On the afternoon of April 24, Beijing time, the first round of the 2021 Season of the Chinese League One Dalian Division was held. The head coaches and team representatives of 6 teams, including Nantong Zhiyun, Nanjing City, Beijing Beiti University, Kunshan, Chengdu Rongcheng, and Jiangbei Damen, successively appeared at the press conference, introduced the team's preparation for the new season, and answered questions from media reporters.
Among them, when the head coach of Beijing Beiti University appeared, he revealed the answer to the new coach of the team. Su Maozhen, a former international who led the team to the Chinese League One last season, did not appear, and was replaced by head coach Zhang Xu. This means that Su Maozhen has quietly left class. However, as of now, the official platform of Beijing Beiti University has not announced this news.
The new head coach Zhang Xu said in the introduction of the team's preparations that the new season of Beiti University is a combination of old and new teams, and players under the age of 23 account for the majority. In the new season, I hope to lead the new with the old, play every game well, and let the young players grow faster. The team will do its part and prepare every game carefully.
Zhang Xu and Su Maozhen were both members of the coaching team during Gao Hongbo's coaching period at Beijing Sports University. According to the official information of Beijing Sports University, Zhang Xu joined Beijing Sports University (then known as Beijing Holdings) in July 2017, and was the deputy general manager at the time, mainly responsible for the development of youth football and the construction of the club echelon.
During his career, Zhang Xu mainly played for Beijing and Bayi. In 2002, he became the head coach of Beijing Hongdeng Football Club and in 2010, he became the head coach of Hunan Xiangtao Football Club. From May 2013 to May 2017, he served as the general manager of Hunan Xiangtao Football Club (including the general manager and head coach of the club in the 2014 and 2015 seasons).
Zhang Xu holds a professional-level coaching certificate. Now, Zhang Xu has taken over the Northern Body's great teaching whip, indicating that the Northern Body has turned a new page. As for where Su Maozhen's next stop is, it remains to be seen.
The new season roster shows that compared with last season, The University has indeed changed a lot. Among the players, the youngest Diriar was born on August 12, 2002, and there are as many as 8 "post-00s" players, and Yan Xiangchuang, who was born on September 5, 1986, became the oldest player. There are only 4 "post-80s" players, and the "old" that head coach Zhang Xu said about taking the old with the new should refer to Yan Xiang breaking into them. In addition, Ji Shengpan, Commander He and other Luneng Football School players also appeared in the new season roster of Beijing Sports University.
In last season's China League One, Beiti University finally achieved a 9th place result. In the first round of the new season, Beiti University will usher in its first match at the Dalian Football Youth Base Stadium on April 25 (Sunday) against Kunshan, who finished third in the 2020 China League A and coached by former international Gao Yao.
In the new season, what kind of achievements will Beition University achieve? Let's wait and see.
