Beijing time on April 13 news, according to the latest report of the "Football News", the position of the national football coach may change again, and Li Xiaopeng is likely to take the initiative to resign in the near future after leading the team to end the round of 12 matches.
According to the report, in the recently concluded round of 12 matches, the performance of the national football team led by Li Xiaopeng did not meet expectations. Although the current attitude of the General Administration of Sport and the Football Association on whether to change the coach is still unclear, Li Xiaopeng himself is likely not to remain in this position, and he has a high probability of resigning in the near future.
Li Xiaopeng hastily took over during the round of 12 and took over the position of former national football coach Li Tie. Li Xiaopeng, who took office in a hurry, led the team to a less than ideal result, and in the 4 matches of the top 12 matches, the national football team only achieved 1 draw and 3 losses. In the end, the national football team ranked second from the bottom in the group and did not qualify for the final round of the World Cup in Qatar.
In the 4 games led by Li Xiaopeng, the only thing that can be accepted by fans may be the team's draw with Saudi Arabia. In addition to the draw against Saudi Arabia, the other three matches were lost to Japan, Vietnam and Oman. Especially on the night of the first day of the Chinese New Year, the national football team lost 1-3 to vietnam, which was the most difficult battle for fans to accept.
If Li Xiaopeng chooses to resign, the national football team will have to choose the coach again. The new coach is leading the team to next year's Asian Cup and the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Judging from the previous rumors, the candidates for the new national football coach are more inclined to choose foreign teachers.
