The football newspaper reported that Li Xiaopeng, head coach of the national men's football team (hereinafter referred to as the national football team), may take the initiative to resign from the Football Association. Why did Li Xiaopeng suddenly offer his resignation? Is it because the national football results are too poor, or he himself can't withstand the pressure of public opinion, or some other reason.
According to Chen Yong, a reporter from Football News, after the end of the round of 12, neither the General Administration of Sports nor the Chinese Football Association issued any statements and opinions on whether the position of the head coach changed. However, not taking a stand does not mean that Li Xiaopeng's position is safe, because li Xiaopeng is not hired by the Chinese Football Association, but the General Administration of Sports, which may involve "palace fighting".
It is reported that after Li Tie left the class, the intended candidate of the Chinese Football Association was a foreign head coach, and at one point he was very close to the Brazilian coach Scolari, who had coached Guangzhou Evergrande, but the General Administration of Sports finally decided to hire a local coach.
Some fans will say that the selection of the national football team should not be decided by the Chinese Football Association, how can the General Administration of Sports intervene? In fact, the Chinese Football Association is also bitter to say, because in the previous employment of the women's football coach, the Chinese Football Association made a big mistake, let Jia Xiuquan take the position, and then led to the women's football team's fiasco at the Tokyo Olympic Games, breaking the record of the worst result in history.
After that, the General Administration of Sport came forward and invited Shui Qingxia to coach the women's football team, and Shui Qingxia lived up to expectations and led the women's football team all the way through the Asian Cup and won the final championship. It is this move that makes the Chinese Football Association completely unable to raise its head in front of the General Administration of Sports.
Li Xiaopeng led the team 4 games, 1 draw and 3 losses this time, if put in the past, the Chinese Football Association would have let him go out of class, but at this time he did not say a word, and he only wanted the General Administration of Sports to speak, after all, people were invited by them, and the "pot" also had to be carried by them.
Li Xiaopeng's current situation is that the pig looks in the mirror and is not a person on both sides - the Chinese Football Association thinks he is a member of the General Administration of Sports, and the General Administration of Sports thinks that he is a member of the Chinese Football Association. One obvious point is that the president of the Football Association, Chen Shuyuan, no longer supports the head coach as much as Li Tie did when he was in office, and tries to be invisible when he can be invisible to avoid unnecessary disputes.
Li Xiaopeng's pressure is very great, which is what we can all think of, when he took over, the national football team was already out, and whoever was the head coach at that time was the "receiver". The biggest task of the next step of the national football team is the local Asian Cup in 2023, when Li Xiaopeng's pressure will only be greater, slightly worse, the reputation may be more "smelly" than Li Tie, and it will be difficult to find a job in the future.
The head coach of the national football team is really not so good, it can be called a "high-risk profession", even the world famous coach Lippi can not control it, not to mention Li Xiaopeng. Fans and friends, who do you think is the most suitable for the position of head coach of the national football team, welcome to discuss.
