At present, the national football team is preparing for the next 2 round of 12 matches, although in essence, these 2 games have no substantive significance for the national football team, because it is impossible to qualify, but some of the things and meanings involved in this may be "far beyond" the results themselves. Recently, some media reported that the requirements given to the national football team by the relevant departments are that these 2 games cannot be defeated in a row, because such a result will be unprecedented and fatal to the environmental impact of domestic football.
For the national football team, this time the 2 opponents Saudi Arabia and Oman are theoretically the objects that can be won points, although in the first round we did not take advantage of such opponents, but compared to the relatively strong Japan and Australia, it is still possible for the national football team to get points on these 2 teams.
As the media said, scoring points is not only a matter of face, but also related to the general environment of domestic football. In the last stage of the round of 12, the national football team has lost 2 games, if the loss to the Japanese team is acceptable, then the loss to the Vietnam team is a historical level of shame. Although Saudi Arabia and Oman may not be as special to the Chinese team as the Vietnamese team, and they are also stronger, according to the current bad level of the national football team, even if it is reasonable to lose. However, in the eyes of the relevant departments, such a result is absolutely impermissible, and once this happens, it means that the national football team has lost 4 consecutive games in the last 4 round of 12 matches, which is really a very bad situation.
On the other hand, in fact, although the domestic media and fans' public opinion environment are more critical of the national football team, because they may have died for this team, once they have a good performance in these 2 games, it is also very helpful to save a certain reputation and improve the domestic football environment. For the national football team, these 2 games should strive to win at least one game, especially Oman, in fact, before the start of the round of 12, this team is the opponent who can get points in the national football plan. The second is that the national football team should show a positive attitude, our team level itself is very poor, if the attitude continues to put on an indifferent posture, then such a situation is really not tolerated, try to get the victory and scores, show a good mental state and fighting spirit on the pitch, this is the real task of the national football team in these 2 games. For fans and the media, this bad team has such a performance, in fact, it can already be basically satisfied.
In the 8 games of the round of 12 that have ended, the national football team has a record of 1 win, 2 draws and 5 losses, and it has been determined in advance that it is impossible to qualify, of which 4 away games have all lost (including a neutral away game), the only winning opponent is still weak Vietnam, the score is still difficult 3-2, but the national football team lost to this opponent in the second leg. That is to say, in fact, the current national football team is not sure of getting points when facing any opponent, and it is indeed not easy to expect such a team to get points or even victories from Saudi Arabia and Oman.
But in any case, the national football players should still "know the shame", if they continue the previous sluggish state and the spirit of the game, then do not blame the fans and the media to continue to rage.
