Round of 12
Who does it for Wu Xi?
On the evening of March 21, local time in the United Arab Emirates, the Chinese men's national football team continued to train at the Khalid Bin Mohammed Stadium in the training base of Sharjah Club, which was also the penultimate training class before the Sino-Saudi Arabia match on the 24th, and all 24 players practiced on the occasion.
Unlike the previous day when the official competition venue training at the Sharjah Stadium was fully open, the training on the 21st was still the same as before, but it was open to the media for the first 15 minutes. After the start of the national football training, it was still a regular circle grabbing activity, followed by long passing practice. Obviously, this is also a training subject that is targeted according to the situation that may occur in future competitions. Due to the overall strength of the Saudi team, it is likely to firmly grasp the possession in the game, in this case, the national football team needs to launch a long-pass counterattack in the process of switching from defense to attack. Therefore, the practice of arranging long passes before the game is obviously also targeted.
As for the training after the closure, it is mainly based on technical and tactical content, and also arranged team confrontations, the coaching team is still observing the combination of personnel, and then specially arranged set-piece exercises. Judging from the overall training situation, it should be said that the national football team is currently preparing for the battle in an orderly manner in accordance with the established plan and strategy. Although Li Lei was absent due to injury, the national football team did not temporarily transfer players from the U23 national football team, and because the captain Wu Xi was suspended for accumulating yellow cards, the current 24 people except Wu Xi, the other 23 people will successfully enter the registration list of the Battle of Zhongsha.
To some extent, for the current Chinese team, everything is normal in fact, it is the biggest benefit. Of course, the coaching staff of the national football team is also thinking about the combination of personnel in the midfield, especially who will replace Wu Xi, who is suspended. In the case of the initial selection of the national football team to play in the 343 formation, xu xin, Liao Lisheng, Jin Jingdao and other three people will appear in the middle of the midfield, not surprisingly. In the teaching competition in Haikou, the coaching staff successively arranged Xu Xin and Liao Lisheng to start together, but this does not mean that the two combinations will also appear in the battle of China and Saudi Arabia, after all, Liao Lisheng has never played for the national team before. Although the outcome of the Sino-Saudi battle is not of great significance to the Chinese team, it is still very important for the Saudi team, and the national football team does not want to let the opponent easily take 3 points from himself. So in recent days of training, the coaching staff has been constantly changing people in these two positions, just to find the best combination.
According to the plan, the national football team will study and analyze the opponent's game video today, and continue to arrange normal training at 18:30 in the evening.
