0-1 was eliminated by Denmark, and the opening match of the Chinese Women's World Cup was black. Throughout the game, the Chinese women's football team fought aggressively, converted quickly between attack and defense, and did not give the opponent too many opportunities, but in the end it lost to the defense of a corner kick. Coach Shui Qingxia used Wang Shanshan to play central defender, arranged for Wang Shuang to come off the bench in the second half, and the substitution adjustment in the final stage was slightly conservative and hesitant.
Previously, Wang Xiaoxue, the main central defender of the Chinese women's football team, was injured, and Shui Qingxia tried a variety of partner combinations for this, including: Wang Linlin + Dou Jiaxing, Wang Linlin + Yao Wei, Yao Wei + Dou Jiaxing. However, in the last warm-up game before the World Cup, Shui Qingxia still arranged for veteran Wang Shanshan to withdraw as a guest central defender, a trick used against Japan and South Korea in the Asian Cup.
Facing the European powerhouse Denmark, Shui Qingxia continued to play central defender with Wang Shanshan and partnered with Yao Wei. Although Wang Shanshan's defense played well overall, the loss of Wang Shanshan caused a serious lack of attack in the front court of the Chinese women's team. Especially without Wang Shanshan's holding the ball and making a fulcrum of the ball, Zhang Linyan can only go deep alone. From the perspective of Denmark's overall strength and offensive ability in this game, if Wang Shanshan continues to play as a striker, the Chinese women's football team is fully likely to score goals.
In addition, Wang Shuang of the major league in this game was on standby, which also surprised the outside world, after all, Wang Shuang's personal ability is outstanding, and he returned from the United States not long ago and is still in the game period. Or also considering the pressure of the wing defense, Shui Qingxia used Wang Shuang as a backhand, which also reduced the tandem ability of the Chinese women's football team in the front, and no one could pass the threat. Including the timing and position arrangement of replacing Shen Mengyu in the second half, there are also relatively big questions. To sum up, if Shui Qingxia can be bolder and risky, the effect should be better.
Despite the loss of the Chinese women's football team in the first round, it has not completely lost the chance to qualify, after all, Haiti showed good strength in the match against England, only losing 0-1. If the Chinese women's football team can beat Haiti in the next round, and Haiti can beat Denmark in the final round, the three teams of China, Haiti and Denmark are expected to form a chain.
