On the afternoon of November 20, Beijing time, the Chinese Football Association announced that Shui Qingxia, the former head coach of the Chinese women's football team, would no longer continue to serve as the head coach of the team. For Shui Qingxia's departure, many fans feel incomprehensible, after all, she also led the Chinese women's football team to create a miracle in the Asian Cup at the beginning of last year, and climbed to the top of Asia.
Regarding Shui Qingxia's departure, the Chinese Football Association official also issued a special clarification later: according to the contract requirements signed by the two parties, if Shui Qingxia cannot lead the Chinese women's football team to qualify for the Paris Olympics, then the contract of the head coach and the original coaching staff will be automatically terminated according to the agreement. In other words, Shui Qingxia's resignation as the head coach of the Chinese women's football team is based on the contract, and the two parties have no objections at all.
Song Kai, the former director of the Liaoning Provincial Sports Bureau, after taking office as the chairman of the Chinese Football Association, also continued his consistent pragmatic style in the Liaoning Sports Bureau, and his approach finally won the recognition of fans. However, some men's basketball fans saw that after the Football Association terminated the contract with Shui Qingxia, they also recalled the contract issue between the Chinese men's basketball team and head coach Djordjevic, which has not yet been properly resolved.
Since succeeding Du Feng as the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team at the beginning of this year, Djordjevic has led the team to encounter Waterloo in the Men's Basketball World Cup and the Hangzhou Asian Games, and the results achieved are seriously inconsistent with the expectations of fans.
This also reflects the amateurism of the Chinese Basketball Association in dealing with the problem, Djordjevic replaced Du Feng as the coach of the men's basketball team, on the one hand, he enjoyed an annual salary of one million dollars, on the other hand, there should be clear performance constraints, if the men's basketball World Cup failed to qualify, because of the overall strength of the team, there is a gap with the world's strong teams, then the unexpected loss in the Hangzhou Asian Games is a painful reality that fans across the country can not accept.
I only hope that the relevant leaders of the Chinese Basketball Association can emulate the efficiency of the leadership of the Football Association, give fans a satisfactory answer as soon as possible in response to the poor performance of Djordjevic's team, and also prepare for the Chinese men's basketball team in advance in the next World Series.
