On March 10, Beijing time, the media reported on the main lineup of the national football team in the warm-up game of the previous day. Like Li Tie, Li Xiaopeng once again used Yu Dabao and Zhang Xizhe as the main force of the team. In the end, the national football team drew 1-1 with the Yatai team without Tan Long and without foreign aid in the warm-up match. Before that, when Li Tie's team faced the Chinese Super League team, it basically ended in a big victory.
There are two rounds of world preliminaries in the next round of the national football team, but they are only 2 points ahead of Vietnam. Once it suffers four consecutive defeats, the national football team is likely to become the bottom team in this group. This will also create the history of the national football team in the World Preliminary Round of 12 (Top 10).
In the previous World Preliminary Tournament, Yu Dabao and Zhang Xizhe had both appeared as main players, but the effect was poor.
In the match against the Australian team, Zhang Xizhe played well, but Yu Dabao was the player with the most mistakes in the back line. In the subsequent match with the Saudi team, Zhang Xizhe, who came on as a substitute, repeatedly missed the opportunity to counterattack with the ball, resulting in him being criticized by domestic fans. In the next game, the opponent of the national football team is the Saudi team.
And Yu Dabao is no longer magical, after becoming a defender, he has many mistakes and few goals.
Due to the poor performance, Li Tie basically gave up using these two players, but Li Xiaopeng gave them another chance.
Fans are unanimous on the return of both players. No one is optimistic about them, and the playing style of Coach Li Xiaopeng, who uses them as the main force, is also incomprehensible.
In the match with Changchun Yatai, a team that has entered the AFC Champions League, Li Xiaopeng actually uses three center-backs, and the three center-backs are Liu Yang, Yu Dabao and Zhu Chenjie. Players are either inexperienced or visibly less defensive.
The two main full-backs, Tong Lei and Gao Zhun wing, lacked speed, and Tong Lei also staged a kick to hit the sideline-like amateur players in the relegation play-off.
If such a lineup is against the Saudi team, there is basically no possibility of scoring points. If you don't get it right, a very passive scene against the Vietnamese team will appear again.
At present, many media people have revealed that in the next game, naturalized players may not be able to appear. The reason for this is that their "specialization" has been canceled. This means that Yu Dabao and Zhang Xizhe are likely to be the choice to replace Jiang Guangtai and Luo Guofu and others.
But in the previous competition, Li Tie has proved that the skills and mentality of these two players are no longer suitable for the current national football team. Li Xiaopeng's move is equivalent to driving backwards.
The above requirements for the national football team are the last 2 games, and there can be no collapse. At the same time, the team also needs to complete the rejuvenation.
But I did not expect that Li Xiaopeng's national football team was young, starting from middle players such as Wu Xi and Arthur Junmin, rather than directly taking down Zhang Xizhe and others whose playing style was very conservative.
According to post-match statistics, young player Duan Liu Yu only played more than 20 minutes in the game. Zhang Xizhe, who was in the same position as him, played 45 minutes in the first half.
In the match against the Vietnamese team, Li Xiaopeng gave Yu Dabao a long time. But even on the front line he was familiar with, his performance was mediocre. Neither seeing where it is better than naturalized players, nor lacking the ability to return to the ball.
In the next World Preliminary Round, the opponents of the national football team are the stronger Saudi Arabia and Oman. If the game ends with 4 consecutive defeats, Li Xiaopeng's coaching resume will become very ugly.
