on the evening of september 7, the chinese men's football team went to the outdoor field of the dalian soyuwan stadium for their second outdoor training after returning home. however, the 29-year-old team's main left back liu yang did not show up at the training ground. beijing youth daily reporters learned that due to the recurrence of an old injury to his left ankle, liu yang had left the national football team on the 7th and returned to jinan for further treatment. in this case, li lei will most likely replace liu yang as the main left back of the national football team in the china-saudi arabia match on the 10th.

it is understood that liu yang suffered a recurrence of his left ankle injury after playing in the away game against japan on the 5th, and his right foot was also injured, so he could not continue to train normally. the coaching staff finally decided to let liu yang return to the club for further treatment based on the evaluation results of the team's medical team.

in the absence of liu yang, another left-foot player, li lei, will be the first choice for the national football team's next game's main left back. in fact, head coach ivankovic also fully affirmed li lei's technical ability and willpower. in addition, gao zhunyi, another taishan defender who returned to the team during this training camp, has played as a left back in the club team and the national team. during the team's group confrontation training before the china-japan match, young player huang zhengyu also played as a left back. therefore, the coaching staff will not recruit other players to join the team for the time being.

it is also understood that the main central defender zhu chenjie also missed the national football team's joint training on the evening of the 7th due to physical discomfort. however, his injury is controllable and he will most likely appear in the game on the evening of the 10th as a starter.
