been playing in the center-back, played the front waist, and Wang Shenchao, who was better at playing full-back, was arranged to play the back...
Even Soccer Manager gamers know that so many players should never be allowed to play in a position they are not the best at in a single game.
Because he has been a substitute in La Liga, Wu Lei's state is also more worrying.
Offense, no highlights
Of course, just like allowing Li Tie to slowly adapt to the opening stage of the round of 12, it does not make much sense to blame Li Xiaopeng too much now, in terms of level, not only are Chinese players lagging behind Japanese players, in the category of head coaches, whether it is Li Tie or Li Xiaopeng, I am afraid that the coaching level is also inferior to Mori Baoichi, who has been criticized by the Japanese media.
On the stage of the top 12 competition, the ceiling of domestic coaches in recent years is high and Hongbo are helpless, and Li Tie and Li Xiaopeng naturally have to make mistakes.
Similarly, the offensive end of the national football team in this game can also be said to have no bright spots.
There were no shots on goal in the entire first half, and the first shot of the game came from a long-range free kick by Wei Shihao, who came off the bench. After the game, technical statistics show that the national football team has 2 shots on goal, but Wu Xi's back-plugged long-range shot should be an invalid shot, before jiang Guangtai who grabbed the point in the penalty area has already fouled, in fact, the national football team only has 1 shot in the whole game.
Corner kick 1-11, possession rate of 37% -63%, in terms of attack, it is not clear what Li Xiaopeng's specific requirements or technical and tactical deployment are in this game.
Japanese players rounded up Zhang Yuning.
If you fall behind, you will be beaten
Compared with the last game against Japan, the process to the result is basically the same, there are not many highlights in the attack, the whole game is passively beaten, the only difference is that the result changed from 0-1 to 0-2.
But this is still acceptable - with the current situation of Chinese and Japanese football, as long as it has not been played out of the tragedy, it seems that too many faults cannot be picked out.
However, from the mid-1990s of the last century can still win Japan casually, to the current 25 years of official competition can not beat Japan, the comparison of Chinese and Japanese football in the last thirty years - in short, we ignored "football from the doll", did not recognize that "development is the last word", and eventually led to the current situation of "backward to be beaten".
For Chinese football, japan is a bit far away now, let's face it – the next game away to Vietnam.
Considering that Vietnam's 1995 golden generation is in the year of fighting, even if the group "double kills" Vietnam is not an easy goal for the national football team.
In the first game in Sharjah, the national football team won the first game of the round of 12 by relying on Wu Lei's injury time kill to win 3-2. But in that game, Vietnam has not lost to the national football team at all in terms of individual technology and the use of overall team skills and tactics.
The Chinese team was able to win in the end, and the advantage of personal body still played a very key role, but whether it could win again on the road with the same advantage, in fact, the Chinese team was not too sure.
The national footballer left the field lonely.
Against Vietnam, can you refuse to add to the blockage?
If the Chinese team wants to win over Vietnam, why doesn't the Vietnamese team want to win the first victory in the round of 12?
As the only team out of 12 to lose, Vietnam has clearly placed the home game against China in a very important position.
This round of visits to Australia, the Vietnamese team also rotated two or three main players, after falling behind 0-2 in the half, they no longer desperately tried, and the meaning of retaining strength for China on the first day of the New Year is very clear.
Of course, no matter what, for the Chinese team, there is really no room for mistakes against Vietnam - Li Xiaopeng was interviewed by the media on the first day of the Shanghai training camp, and he clearly put forward the goal of not adding to the fans during the New Year, which is actually the game against Vietnam.
The Chinese Football Association and the coaching staff eventually called back several naturalized players, and the goal was also to fight Vietnam. The coaching staff hopes that through training, naturalized players who have not had official training matches for two or three months can regain a certain state before playing against Vietnam.
After playing the match with the Japanese team, the Chinese team general was also full of expectations for the match with Vietnam, and the captain Wu Xi said: "Tomorrow is going to Vietnam, it is going to be the New Year, and I hope to dedicate victory to the fans." ”
Li Xiaopeng said: "The national team will go all out in every game and treat the next game with 200% effort. ”
