China News Service Client Beijing, May 31st (Bian Liqun) In the World Preliminary Match that ended on the evening of the 30th, the national football team played at home 7:0 Guam and won the second half of the top 40 with a big victory!
This victory did take a long time. Because of the epidemic, the second half of the World Preliminary 40, which was originally scheduled to be held in March 2020, did not finally start as expected until the evening of the 30th.
The national football team will compete in the world preliminaries after 563 days
The last time the national football team competed in the world preliminaries, but also dates back to November 14, 2019, when the national football team regretted Syria 1:2.
Although 563 days have passed, the deep impression left on that day has not dissipated for fans who are concerned about the national football.
After that defeat, the qualifying situation of the national football team became precarious, and Lippi suddenly announced his resignation after the game, which also gave Chinese football a bit of a "feeling" taste.

At the beginning of the next year, Li Tie, who played for the 2002 World Cup in Korea and Japan, took over the coach of the national football coach.
After waiting for a year and a half, Li Tie finally ushered in his debut.
Coincidentally, the last time the national football team played at home was against the Guam team. At that time, the national football team won 7-0. It has been 598 days since then.
The national football starting lineup.
Compared with the national football team under Lippi at the time, today's "Tiejia Army" is more inclined to the 4-4-2 formation, with as many as 7 changes in the starting lineup.
Only veteran Zhang Linpeng was left in the defense, full-back Tang Miao replaced the injured Wang Gang, Wang Shenchao replaced Li Lei, and Jiang Guangtai replaced the young player Zhu Chenjie at the center back.
The midfielder retained Wu Xi, with Hao Junmin and Chi Zhongguo as substitutes, Zhang Xizhe and Jin Jingdao as the starters, and Wu Xinghan, who had not had many chances before, as the left midfielder.
Wu Lei and Exxon had no suspenseful starters on the front line.

From the perspective of the game, the national football team has an absolute advantage in the opening stage, frequently launching attacks on the Guam team.
However, in the absence of official international competitions for a long time, the national football team was still a little rusty in the details and cooperation at the beginning, or perhaps it was eager to score goals, and was a bit too simple and direct in attack.
In the 18th minute, the national football attack finally achieved results, Wu Lei broke through the penalty area to create a penalty, and personally took the penalty.
Wu Lei made a penalty kick
This goal is very important, because it is obvious that the national football team's game mentality has relaxed after taking the lead. Coupled with the gradually finding a sense of positional attack, the players have begun to try different offensive routines.
That's how the second goal was produced. Wu Xinghan passed it to Wu Xi, who was at the front of the penalty area. The latter turned and stuffed Jin Jingdao in the penalty area. In the end, Jin Jingdao completed the goal. The whole process was very smooth and the cooperation was very delicate.
In the second half, the national football team was getting better. In addition to the lack of physical fitness of the opponents, the overall situation was exhausted. Wu Lei and Alan scored twice. Wu Xi and Exon also scored goals. In the end, the national football team was 7:0. Great victory over Guam.
The national football team scored the second goal of the game through subtle cooperation.
The victory of Guam in this campaign is regarded as a good start for the national football team in the second half of the World Preliminary Top 40.
In addition to victory, the other great significance of this game lies in the practice of the game. After a long absence from the international official competition arena, the national football team got a valuable opportunity to run in the lineup and find the feeling of the game.
And judging from the appearance of the game, they are all very positive.
At the press conference after the game, Li Tie also specifically mentioned this point, saying that the mental state and fighting spirit displayed by all the team members, and every time they fight for defense, offense, and counter-robbing are satisfied.
Alan scored twice
Alan and Jiang Guangtai, who staged their first show, initially demonstrated their own value.
Wu Lei, who has been studying abroad and returning to the national football team after a year and a half, has also played well.
At the press conference, the national football coach Li Tie bluntly stated that people who often question Wu Lei can shut up, "This is the only Chinese player studying abroad. Everyone should see Wu Lei's progress. He returned to China to play. Are you happy? Sometimes you play more and sometimes less, but overall you get a lot of growth. He retired and brought what he learned back to China so that he could help Chinese football."

On the bench Wei Shihao, Yin Hongbo, Zhang Yuning, including Wu Xinghan in the starter, who had not had many chances to play before, all further felt the feeling of the international official game.
In addition, the Guam team was basically in a defensive position in this campaign, and there was no shot in the first half. This is more like a national football offensive drill class. A lot of offensive attempts have been made, which will be very beneficial for the subsequent games. accumulation.

After this campaign, the national football team currently has 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the five world preliminaries that have been compared, accumulating 10 points, 5 points behind Syria and ranking second in the group.
In the situation where there is no hope of competing for the first place in the group, the most practical thing is to enter the ranks of the second team of the four best groups (excluding the host Qatar) and advance to the top 12.
In view of the fact that the national football team has used up all the chances of making mistakes in the first half of the top 40 match, in the next three games, the national football team still has to ensure that it is foolproof and achieve a record of victory, so that it will not look at other people’s faces or Need to "calculate math problems".
Long-lost live fans.

Therefore, for the national football team after the big victory, it is still necessary to guard against arrogance and rashness.
On the one hand, after all, the back game is more difficult than the game; the other detail is the yellow card that the substitute will get before the end of the game tomorrow, which also reminds the team how to do a good job in emotional management.
Especially in the battle with the Philippines on June 9th, the national football team must win the opponent if they want to advance to the top 12. How troublesome.
Before the crucial battle with the Philippines, the national football team will face the Maldives on June 3. This is also a valuable opportunity for Israel to practice and run the lineup.
I hope that the national football team will continue to win and not repeat the mistakes of the first half of the top 40.
