In the case that the Chinese Super League has been postponed and the current holding time has not been finalized, the AFC Champions League has received great attention from the majority of Chinese fans in the recent period. At present, it is also played by two Chinese Super League clubs, Shandong Taishan and Guangzhou. But before that, the two Chinese Super League teams actually did not perform well, in the case of sending the youth army to play, the first four games, the two teams of the Chinese Super League lost all in the AFC Champions League, and each game was an absolute tragedy, 4 games lost a total of 25 goals, which did make domestic fans very anxious, so it also caused a lot of doubts, so that the team had some crises.
Many people also have great controversy about the training method of Chinese Super League football, believing that such a game has no meaning, and young players only have a masochistic share in the AFC Champions League. So in this case, it is conceivable that our young players are under a lot of psychological pressure, which also makes us sweat for their subsequent performances. Yesterday, the two teams of the Chinese Super League also ushered in various third-round matches, but the result of the game was completely unexpected by the expectations of the fans, and both teams had an absolute change in appearance. In yesterday's AFC Champions League, the first Guangzhou team to play was 3-0 to Ulsan Hyundai, and the team suffered three consecutive defeats. But such a loss is not shameful, because Ulsan Hyundai is indeed a team stronger than the Guangzhou Youth Army, and before the game, the Korean media has shouted that in this game, Ulsan Hyundai can't win 8 goals for Guangzhou, even if it loses. As a result, the boys of the Guangzhou team directly punched the Korean media in the face, and the fighting spirit in the game was absolutely affirmed by the fans. The next Taishan team directly drew 0-0 with the Lion City Sailors, breaking the point drought in this AFC Champions League and getting the first points of the Chinese Super League team in the AFC Champions League.
And the progress of the two teams in the game, the answers handed by these young players yesterday, obviously made us feel very surprised. Also got the respect and praise of fans, like last night at 22:00, the domestic authoritative media People's Daily, also used 11 words to comment on the progress of the Chinese Super League Youth Army, People's Daily said that the value of exercise, lies in going all out. And for the two youth teams on the field of the fighting spirit of praise, said that after consecutive big score losses, our young players did not give up, the team did not collapse, in the face of more mature and professional opponents, the two teams of the Chinese Super League spelled out the best of themselves, worthy of encouragement. Then this is an absolute affirmation of the continuous progress of the two teams in the AFC Champions League, and it can be said that it also speaks the voice of domestic fans. Facts have proved that as long as our young players can put down their ideological baggage and do their best to show themselves on the field, China's youth army is no worse than other teams in Asia, as long as they work hard, there will always be progress.
And this point is actually very well reflected in the game, like the performance of the two teams of goalkeepers in yesterday's game, it gave the best answer, after the first two games were flustered, and even after continuous manufacturing, yesterday's game We obviously saw their progress. In particular, Guangzhou's goalkeeper He Lipan made 9 saves in the whole game, and even staged a magical 2 consecutive saves at one point, and that one ball was definitely a surprise. And after the save, the domineering and fierceness displayed by the individual is the key to the future needs of Chinese football. When the Chinese players are on the field, they can send such performances, when they continue to sum up and go all out, and they are not afraid of opponents on the field, Chinese football has real hope.
Seeing the surprises given to the fans after the Chinese Super League youth army gradually adapted in the AFC Champions League and lost consecutively, I believe that in the Football Association, the president of the Football Association, Chen Shuyuan, will also be pleased. After the national football team has regressed in strength, they may be the best hope for the future.
