The national football team's "luxury charter dream" has been shattered, and there is a good show to watch now!
Who would have thought that a complaint from the national football players could cause such a big storm? No, in the just-concluded Asian Cup round of 18, the performance of the national football team can be described as miserable. First was severely repaired by the Japan team, and the score of 7:0 made people call "Mom", and then reversed by Saudi Arabia at home, which really broke the hearts of fans.
The national football team that "fell from the sky".
If you want to talk about the former national football team, it was really a "fairy" life. Luxury charter? That's standard! A five-star hotel? That's a must! Not only are these lads not embarrassed, but they also post their "luxury life" on social media from time to time, making it seem like they are some big star.
But who would have thought that this time they would "fall from the sky". In order to appease the anger of the fans, the Football Association was ruthless this time, directly canceling the luxury charter flight and changing it to an ordinary flight. This was supposed to be a wise move, but who knew that because of a team member's "unintentional words", it caused a lot of trouble.
"Earthquake" caused by "crying"
No, 29-year-old national football defender Liu Yang complained on social media, like throwing a bomb on a calm lake. He said that there was no charter flight for this expedition, and he was so noisy by the crying of the children in the back row that he couldn't sleep. As soon as these words came out, it was terrible, and the Internet immediately exploded.
Fans became interested all of a sudden and began to pick up the national football team's trip this time. It took nearly 20 hours to fly from Shanghai to Sydney and then transfer to Adelaide. For ordinary people, such a trip is indeed enough to choke. However, this is the national football team! You represent the face of the country, you can't stand this bit of suffering, how can you fight the court?
"Luxury" does not equal "success"
It's also interesting to say, when the national football team enjoys the best treatment, the results are not very good. On the other hand, athletes in other sports can still win gold medals on ordinary flights. Now it's interesting, can luxury charter still decide whether the game is won or lost? If that's the case, just equip the national football team with a private jet!
This kind of "obsession" with treatment actually exposes the problems of the national football team in terms of psychological quality and professionalism. A real champion, who cares what plane to fly? They only care about how to perform at their best on the pitch.
A dangerous game of "excuses".
What's even more worrying is that some fans feel that this is the national football team making excuses for the upcoming loss. That's not a good sign! A truly strong team should have the courage to face failures and learn from them, rather than rushing to justify their mistakes.
Unexpected "landing" education
Strange to say, this "forced" to take an ordinary flight may be the most needed lesson for the national football players. Let them experience the life of ordinary people, feel the daily life of the fans, and maybe let them re-understand their position and responsibility.
The future of the national football team does not lie in what plane they take, but in whether they can find their own position and reshape their professionalism. Only when they can focus on training and competition, rather than external treatment, like other elite athletes, can Chinese football really "take off".
This turmoil may be a turning point. It reminds us that the real strong do not rely on luxurious charter flights, but on tenacious will and unremitting efforts. Let's wait and see if the national football team can find a new direction after this "landing" and start a real take-off journey.
You say, these national football players, isn't it time to reflect and reflect? After all, there is no limit to the patience of the fans. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid I won't even be able to take a regular flight, so I can only take a bus to the race!
