In the past ten days, Shui Qingxia, who was in danger, led the Chinese women's football team to participate in the form of a joint team, scoring eight goals and conceding one goal in four games, winning the gold medal without suspense. There are five Shanghai players in the joint team, and the final is against the Shanghai women's football team, and the whole field is full of Shui Qingxia's apprentices, from this point of view, Shui Qingxia's tactical thinking has won the victory at this National Games.
Before the Tokyo Olympics, the Chinese women's football team stubbornly defeated South Korea in the play-offs. Like the women's volleyball team, the "women's football spirit" is talked about. After the Tokyo Olympics, accompanied by harsh doubts and endless criticism, Jia Xiuquan fell off the altar with this team.
On August 16, the Chinese women's football team ushered in a change: Shui Qingxia "put out the fire" as the head coach of the Chinese women's olympic team and led the team to participate in the National Games. Everything happened so fast that Shui Qingxia herself was caught off guard. Her mobile phone was about to explode, but she only left one sentence: "I just received the task of playing the National Games, let's see it after the game." ”
Shui Qingxia is a very pure person, only concerned about football, only want to do her job well. Until now, she did not know whether she would really become the head coach of the Chinese women's football team, and could only quip to the media: "Or will you reveal it to me?" ”
On the surface, Shui Qingxia made adjustments to Jia Xiuquan's main lineup, mainly focusing on the back line. The performances of goalkeeper Peng Shimeng and defender Li Qingtong at the Olympic Games were astounding, with frequent mistakes and many times becoming a direct factor in conceding goals. At the National Games, the two never played again, and Zhu Yu served as the goalkeeper. At the same time, Shui Qingxia replaced Luo Guiping, Wang Yan changed to the wing, Yang Lina returned to the familiar back position, and forward Wang Shanshan played as a central defender.
The biggest change is the captain Wang Shanshan. At the Tokyo Olympics, she was the second scorer after Wang Shuang. Shui Qingxia explained: "Because Wang Shanshan used to play at the back, the veteran team members are experienced and can supplement the back line. "Although it is the first time to serve as the head coach of the Chinese women's football team, she knows every player very well. The players come from various provinces and cities, but have all played in the Women's Super League. Moreover, when Shui Qingxia was the coach of the national youth in her early years, she had dealt with some of the current team members, and she knew the advantages and disadvantages of each team member.
Although the most criticized is the back line, what really led to the defeat of the Chinese women's football team in Tokyo was the team's ambiguous offensive organization and tactical coordination. For example, in a match with zambia women's football team, it is no big deal to lose four goals, as strong as the Dutch women's football team once let Banda complete a hat-trick. The fatal problem is that against Zambia's amateur-level defense, the Chinese women's football team should not only score four goals. Fortunately, Shui Qingxia has a set of offensive aspects.
To the national team, Shui Qingxia still continues her "beautiful football" concept of "fast pass fast run, fast force fast grab, overall combat, and balance of power and defense", and is committed to creating a ground football based on passing and matching. However, from August 16 to now, Shui Qingxia has only one month to adjust the team. In fact, at the time of the news release of her coaching team, the Chinese women's football team was still in quarantine, and only three weeks were really left for Shui Qingxia. In such a short period of time, can the Chinese women's football team change its face? It's not going to be easy for any coach.
In the first two games of the group stage, the effect was not ideal. Whether it is facing the Shaanxi team dominated by U23 players, or the traditional powerhouse Jiangsu team, there are not many ways for the united team. There was no way, the preparation time was too short, it was rainy again, and the joint team won the "quenching thirst". After the game, Shui Qingxia took everyone to watch the video together, and the analysis was insufficient. "Talk more about the whole, instill more football ideas, emphasize more skills under the feet." At the beginning of the semi-finals, the united team gradually improved, facing Beijing team to win 4-0. More important than the score, the frontcourt short pass with Wang Shuang as the core began to work, the content of the game began to become pleasing to the eye, and the "water football" was a bit of a look.
The final against the Shanghai women's football team can be called the "mirror battle", and both teams are playing according to Shui Qingxia's thinking. Judging from the course of the game, although the Shanghai women's football team lacks major generals, the small range of cooperation is more tacit, and the counterattack is very effective. The United team won by virtue of their individual ability, but imagine that giving Shui Qingxia a little more time, this team has a reason to get better.
