Is Chinese football lacking spirit?
What Chinese football lacks is not just spirit. This is a complex and multidimensional issue, involving culture, system, education, investment and other aspects. However, the lack of spirituality is undoubtedly one of the factors that cannot be ignored.
First of all, we need to be clear about what the spirit of football is. The spirit of football does not only refer to the fighting spirit and fighting spirit of the players in the game, but also includes the values, beliefs and attitudes contained in the entire football culture. This spirit should permeate every aspect of football, from the cultivation of youth at the grassroots level to the development of professional leagues to the construction of national teams.
However, in the reality of Chinese football, this lack of mental dimension is obvious. In the game, we often see players lack fighting spirit, lack fighting spirit, and even choose to give up at critical moments. Behind this phenomenon, it reflects the players' lack of awareness of football and their desire to win the game.
In addition, there are many problems in the system and education of Chinese football. The imperfection of the system has led to an irrational allocation of resources, and many young players with potential are unable to get enough training and opportunities. The lack of popularity of football education has also caused many children to miss the best opportunity to contact and learn football.
In terms of investment, there is still a big gap between Chinese football and some developed countries. Although China's investment in football has been increasing in recent years, compared with football powerhouses such as Europe and South America, our investment is still stretched. This has led to obvious deficiencies in our football infrastructure construction, coaching team building, and player development.
However, we cannot ignore the efforts of Chinese football at the spiritual level. In recent years, with the deepening of football reform, Chinese football has also made some progress in spiritual construction. For example, more and more players are beginning to realize that football is not just a sport, but also a cultural and spiritual heritage. At the same time, Chinese football has also begun to pay attention to the spiritual cultivation of young players, and more children can feel the charm of football by holding various football cultural activities and carrying out football education.
However, these efforts are far from sufficient. If Chinese football wants to truly rise, it must be more deeply excavated and shaped at the spiritual level. We need to build a culture of football that is positive, hardworking, and cooperative, so that this culture can permeate the hearts of every player and become their driving force.
At the same time, we also need to strengthen the popularization and promotion of football education. Through football activities in schools, communities and other places, more children can be exposed to football and cultivate their interests and hobbies. In addition, we also need to establish a comprehensive football talent development system to provide more training and opportunities for young players to continue to grow and improve in the game.
In terms of investment, we also need to continue to increase our efforts. Only by increasing investment can we better improve the football infrastructure, improve the quality of coaching, optimize the development of players, etc. At the same time, we also need to guide social capital into the field of football, form a diversified investment mechanism, and provide more support and guarantee for the development of Chinese football.
In short, Chinese football lacks more than just spirit. We need to work together on many fronts to truly promote the rise and development of Chinese football. Only when we have made significant progress in many aspects such as system, education, and investment, can we truly realize the dream of rejuvenation of Chinese football.
