China News Service Dubai, January 26th question: how can Chinese football continue after farewell?

Author Xing Xiaoxiao

ended the Asian Cup journey with a complete defeat of 0:3, and the 26th national football team left one after another. Farewell seems to be the sad footnotes for the national football team to stay in the UAE, with Lippi’s expressionless face, Zheng Zhi’s tears, and the unwilling of many veterans.

When Lippi said without expression at the press conference that he would not continue to coach the Chinese national team, the “Lippi era” of the national football team officially ended.

From the fifth round of the 12th strong match 0:0 smudged Qatar to the Asian Cup quarter-finals 0:3 defeated Iran, Lippi led the national football team to participate in 30 games, he won 11 wins, 8 draws and 11 negative records, with a victory rate of 36.6%, which is only at the middle and lower level among the successive bishops of the national football team.

Although Lippi once said that he was not the savior of Chinese football, improving the national football level is undoubtedly the most urgent expectation of all circles in China for this world champion coach. When Lippi took office, there was a voice saying that he just played the role of “fire fighting” in the top 12 games, and he joined the national team as an “emergency candidate” halfway FIFA World Cup qualification.

It is true that Lipi finally failed to get rid of the “short life” curse of foreign teachers of the national football team and became the 9th foreign coach sent away by the national football team in the past 26 years. Before they came to China, some had been elected as the top ten German coaches, some had coached the Spanish national team, and some had led the team to win FIFA World Cup, but none of them could sit in the national football handsome position for three years……

When the biggest foreign teacher Lippi can’t turn Chinese football into gold, who can replace Lippi?

Dutch Arie Haan, who once led the national football team to win the Asian Cup, once said that even Lippi had to face the same problem as others, that is, winning. In addition, Qi Wusheng, Zhu Guanghu and Gao Hongbo served as local coaches. The tactical style of the national football team changed again and again during the change of 12 coaches. When traditional weak brigades such as Vietnam and Thailand had played their styles in this Asian Cup, when creating history, where is the tactical system of the national football team?

When Zheng Zhi, the 38-year-old national football captain, shed tears on the field and said in tears that this might be the last national team match, it was hard for someone to have too much criticism against the senior general, because this is, after all, the strongest lineup that the Chinese team can come up.

Leading an older national football team with an average age of 29 to fight for the Asian Cup, Lippi has been questioned. In fact, Lippi once wanted to cure the stubborn illness of the aging national football team, such as Deng Hanwen, the U23 player, and Jin jingdao, chi Zhongguo and other players with no national football experience and U23 players such as Liu Yang and Wei Shihao were included in the Asian Cup lineup.

During the Asian Cup, Lippi said bluntly that the veteran who was more experienced and capable was to ensure his achievements. Among the three players who were born in 1995, Liu Xiaoming’s low-level mistake in the defense line led to the second goal being scored by Iran. Liu Yang’s performance could only be said to be moderate, while Wei Shihao had no chance to play, those who can carry the beam are still veterans over 30 years old.

Lippi’s recruitment of many veterans just shows that there are not many available materials for young Chinese players. In the past 15 years, the Chinese youth echelon has never been involved in the top four Asian Games. From 2008 to 2014, the four Asian Youth Games have never been out of the group. In 2016, the Asian Youth Games and even the preliminary matches have not been out. The same group of the Asian Youth Games in that year has not been out of the line.

In contrast to Vietnam, the 2016 Asian youth championship was promoted to the top four. The 2018 Asian Football Association U23 Championship reached the final. The Asian Games entered the top four and won the Southeast Asian Cup. From traditional fish brisket to the top eight Asian Cup, the rise of Vietnamese football has benefited greatly from the youth training boom set up by the Vietnamese Football Association 12 years ago.

Zheng Zhi has decided to say goodbye. The golden generation of players in the 2005 World Youth Championship, such as Ji Junmin, Zhao Xuri, Feng xiaiting and Lin, have also entered the twilight years of their career. For most of the “post-80s” players in the array, the UAE may be the farewell performance of their Asian Cup and even the international career.

Anyway, Lippi and this senior national football team have completed the goal of promoting to the top eight, thus basically determining the seed qualification to ensure the lottery for the top 40 Asian Games in FIFA World Cup qualification this year.

The national football team will conduct training more than a month later, and only two training sessions are left before the start of the FIFA World Cup qualification Asian top 40 competition. How will Chinese football continue after Lippi and the veteran say goodbye? (Finished)

The heart of eternal champion-the past of Chinese women’s football World Cup

Xinhua News Agency, Rennes, France, June 6th question: the heart of the champion-the past of the Chinese women’s football World Cup

Xinhua News Agency reporter Liu Yi, Yue Dongxing

2019 women’s football World Cup war will be ignited in France on 7th, the Chinese women’s football team will launch another impact on the top of the world. Looking back at the history of the World Cup, the Chinese women’s football team has created glory and left regrets between ups and downs, but it has never lost its heart to be the champion forever.

China, the birthplace of the women’s football World Cup

“turn all love into a dream and start a youth journey in the Eastern sunshine. Let all hearts turn into seven rainbows and join hands in the burning oath to cross the peak of the world.”

It must be a senior Chinese women’s football fan who can look at the above sentence and hum the tune. This is the lyrics of the song “crossing the peak”, which was popular during the first World Cup. In the 90’s, when the Chinese women’s football team was the most prosperous in the last century, crossing the peak was the most representative song of the women’s football team’s spiritual complex and the most popular song. Its popularity was no less than that of the later song “Rainbow of ups and downs, beautiful and energetic policewoman.

With the advent of the first women’s football World Cup (sometimes called “Women’s World Championship”, and later FIFA changed its name to “Women’s World Cup”) in China, the Chinese women’s football team and the World Cup formed an indissoluble bond. In 1991, Guangdong province, the frontier of reform and opening up, hosted this competition. There were only 12 participating teams in the start-up World Cup, and the Chinese team in Group A achieved two wins and one draw in the group match. Among them, the opening match swept the Norwegian team in the current runner-up 4:0, it shows great strength.

Unfortunately, in the quarter-finals, the Chinese team was secretly attacked by Sweden only 3 minutes after the start of the match. The whole attack was fruitless and defeated by 0:1, ranking fifth. Fortunately, young players such as Liu Ailing, Sun Wen and Wen Lirong, who were later known as the “golden generation”, began to emerge at that time and got experience in the first World Cup.

The distance from the champion is one step away

in the second Swedish women’s football World Cup in 1995, the Chinese team went further, the “golden generation” first saw its prototype, and the “beautiful and energetic policewoman” gradually blossomed. They encountered the defending champion US team in the first battle. Under the unfavorable situation of falling behind 1:3, they even pulled two balls to beat their opponents, which made the world look at each other.

Then, the Chinese team defeated the Australian team and the Danish team respectively, ranking second in the group to advance to the top eight by the difference of winning the ball. The quarter-finals were a replica four years ago. The Chinese team challenged the host Sweden. The Chinese team, which led most of the games, was equalized by the opponent penalty kick before the end of the game, but then in the penalty kick war, the Chinese team won the final four in a thrilling way. Although it was killed by the German team in the semi-final and finally ranked fourth, it was still very encouraging.

The 1999 American World Cup is an unforgettable memory for all Chinese women’s football fans. Here, the Chinese women’s football team has reached the most brilliant peak. In the face of all roads, they are invincible all the way. In the group match, the old rival Sweden was reversed at 2:1, and then the Ghana team was swept at 7:0, creating the record of the biggest score victory and the biggest score victory of the Chinese women’s football team in the world competition.

After defeating Australia at 3:1, the Chinese team advanced to the elimination match with a total victory in three battles. In the quarter-finals, the Russian team was taken at 2:0. In the semi-final, the Chinese team swept the defending champion Norway at 5:0, creating the biggest difference in the history of the semi-finals of the Women’s World Cup.

The finals went to war between China and the United States. Both sides played 0:0 in regular time and overtime. The Chinese team lost 4:5 in the penalty kick war and missed the champion. This is the latest time for Chinese women’s football team to be the champion, which has been widely appreciated and sought after by the society. Sun Wen, the core player, won the top scorer of the competition with 7 goals.

Ups and downs, eager to cast glory again

with the retirement and aging of the “golden generation”, the strength of Chinese women’s football team has declined, and it is difficult to make breakthroughs and amazing moves in recent ten years. In the 2003 World Cup group match, although the Chinese team won the first place in the group with a record of two wins and one draw, the attack power of the uniform ball can no longer be compared with that of four years ago. Facing the Canadian team in the quarter-finals, the Chinese team lost the ball in the seventh minute of the opening, and finally failed to return to the sky. After the game, Sun Wen announced his retirement, marking the winter of “beautiful and energetic policewoman.

In 2007, after 16 years, the women’s football World Cup “returned home”, but did not bring surprises to the Chinese team. After winning Denmark at 3:2 in the first battle, the Chinese team defeated Brazil at 0:4, defeated New Zealand at 2:0, and advanced as the second in the group. Facing the old rival Norway in the quarter-finals, despite his best efforts, he still couldn’t escape from fate. He was blocked outside the gate of the top four with a defeat of 0:1.

The 2011 World Cup in Germany was the “dark year” of Chinese women’s football team, and they missed the competition for the first time. The Chinese team lost to North Korea and Japan in the Asian competition. In that year, the Japanese team Lianke Germany, Sweden, the United States and other world teams became the first Asian team to win the World Cup championship. The rise of neighbors is both crisis and enlightenment.

At the 2015 World Cup in Canada, the Chinese team met the host immediately after the first battle, starting with a loss of 0:1. In the second battle, 1:0 beat Holland, and then 2:2 Draw New Zealand, leading the second place in the group. In the first round of the elimination match, 1:0 defeated Cameroon to advance to the top eight. In the quarter-finals, 0:1 failed to be the champion of the United States and failed to win the top four again.

The World Cup is about to start. Although the Chinese team has star players like Wang Frost, there is still a gap between the overall paper strength and the world’s top teams, but they are always coming with the champion’s heart, come with a desire for victory.
