Today we are going to talk about some "interesting" things about the Chinese men's football team and basketball. Let's talk about the men's football team first, their training camp in the UAE is really not covered. Imagine that the team conceded a goal in a game, how "gentle" the team was defensively! But this was just the beginning, and then they faced the Oman team, oh, this team had beaten the Japanese team, that sounded amazing, right? But what happened? Our national football team still lost, two goals apart. Although the fans are not happy, it is like this, after all, the strength of the people is there.
Let's talk about the game against Hong Kong. In this game, the national team lost 1-2, and two players and an assistant coach were sent off. Does anyone remember the Fan Bin incident? That was 13 years ago. At that time, basketball coach Fan Bin was opposed by some players because of strict management, and finally quit class. The performance of the men's football team this time can't help but be reminiscent of the scene back then. Coach Jankovic is very demanding of his players and trains strictly. Is there anyone wondering if there will be another player who wants the coach to step down?
Our coach Jankovic is notoriously strict in his training style. But did you know that there are rumors that the players may be deliberately playing badly just to force the coach to step down? If this is true, wouldn't the future of Chinese football be bleak? The basketball incident 13 years ago has already made people see that when teams try to get their coaches out of class because they are afraid of rigorous training, the results are often unsatisfactory.
Back to the men's team, let's talk about their game against the underdogs. Although the opponent was weak, our men's team still won. Although they won, they conceded a goal, which has to call into question their defensive ability. It's really laughable.
Let's take a look at that game against Hong Kong. In the game, there were 20 minutes, and the national football team couldn't even pass half time, which was really staggering. I have to say that the performance of this game has indeed made many fans worry about the future of the Chinese men's football team.
Finally, let's talk about the basketball Fan Bin incident. Fan Bin is strict in governing the army and requires the players to be high, but as a result, some players even jointly wrote a letter asking Fan Bin to leave class. This incident later had a great negative impact on the Chinese men's basketball team. The players seem to have lost their motivation and sense of pride. In retrospect, this is truly an embarrassing piece of history.
Speaking of which, we have to think about where the future of Chinese football and basketball will go? If the coach is dismissed because of the opposition of the players, can such a culture really lead Chinese sports to the world? Friends, what do you think?
