Almost on the same day, the national enough to say goodbye to the Qatar World Cup in a way that looks decent, but is actually very sad. Even if the players have a 2-17 shooting ratio and a 24% possession rate, they finally rely on Zhu Chenjie's penalty to draw the Saudi men's football team that has qualified ahead of schedule 1-1. However, the level of competition reflected by the national football team in the game is still shameful. After taking a detour of several years, spending a lot of money to invite big-name famous coaches, recruiting as many as 6 or more naturalized players, in the end, the manager changed one after another, and the naturalized players also faded a little bit into the list of foreign footballers, and the national football team still used the all-Chinese class lineup to find a little dignity in the game. With a little spirit, it is also achieved that even if the field is always pressed in the half, there is still a hope of playing a draw. Zhang Linpeng, Zhu Chenjie, Gao Zhunyi, Zhang Yuning, Dai Weijun, and finally let the fans see a little hope. However, looking back, we will sigh again, the national football team has gone around for another four years, the national football team is not to say that it is going to the world, even in Asia, it has only earned a hilarity, and the rest is a chicken feather. Why does the national football team think more and more forward, and the more it continues to retreat?
In the same situation, the Italian men's football team, which just won the European Championship two years ago, also failed to win a required victory in the World Cup play-offs in Europe, and also missed the World Cup for the second consecutive time. Unlike the national football team, even if it does not want to fight for defense, it has to return to its own half-court defense in the process of trying to move forward, Italy's attack against Macedonia is wave after wave, the number of shots on goal is more than 30 times, and the possession rate is the same as when Saudi Arabia plays the national football team, it is more than 70%. But so what? Macedonia's defense was airtight, the goalkeepers fought desperately to defend, and the direct destruction of Italy's attack was as high as 19 times. Through a tight defense, Macedonia supported their own steel wall, and finally wiped out the will of the Italian players a little bit, while they themselves achieved a unique kill against the Italian men's football team in the final injury time of the game. Such a upset, as well as Trajkovski's cold shot from outside the box, allowed them to send the Italian men's football team back from heaven to hell. Perhaps Macedonia may not be able to defeat Ronaldo's Portugal in the final of the play-offs, but at least in this showdown with Italy, they are the real winners.
After Italy was eliminated, Huang Jianxiang, who has always liked the Italian men's football team, spoke up again, saying that he thought that the Italian men's football team's victory in the European Championship was a new beginning, but he did not expect to become a return to the light. He said he was asleep and didn't see a moment when Italy was killed by Macedonia. Then he comforted himself and said, this is good, the next game does not have to stay up late to watch the ball. When we are surprised that the national football team and the Italian men's football team have looked lively for several consecutive years, and the results of the men's national football team have declined step by step, we will suddenly find that for the football project, it needs to be in line with world football, it needs to go out, and it also needs to be invited in, only when the road in this regard is smooth, will the league really come alive, and the men's national team can have better development. The self-righteous success and progress are just a kind of self-suggestion, and the real success and progress can only be obtained by competing with the opponent. Otherwise, even if the league looks lively and the players make more money, it is just a kind of self-congratulation! The Italian men's football team and the national football team both failed to qualify for the World Cup, and both sides made the same mistake, that is, they just performed hard to show themselves, while ignoring the outside world, and have long changed their appearance.
When the Italian men's team, which is the winner of Euro 2020, will also miss the World Cup for the second time, we have witnessed manager Mancini go from heaven to hell overnight, and his eight-month coaching career has gone from glorious bloom to dark to dark. In this way, when we see that the boys of the national football team, whether they play well or badly, will also raise their fingers together at the moment when the team scores and completes the equalization score, we seem to be relieved. Football can bring us pain and sorrow, but it can also bring us confidence and hope. Italy, as the champion of the former World Cup and the European Championship, needs to experience such a dark to dark moment, why can't we continue to wait, looking forward to the national football team can have a chance to change its appearance? The football is round and it will keep rolling forward. Sometimes, some endings are so wordless.
