The new training of the national football team has come to the 6th day, after 6 days of "devil training", the national football team ushered in a warm-up game this afternoon, the opponent is the dark horse of the Chinese Super League last season, Changchun Yatai. In this game, the two sides finally shook hands in a 1-1 draw, and there were no surprises from the score. However, Li Xiaopeng's platoon arrangement in this game is still slightly interesting, and it can even be called a "surprise" for fans.
According to media reports, Li Xiaopeng lined up a 3-4-3 formation in this game. This also means that the last 2 World Cup matches of the national football team are likely to focus on defensive counterattacks to avoid collapse. More critically, Li Xiaopeng sent more young players in this game, and there was a large rotation in the first and second halves. According to the reporter, the starting list of the national football team is goalkeeper Liu Dianzuo, the three central guards Liu Yang, Yu Dabao, Zhu Chenjie, Gao Zhunyi and Tong Lei are separated to serve as wing-backs. Liao Lisheng and Jin Jingdao, two Shandong Taishan players, played as double backs, and Zhang Xizhe, Zhang Yuning and Dai Weijun played as 3 forwards.
In the second half, except for goalkeeper Liu Dianzuo, who was not replaced, all 10 other players went off. In its place were Zheng Zheng, Zhu Chenjie, Zhang Linpeng, Wang Shenchao, Ji Xiang, Gao Tianyi, Yan Dinghao, Duan Liuyu, Wei Shihao, and Liu Binbin. Attentive fans may have found that Wu Xi and Yan Junling, who have been criticized by fans, did not appear in the game, is it a bit of a surprise?
Regarding Wu Xi and Yan Junling, who did not appear in the game, the reason given by the media was that the physical condition was not suitable for the game. However, it is not excluded that Li Xiaopeng has begun to renew and focus on cultivating young players. According to reports, young players such as Yan Dinghao and Dai Weijun, who have attracted the attention of fans, have performed very brightly in this game.
We all know that after the national football team lost to Vietnam on the first day of the New Year, it may not even have a theoretical qualification. Therefore, in the next 2 games, fans would prefer to see more young players appear and speed up the pace of replacement. However, in recent days, a number of media have broken the news that there are relevant leaders who require that the last 2 games of the national football team cannot collapse. As a result, some fans are worried that Li Xiaopeng will continue to send a group of old players. Now it seems that Li Xiaopeng intends to help the young players.
If, in the next 2 World Preliminary Tournaments, Li Xiaopeng can reuse young players and take young players as the main framework. Then, even if you lose, I believe you can get the recognition of the fans.
