Although at the end of the round of 40, the national football team won the support of fans across the country with a 3-1 victory over Syria, which also made the outside world full of expectations. However, entering the round of 12 stage, the national football team was once again beaten back to its original form, and finally missed the Qatar World Cup, which seemed to be some accidents, but in fact, it was already doomed. The all-round backwardness of technical tactics and players' abilities is secondary, and the most important problem of the national football team is that it has become accustomed to pampering itself, and it has long lost the motivation to fight desperately, and it will surrender when it encounters some difficulties.
Generally speaking, the team has a bad record, and the outside world will first blame the head coach. When Li Xiaopeng took over the national football team, the team only had 4 round of 12 matches, and the previous result was 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses, but theoretically retained the hope of counterattack. The result was no wave, Li Xiaopeng led the team to 4 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses, especially the loss to Vietnam and Oman, almost lost the only face of Chinese football. Therefore, soon after the game, some fans shouted that Li Xiaopeng was out of class, and even some people began to miss Li Tie, thinking that although he loved the fans and his record was not bad, at least the scene was passable.
The frequent change of coach of the national football team is not a new thing, but this time the situation is completely different, in the recent CCTV "Football Night" program, Li Xiaopeng officially responded to the rumors of the class, and the suspense was also revealed. In fact, before Li Xiaopeng took over as the national football coach, the Football Association had already accepted the result of the elimination of the national football team, and the change of coach was only to divert the focus of contradictions and deal with Li Tie, a troublesome figure. I believe that when Li Xiaopeng negotiated with the Football Association, he must have also raised his own concerns, that is, he should not carry the pot and focus on a farther goal.
From Li Xiaopeng's statement in the program, it can be seen that he and the Football Association have reached a certain consensus, that is, they will not make success or failure in this year's top 12 matches, and what will determine his fate is next year's Asian Cup. After playing these games, Li Xiaopeng should have discovered various problems in the national football team, and only with the existing lineup and model, it is certainly impossible to make a breakthrough in the Asian Cup. Therefore, Li Xiaopeng made it clear that the national football team needs to change, but where to start, he did not say clearly, and handed over the problem to the Chinese Football Association.
As the competent body of Chinese football, the Football Association has never published an article or dynamic in the case of consecutive defeats in the national football team, apologizing to the fans, and has not proposed any practical solutions. The current national football team has rotted to the root, and only by completely tearing down and rebuilding can it be possible to be reborn in Nirvana. However, the problems of the entire Chinese football world are far more than fans imagine, and the Football Association has always lacked foresight and lacked sufficient courage in doing things forward-looking. But Chinese football has fallen to the point where everyone shouts and fights, and if Chen Shuyuan does not strike hard, the team really has no need to survive. Personally, I believe that the first thing the Football Association should do is to focus on the future, try to give priority to the cultivation of young players, no longer covet the results in front of them, and the older players are called up as little as possible.
