The national football team relied on penalties to draw 1-1 with Saudi Arabia. From the scene, the gap between the two sides is huge, but the result is acceptable. Most of the players in the whole game showed their hard work, and Zhang Linpeng, who has been spat on by the fans, really did her best in the game, repeatedly turning the team into danger and destroying the opponent's attack, Zhang Linpeng's play was worthy of his captain's armband.
He also knew in his heart that once there was a mistake, he would be scolded by many fans, but he did not back down, which was worthy of the captain's armband. Admittedly, he made two mistakes in the second half, and after the physical decline, he was normal, and overall he was very responsible. For the current national team, a veteran like Zhang Linpeng should play an exemplary role, every ball should be done to fight for it, every time the ball should be handled carefully, there should be a better overall view on the field to encourage young players.
Why did 21-year-old Zhu Chenjie take a penalty? In the later interview, Zhu Chenjie said that this is the arrangement of the head coach, and there is also special training in normal times. Zhu Chenjie, who was born on August 23, 2000, is only 21 years old now, and it is enough to prove that he has no problems in psychological quality at such a young age. I have to say that the national football team can let the post-00 young players take penalties in such an official game, which is also enough for the young player Zhu Chenjie to exercise opportunities, and I hope that Zhu Chenjie will have a better performance in the Asian Cup next year.
In this game against Saudi Arabia, Zhu Chenjie not only scored the equaliser, but also contributed the highest clearance (5) and interception (5) of the game. Attacking and defending both ends, are good, on behalf of the national football team just over double digits after the 00, in front of many big guys to resist the pressure, penalty score, Zhu Chenjie is going to transform.
In fact, the national football team played really ugly, only 26% of the possession rate of the whole game, 1 corner kick 2 shots 1 positive, if it is not the Saudi team to relax, there may not be a chance to take penalties. However, CCTV commentary commented on the national football team: penalties are an opportunity to survive, and Saudi Arabia has been too relaxed without pressure for a long time. In any case, the biggest gain of the national football team is undoubtedly Zhu Chenjie. After this battle, it is bound to grow up faster and truly become the mainstay of the national football team.
After the equalizer, 2 moments of emotion, the first is that after Zhu Chenjie hit the penalty, the players did not celebrate too much, but gathered together, two fingers in the sky. After the game, the Chinese team explained through official channels that the team members expressed their condolences for the crash of Flight MU5735 of China Eastern Airlines on "3.21", and also paid tribute to the death of Chinese football star Mr. Chen Chengda, who died of illness.
The second touch is that the young players of the U23 national football team gave applause to big brothers, which is a inheritance of the spirit of hard work. The U23 national football team will next play against Thailand, this U23 national football team has not played an official game for a long time due to the epidemic, and hopes to perform well in the Dubai Cup.
