The Chinese men's football team lost 1-3 to the Vietnamese team in the round of 12, which became a lingering pain for many fans, and it was also another humiliating night of Chinese football, which also fulfilled Fan Zhiyi's previous prediction that after losing Thailand, it would lose to Vietnam, and then the national football team would lose to Myanmar. Today, another "fish belly team" has risen, which is Known as one of the least developed countries in the world, Laos U23 beat Malaysia in the latest Southeast Asian U23 Championship, which has attracted the attention of Asian football!
As we all know, the strongest national youth team in Chinese history is the 85 national youth team, when this team participated in the World Youth Championship in the Netherlands under the leadership of German coach Clauschen, and this team achieved a brilliant record of 3 wins in the group stage, defeating Turkey, Ukraine and Panama 3 teams, and only losing to Germany by a score of 2-3 in the quarter-finals. That team also cultivated excellent international players such as Arthur Junmin, Dong Fangzhuo, feng Xiaoting and so on for the national football team! What people did not expect was that this foreign teacher of the national youth had become the leader of the rise of Laos!
The Laos U23 national team changed its head coach in December last year, when Klauchen took over the Laos U23 national team as assistant coach of the Chinese national youth team, and this Southeast Asian U23 Championship was the debut of Weiss to coach the Laos U23. Amazingly, facing the Southeast Asian football powerhouse Malaysia, the unknown Laos team defeated the opponent 2-1 in the first leg of the match between the two sides, breaking a huge unpopular goal, which is also a humiliating moment in the history of Malaysian football!
There is no doubt that if the coaching staff of the Chinese national youth team can get more attention from the Chinese Football Association, perhaps the youth training of Chinese football can also be developed in the long run, and the coaching team based on foreign teachers such as Klauchen and Weiss has proved their coaching ability at the 2005 World Youth Championship in the Netherlands. However, Clauschen has left, and even his assistant coach Weiss has made a name for himself in the Laos U23 national team, allowing the team's youth team to prove its rise in Asian football!
Many people can't help but sigh that the Lao team may also become an important opponent of the Chinese men's football team in the Asian arena in the future, and even become the next Vietnamese team, if the national football team can not improve its strength as soon as possible and increase the investment in youth training, there will really not be many "weak teams" left for the Chinese team in the Asian arena! I have to say that in the context of the rapid improvement of football in other Asian countries, the Football Association really needs to think about the future development of Chinese football, and don't let the excellent coaches who originally belonged to us become the opponents of Chinese football in the future!
