Reporter Wang Wei reported that at 4 p.m. on September 16, the Shaanxi Provincial Stadium, the high-profile women's football Olympic team appeared in the 14th National Games, they did not show the domineering and strength of the national team in the light rain against the host Shaanxi team, and finally won 1-0 with Wang Yan's header. This is the first game after Shui Qingxia succeeded Jia Xiuquan as the head coach of this team, and from the results and process of the game, the state of this women's football national brand is still unsatisfactory.
Judging from the debut of the Shui Qingxia Women's Olympic Team, she has a different idea from Jia Xiuquan in terms of employment, and this different idea is mainly in the use of backline players.
Jia Xiuquan used Li Qingtong of guangdong women's football team on the defensive end of the first game against the Brazilian women's football team at the Tokyo Olympics as the starting center-back, partnering Wang Xiaoxue. At that time, when Jia Xiuquan used Li Qingtong, the evaluation of the women's football circle was: If the success will be a stroke of God, if it fails, it will undoubtedly be criticized - before Li Qingtong was in the local team, mainly playing the midfield offensive position, and even more often playing the forward, playing the defensive end position is relatively small. However, Li Qingtong's body is strong and her ability to fight is strong, which may be the reason why Jia Xiuquan used her to play center back.
However, on the afternoon of the 16th, when the women's Olympic United Team National Games first played shaanxi, Shui Qingxia's first adjustment in the arrangement of the lineup was the back line, compared with the starting lineup of the First Round of the Tokyo Olympic Games against the Brazilian Women's Football Team, the Olympic United Team, which debuted at the National Games, changed three people and also adjusted the position of a team member.
She withdrew the defensive midfielder Wang Yan to the center-back position, partnered with Wang Xiaoxue in the double center-back position, and also adjusted the full-back position, Wang Ying replaced Luo Guiping, in the starting goalkeeper position, Shui Qingxia used Ding Xuan, a 32-year-old veteran from Shanghai women's football, and Peng Shimeng, the main goalkeeper of the Tokyo Olympics, was placed on the bench.
In addition, from the perspective of the use of starters, the 5 players of the women's Olympic joint team from the Shanghai women's football team, Zhang Xin, Yang Lina, Ding Xuan, Xiao Yuyi and Mu Siwen, all entered the starting list, and in the front court, Wang Shuang and Wang Shanshan's "Wang Bomb" combination also started.
Obviously, Shui Qingxia is still the main framework of the team with the Shanghai women's footballers she is more familiar with and players from other provinces and cities.
Judging from the comparison of the strength of the women's Olympic team and the Shaanxi team, the surface seems to be a big gap, after the start of the game, the women's football Olympic team also controlled the rhythm of the game for a long time and besieged the Shaanxi team, but there were not many shots that really threatened the Shaanxi goal. In the end, with only a free kick from Wang Shuang's penalty in the 36th minute, the defender Wang Yan on the back row pressed on the goal scored from a small angle and won 1-0. Of course, if Shaanxi's header is scored at the last minute, the match will most likely be dragged into a penalty shootout (this tournament stipulates that each match in the group stage must be divided into winners and losses, and a regular time draw will be carried out in a penalty shootout).
With the progress of the schedule, the next women's football Olympic team will encounter a more severe challenge, they want to directly advance to the semi-finals must defeat the next opponent Jiangsu team in the second round of the competition, judging by the performance of the debut of the National Games, the result can not be said to be without suspense.
In the women's basketball final of the National Games, the women's basketball national team, which also played in the name of the Olympic United Team, defeated the Jiangsu women's basketball team with a huge advantage of 100-52 surpassing the opponent by 48 points. Although there are differences in the characteristics of the women's football team and the women's basketball team, from the comparison between the sweeping opponent of the women's basketball team to the difficult victory of the women's football team in the first game, the women's olympic team obviously does not fully have the ability and strength to sweep the opponent.
Behind such a small victory actually reflects the current situation of women's football in the domestic development lag, in the process of communicating with a number of domestic women's football coaches, the reporter found that the domestic women's football coaching circle generally believes that with the current degree of professional development of women's football sports in China, the current situation of women's football youth training, even if Jia Xiuquan leaves office, Shui Qingxia takes office, or other people to coach Chinese women's football, it is impossible to immediately enhance the current strength of Chinese women's football.
The reason why the women's football coaching circle believes that Shui Qingxia is more suitable as the head coach of The Chinese women's football team is that as a long-term coach of women's football, Shui Qingxia understands the characteristics of women's football players and is more familiar with the current situation of women's football. Of course, we must admit that even if Coach Shui Qingxia leads the team, it will take time to play the highest combat effectiveness of a team.
After experiencing the pain of the Tokyo Olympic Games, many fans believe that the Chinese women's football team has reached the time to rebuild, and "changing the coach" has become the most natural and instinctive call. But only by truly seeing the current situation of the development of Women's Football in China can we accurately prescribe medicine. Only by letting the Chinese women's football sport do things in accordance with the laws of football, do a good job in the planning of medium- and long-term women's football sports, and start from the solid planning and construction of campus football, youth training system, career system, and national brand name, will we truly see the hope of the rise of women's football.
