0-7 brought the feeling of extreme anger. it was the only time that tian hu was defeated in the opening game with 11 players against 10 players. as a football city, dalian created a very infectious atmosphere for watching the game after the opening, from the whole stadium being red to the huge tifo of fighting for the country.

when the final whistle blew, a large number of fans began shouting for ivan to be fired.

after the game, i saw that all media people were unilaterally criticizing coach ivan. in fact, not only the media people, but also the two commentators of iqiyi, huang jianxiang and su dong, had been complaining during the game. of course, it’s okay to say that the substitutions were too slow or the players were slow to react. but did you notice that after the 70th minute, the physical fitness problems of the national football team had spread to a large area? in other words, at least 6-7 players on the field could not run much, and some even fell to the ground with cramps while playing. if you were the coach in this situation, who would you substitute?

some people attributed the problem to the fact that after taking the lead in the first half, the team played too much defense and was outplayed by the opponent, which caused too much physical consumption. in fact, this is only half right. defense cannot rely on playing too much, but it must be counterattacked. but do the current group of players in the national football team have the ability to play quality defense and counterattack?

the three principles of counterattack are that someone can hold the ball and advance, someone can quickly get into position, and someone can use space to pull the defense line, and finally form a shot. the chinese national team can't achieve any of them, and everything can turn into a grinding position in the end. is this also the coach's problem? without this ability to play counterattack, can't we just rely on turtles?

11 vs 10, the team with more people was exhausted and some people fell to the ground with cramps, which was ridiculous. what was particularly interesting was the match between north korea and qatar, which was a mirror image of the chinese national football team against saudi arabia. north korea had one player sent off with a red card in the 28th minute, but they were able to equalize the score despite having fewer players.

how come north korea has no physical problems? how come they can counterattack? with the ball possession rate between 27% and 73% on both sides, north korea still managed to take 11 shots in the whole game.

after being tied, the team started to attack in the second half, and the situation was slightly better. however, the technical statistics after 45 minutes were 50-50 at best, with a possession rate of 53%-47%, shots 10-7, corner kicks 4-3, and passes 179-164. as you can see, there was still no progress after changing the thinking after the halftime break with one more player. the team was helpless in the field and could not form a continuous pressure on the saudi goal. they could not push the defense and counterattack, and could only rely on set pieces to get lucky. they hit the ball once in the first half and wanted to hit it again in the second half, but they were offside.

it can be seen that the team's ability is limited here.

so i am disgusted by all the blame being put on ivan, as if getting rid of ivan would bring peace to the world. last cycle, li tie led the team and the national fans wanted to eat his flesh alive. when li xiaopeng took over temporarily, many people swore that it would not get worse. in the end, they lost to vietnam on the first day of the chinese new year as a gift to the people of the whole country, and accidentally became the fuse of the anti-gang storm in football. later, jankovic was replaced, and he was labeled as a three-no coach after just a few games; now it’s ivankovic, who is labeled a charlatan. it seems that it’s all the coach’s problem.

yes, the coach has problems, and replacing him with a truly world-class coach should improve the situation. for example, lippi came to the rescue to replace gao, who scored 1 point in 4 rounds, and almost changed the fate of the team to qualify. but the problem is that world-class coaches not only have high salaries and high requirements, but also cherish their reputation very much. in the 2019 world cup qualifiers, when they lost 1-2 to syria, lippi chose to resign at the press conference and ran away overnight.

i don't want any money anymore.

why do they do it so drastically? i'm afraid the silver fox is completely desperate for this group of players. rather than being scolded for their inability to do the job and being ruined, it's better to break up quickly and leave a good impression on each other. times have changed, and the personal abilities of this group of players have declined again. back then, wu lei was at least in his prime; back then, there were zhang linpeng, hao junmin, and gao lin who were still in their golden age. when gao lin was mentioned, everyone couldn't help laughing, laughing at his poor shooting skills and his love of flying shots. but the premise of flying shots is that he can really hold the ball as a fulcrum and can really get frequent shooting opportunities. can these players now compare to this level?

as for wu lei, it is an indisputable fact that wu lei is getting older. so is there a new generation that can replace wu lei? when asked, he remained silent.

in the past few years, wu lei was considered a piece of underpants in la liga. i still remember that three years ago, after the chinese national football team lost 0-1 to japan in sharjah, wu lei kept saying, "i hope young players can go abroad more and play in high-level leagues. it will be helpful for the national team." now that wu lei is old, there are no national team players going abroad, only no. 23 international player liu yang.

the shorts that were originally used to cover my body slowly slid down to my knees. wouldn't they be seen naked by everyone?

in the final analysis, the rotten fish and shrimp are only worthy of those third-rate foreign coaches. you said that you spent money to find a first-class foreign coach, but you didn't understand the situation. lippi was so scared that he ran away overnight, how much money are you prepared to spend to find a first-class coach? if the coach doesn't work after you find him, will you hold the leader accountable? leaders also have pressure. think about mr. camacho, who was hired with a lot of money, didn't he become a joke of general fan? or was hiddink clever. the old dutch man found out the level of the national olympic team as soon as he took office, and directly concluded that "it is unrealistic to lead the team to the tokyo olympics."

unfortunately, you don’t like to hear the truth.

the obvious problem with chinese football today is that the media and fans are particularly fond of covering their ears and stealing the bell, unwilling to admit that the players' level is so low that they cannot be coached, and always have a weird mindset of "maybe it will be better if someone else is replaced." or even if they admit that the players' level is low, they still have a weird mindset of "maybe it will be better if someone else is replaced." anyway, they are used to investing resources in projects that are already or about to fail.

i don't mean to disband the chinese national football team, but the management should really think carefully about which age group is relatively reliable and which age group has hope for improvement, and give priority to the promising projects, such as hiring famous coaches to train more and calm down to sharpen their skills for a few years. back then, the jianlibao team benefited the chinese national football team a lot. if resources were properly allocated, could such a bad result be achieved over the years? don't always compare it with other projects, saying that there will be hope after changing famous coaches. how many years has chinese football hired foreign coaches in the past 20 years? good, bad, and moderately bad coaches have been hired, but is it useful?

it's just the same old story.

recently, there is a joke on the internet that if things really go wrong, you should let your best friend out and let him make amends for his crime. my opinion is that you should never try to find a solution by sticking to the old ways. if you really let your best friend out, he will probably cry and wail after only two games:

“comrade police, please let me go back to jail.
