In an interview with Xinhua News Agency, li tie, the coach of the national football team, said that the two naturalized players of Alain and Luo Guofu have greatly improved through two months of training, and they are confident that the team will get better and better.
In the first 4 rounds of the round of 12 matches, the national football team accumulated 3 points from 1 win and 3 losses, ranking fifth in the group, and the qualifying situation was not optimistic. Originally, after the team finished nearly two months of training and competition in West Asia, it has returned to China, hoping to usher in a real home stadium in Suzhou. However, due to the impact of the epidemic, the matches between the national football team and Oman and Australia are still unable to be played at home in China. In this regard, Li Tie said: "When I first got the news, the gap between the players was relatively large, and the ideas and adjustment ability of each player were different, and we could only give the players some help according to the previous cognition." ”
According to the arrangement, the national football team will depart for the United Arab Emirates tonight, compared with the previous lineup, Wei Shihao, Guo Tianyu, Wang Shangyuan, Yin Hongbo 4 people left the team due to family reasons, while Gao Zhunyi was injured in the warm-up match on the 3rd and could not play with the team. Li Tie said: "As a head coach, I hope to bring every player to Sharjah, but all four of them are for family reasons, not because I am not satisfied with their attitude towards training, family is extremely important for everyone. ”
In the first 4 rounds of the game, Li Tie did not focus on the use of Luo Guofu and Alan two major naturalized players, which also caused great controversy from the outside world. Among them, Luo Guofu also seized the limited playing time to pull back a goal for the national football team in the match against Saudi Arabia. Will the next two naturalized players start? How does Li Tie face the doubts of the outside world? Li Tie said: "In these two months of training, Alain and Luo Guofu trained very hard, and their physical functions have been greatly improved in all aspects. The coaching staff has been using scientific means to monitor the player's physical data, and I believe that no one knows the situation of this team better than me, and no one wants to lead the national football team to win the game more than I do. No matter who the player, as long as he can meet the requirements of the game and help the team, I will send him to play. ”
Speaking about the next round of 12 matches, Li Tie said: "I treat every national team game as my last game, and I am confident that the team will get better and better, solve the team's problems step by step, and strive for better results." ”
