The round of 12 is about to start, the Chinese men's football team against the Saudi men's football team, after successive losses, the Chinese team is currently out, no chance of the World Cup, and Saudi Arabia temporarily ranked first in the group, the national football coach Li Xiaopeng said that this game is for China's face, for dignity.
China's first 8 rounds of achievements for 1 win, 2 draws and 5 losses, points for 5 points, ranked fifth in Group B, the last round of 1-3 defeat to Vietnam, the Chinese men's football team completely failed to qualify for the World Cup finals, in this year's two games, the Chinese men's football team did not win, the last 5 games 2 draws and 3 losses, if the game against Saudi Arabia continues to lose, then the Chinese men's football team is likely to be surpassed by Vietnam, becoming the bottom of the group, the men's football team this time to the game there are 24 players, Wu Xi because of the accumulation of 2 yellow cards, was suspended one, so he can not participate in this game Li Lei was absent due to injury, and the four players who had been naturalized before, Alain, Luo Guofu, Axon and Fernando, had not been able to participate in this game because they had not trained with the national football team.
After the training of the Chinese men's football team, head coach Li Xiaopeng was interviewed, he said: "Against saudi Arabia is a difficult game, the opponent is stronger than our strength, so we must go all out, the players train very hard, the state of all aspects have been greatly improved, we will not give up the attack because of the lack of front, offensive and defensive ends we have to show our training results, show the best level.
The opponent wants to win, I also hope that we can win, so in the use of personnel, I must first choose some tough players, to use the players who fight to the end and Saudi Arabia, we must play the strong willpower of our team, this is my minimum requirement for the team, although we still lost the opportunity to qualify for the World Cup, but this game is for the dignity of Chinese football, but also for the face of Chinese football, which is also the words I have been stressing to the players the most recently. Hopefully we can show our strength in the game.
From Li Xiaopeng's words, we can obviously feel that he attaches great importance to this game, and has been regarded as the honor battle of our national football team, but it is indeed difficult to defeat the Saudi team, after all, we are far from their strength, plus a number of naturalized players and core players can not participate, which makes our national football team worse, but as long as they can play a tough attitude, I believe that the fans will be able to forgive them, breaking the boat, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu, win or lose, but we must come up with the momentum that should be there.
Former Chinese football player Li Yi, also expressed his views on the national football game, he said: I hope that the men's football team can fight for honor, fight for all football practitioners, the current Chinese football environment is very poor, fans and everyone hope to see the spirit of the national football team, against the Saudi Arabia game, please all the players and coaches, I please you, you are the leader of the industry, you have to fight for everyone in this industry, the industry needs to raise its eyebrows.
Whether it is the emperor Li Yi or Li Xiaopeng, they all expressed their expectations and hopes for the national football team, as a fan, I hope that the national football team can play with spirit and show the spirit of hard work.
