The Chinese national football team is about to face the strong opponent Saudi Arabia in the Round of 12 of the World Preliminary Round. For the Chinese national football team, this will be a battle of honor; for Saudi Arabia, it will be a key battle for qualifying. What makes people feel ironic is that in a recent report involving the national football team, a Saudi media actually mistook Li Tie as the current national football coach Li Xiaopeng, making a big oolong.
Arriyadiyah, a well-known Saudi media, pointed out when reporting on the national football team: "For The Chinese national football coach Li Xiaopeng, the Saudi team has always been an obstacle for him. This will be the first time Li Xiaopeng has faced a Saudi team as a coach and the third time in his entire career. As a player, Li Xiaopeng once represented Shandong Luneng against the Etihad in the AFC Champions League and scored a goal to help the team draw with the Etihad. ”
The other time was to represent the Chinese national football team, when the head coach of the Chinese team was still Milu, and finally in that match, Saudi Arabia beat the Chinese team 2-0. Throughout his international career, Li Xiaopeng made more than 30 appearances for China. Saudi media said.
Although it seems to be very familiar with Li Xiaopeng's information, it is surprising that "Arriyadiyah" actually introduces Li Xiaopeng with a photo of former national football coach Li Tie, and is listed alongside Saudi coach Renard. Obviously, despite the headlines in the report, the Saudis don't even know the national football coach, and can even commit strange operations that even get the photos wrong.
There is less and less time for the national football team to "fight" with Saudi Arabia, and I hope that the team led by Li Xiaopeng will be able to play its best in front of the strong enemy and strive to make the opponent "remember" himself this time.
