China's national football team drew 1-1 with Saudi Arabia, which for many people is a small "cold door". After all, before the game, in the face of the national football team that went out of the remnants, everyone's idea was that as long as it did not "collapse", and the national football team not only ensured that it did not collapse this time, but also retreated in front of the powerful Saudis. Compared with the final score, in fact, the "spirit" shown by the national football team on the field is more impressive; and the performance of several rookies seems to let us see the hope of the future national football team.
The national football team kicked out the long-lost "bloody"
If you follow the post-match rating given by the data statistics website, the best player in the national football team is Zhu Chenjie, who scored a penalty, and the worst performer is the starting left forward Liu Binbin. However, whether it is Zhu Chenjie or Liu Binbin, no matter what their personal ability and state shown in this game, we cannot deny one thing: each of them is very hard. In terms of the attitude towards the game, almost every player in this game of the national football team is blameless.
Like Liu Binbin, who scored the lowest after the game, you can say that he often loses position, and the offensive end cannot break through with the ball to create a threat, but you will definitely not say that he does not fight. As an offensive player, Liu Binbin actually retreated deeply most of the time, forming a protection for left-back Liu Yang, which made him almost in the first half of the state of physical exhaustion.
Another example is Zhang Linpeng, although there are two low-level mistakes, but when he drags his already slightly old legs around to fill in the loopholes, and several times he fights with Saudi offensive players, we will never doubt the attitude of these players.
We must not forget Zhang Yuning, who is almost the most tired player in the whole game of the national football team. Nominally the "single arrow" of the team, but Zhang Yuning is almost like a "scavenger" installed by the national football team on the front line many times, when the team defends, he has to push the Saudi players at the first time, and when attacking, he has to pull in a horizontal and wide range, and often be specially "taken care of" by Saudi defenders. Even though Li Xiaopeng has been given too many tasks, when we saw Zhang Yuning fight for the national football team for a sideline ball and under the interception of several Saudi players, a long-lost bloodiness of the national football team seemed to appear in front of our eyes again.
To some extent, today's Chinese fans can tolerate that the technology of the national football players is not delicate enough and the tactical concept is not advanced enough, but they will definitely not tolerate the players "not fighting". After all, if you want to improve your skills and tactics overnight, you can only find a balance from the aspect of "spirit and spirit". In this match with Saudi Arabia, the national footballer has almost exhausted all his energy to prove to the fans: I am fighting hard, and the fight again and again, the long distance back to run is proof. Because of this, even if the hard power of the national football team and Saudi Arabia have a huge gap visible to the naked eye, this draw has still received a considerable number of fans and public opinion, which is obviously the best reward for the players' fighting spirit.
Zhang Yuning's goal was invalid
Four rookies are worthy of value
In addition to requiring the team to play "bloody", the national football team has another task in this game, that is, to examine new people as much as possible. For the national football coach Li Xiaopeng, in the case of no hope of qualifying, it is a natural choice to investigate some materials for the national team as much as possible; coupled with the national football team's personnel in West Asia this time are incomplete, and many core players are absent, so whether it is out of intention or helplessness, the match with Saudi Arabia, Li Xiaopeng gave a number of newcomers the opportunity to show their faces, and some of them, the performance is also commendable.
Zhu Chenjie took the penalty and hit it
If we talk about the best newcomer in the national football team at present, it is undoubtedly Zhu Chenjie. The post-00s player has secured a stable starting position in the backline and scored a penalty against Saudi Arabia, becoming one of the biggest contributors to the team's miraculous equalizer. In the future, when Zhang Linpeng gradually faded out of the country, Zhu Chenjie is undoubtedly the number one replacement object.
The play of Xu Xin and Zhang Yuning is also worthy of recognition. Although the age of these two people is not "new", in the national football team, they are still a veritable "small character". However, through the last few World Cup games, Xu Xin and Zhang Yuning have gradually won a place in the starting lineup. In the back position, Xu Xin has shown a "general style", he has a kind of self-confidence that national footballers generally lack, and the technical ability is not bad, even in the face of Saudi players' pressing, can use the "flower arrangement foot" stunt to resolve, making people very enjoyable.
Zhang Yuning needless to say, as long as Wu Lei and naturalized players are not there, he is the main striker who will not give in, and considering that it is basically difficult for several naturalized players to play for the national football team, then the first person who can partner Wu Lei in the future must be Zhang Yuning.
Another rookie worth noting is Dai Weijun. In this game, Li Xiaopeng let Dai Weijun appear as a winger, it should be said that it seems that this position is more suitable for Dai Weijun to play than the back, and his flexibility and skillful dribbling skills can also be reflected. In a counterattack, Dai Weijun used dribbling to almost pass three Saudi defenders, and his ability to break through with the ball is the most scarce in the national football team now. Therefore, we can even conclude that Dai Weijun will play a more important role in the national football team in the future.
A valuable draw against Saudi Arabia may rekindle a glimmer of hope for the future of national football. But we also understand that this hope still seems to be illusory, and even in the background of the weak strength of the national football team, it is still a little weak; but Roma was not built in a day, and the national football team of this game at least showed the courage and determination to seek change. Today, when Chinese football has reached the bottom, any insignificant effort and hope deserves to be cherished.
