The Chinese men's football team has once again fallen in front of the stage of the World Preliminary Round, if it was still a step worse in the past, now it is completely hopeless, or it can only look at the World Cup from a distance. Of course, Chinese football's desire for the World Cup is no less than winning an Asian Cup, after all, the last time it stood on the highest stage of football was 20 years ago, and that year was jointly organized by Japan and South Korea, the pressure of qualifying in the Asian region was relatively small, the national football team finally waited for the opportunity, and now the top 12 matches, the strongest such as Lin, the national football team has fallen behind 4 rounds in advance.
When it comes to the World Cup, Chinese football also has its own plan, in the eyes of fans, how to rush out of Asia is the first step, and the performance in the World Cup can only be the second step. However, recently, an Italian reporter revealed a rather grand plan of the Football Association, in a conversation, the former national football coach Lippi revealed that when he became the manager of the Chinese men's football team, the Football Association told him that he hoped to win the World Cup championship in 2035. Lippi's answer to the world's No. 1 throne is very artistic, first of all, indicating that this goal is not simple, but also emphasizing his attitude and will do his best.
Lippi first signed a contract with the Chinese men's football team in 2016, and if you look forward to 2035, it should be a 20-year long-term plan. However, this statement may also be a boost to Lippi, after all, inviting the world's famous coaches to coach also increases the confidence of the Chinese men's football team. After the matter is also clear to everyone, Lippi mainly promoted the naturalization plan, in its view, the introduction of high-level athletes is the fastest way to improve strength, but after 2 years, Lippi may also see the results, even if the naturalized players joined, but the national football team is still listless, and even the performance is not as good as in the past, early loss of impact disappointment, at any time may become the deputy team leader.
Therefore, although there are still 13 years of time, but from the current performance, this goal is still out of reach, unless a miracle occurs, in the short term to complete the task of impacting the World Cup, the fastest will wait until 2026, the current Chinese naturalization retention possibility is greater, mainly depends on the role of local players, that is, the current level of 25 to 28 age group players, there are not many players who can take the hand in China, so it needs to be cultivated by the Football Association, and the outside world of course hopes that there will be a miracle. If the Chinese men's football team can really win the World Cup, I am afraid that the impact will be no less than hosting an Olympic Games.
