The home court factor was a big factor in winning the Asian Cup three years ago, and this Asian Cup is the real litmus test for the national team’s status in Asia. If we can achieve good results again without having the home court advantage, that will prove it.
This national football team has indeed surpassed the past in terms of hard power.
And if this national football team, which is mainly composed of the Tubingen system, can withstand such a test, it will prove the true effectiveness of the Tubingen model. After all, in the eyes of today's people, the Tubingen system is good in numbers, but really
It is still controversial how much role it plays in the performance of the national team. You said Bai Guanghai came out of Tübingen, but he was originally selected for the National Youth League and was buried in Liaoning Football Team. You said Luo Tongliang, he was the same in his early years.
There are opportunities to study abroad.
Whether these people themselves dominate or whether Tübingen, the acquired training base, dominates, there is still controversy in the field of Chinese football. Many people even say that the youth of Tubingen have a first-mover advantage. Give it to them and they will do the same.
As for the World Cup, skeptics will also attribute it to Wang Ai's personal super ability. No matter how unhappy Wang Ai is in this aspect, they cannot deny it, but it does not mean that they also admit Wang Ai's claim.
In the final analysis, Wang Ai can only prove the correctness of the Tubingen model and his series of successes by once again leading the Tubingen national team and his "Wang Jiajun" in this Asian Cup, which does not have any advantage.
The correctness of his thoughts on football development proves that his ideas and appeals are of sufficient value. Only in this way can the deepening reform of football that is faced with many difficulties by Yan Shiduo and other top officials of the Football Association be pushed forward.
Therefore, although this Asian Cup follows last year's World Cup, the attention among society and fans has dropped significantly compared with three years ago, but the attention in the professional field is much higher than before. To put it figuratively speaking,
With Wang Ai as the arrow, Yan Shiduo as the backing, the Tubingen national team as the representative, and a series of football figures such as Xu Genbao and Gao Hongbo, this wave of football reform is now also facing the biggest force of the conservative faction.
Counterattack. These conservatives include some old coaches with outdated ideas, some lay leaders, and ordinary fans who adhere to the stream of consciousness. For example, they still hope to set higher goals for the national football team and still do not believe in the level of football and national development.
They are not willing to promote the second career system for professional players, and they are also eyeing the new youth training system represented by the three Liao Shao teams.
In short, the football turmoil stirred up by Wang Ai is centered around him, attracting more and more forces from all parties. The future path of Chinese football will largely depend on the final result of this Asian Cup. "
If the "Wang Jiajun" wins, the mainstream thinking in Chinese football will turn the wheel in the future. If the "Wang Jiajun" loses, Chinese football will probably remain ideologically divided for a long time and stand still.
Of course, from a personal point of view, if the "Wang Jiajun" wins, then Chinese football will have an unprecedented "mentor-level" and "leader-level" figure. His thoughts will guide the development direction of Chinese football, and his actions will
Leading Chinese football to greater heights step by step. At this point, even if no one calls him out, people will subconsciously acquiesce in Wang Ai's status as "Chinese Football King".
Before Wang Ai went to Xianghe, Yan Shiduo specifically said to him "go back and talk", which contained great expectations in this regard! The conservative forces in football are really not something that a vice chairman of the Football Association can easily shake. The protectionism in various places,
The intertwining of various interests makes him exhausted physically and mentally. Perhaps no one dares to slam the table with him in person now, but all kinds of nudges, all kinds of grumblings, and all kinds of back-and-forth are also distracting him all the time.
energy.
Although Wang Ai said that a well-off society can be expected, but who knows? And why can't it be done earlier? Even if the cards in hand are not very good, why can't we play better? Why can't we play better when there is a strategic disadvantage?
Next, what about achieving advance breakthroughs in performance through flexible tactical command? As an old party member, Yan Shiduo certainly knows what subjective initiative is. Since Wang Ai has now improved the performance of Chinese football while also putting forward various distinct and beneficial propositions,
With such a good foundation for reform, it would be a historical mistake not to take advantage of the victory and pursue it.
Wang Ai, who was in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, preparing for the first group match, did not know the deep meaning of Yan Shiduo. Even though Lao Ding and others from the Academy of Social Sciences sent text messages, and Duan Xuan and He Wei informed him, Wang Ai did not realize this.
The full picture of the great significance of the Asian Cup. The reason why these people, especially Yan Shiduo, did not tell them all was because they were afraid of distracting Wang Ai's energy. In any case, the real story will be seen on the court!
During the intense preparations in Kuala Lumpur, the first game came, and the opponent was the host Malaysian national team.
In view of the fact that although Malaysia is not strong, it is one of the four hosts this time and has posed a strong threat to the national team composed of Chinese Super League players in the past. Therefore, Ali did not dare to be careless this time and sent Bai Guanghai and Dong Fangzhuo in the first game;
Wang Ai, Shao Jiayi, Zheng Zhi, Li Tie; Luo Tongliang, Li Weifeng, Sun Jihai, Zhang Yonghai; Zong Lei's all overseas players. In other words, in order to prevent falling down when going out, Lao Ali sent his "foreign gun team"!
The game started at 8:30 pm, and two-thirds of the Malaysian fans were in the stands. Before the game started, people kept shouting Wang Ai’s name, but Wang Ai turned a deaf ear and stood still behind the center circle and moved his hands and feet.
Wang Ai is about to explode after not playing football for more than two months.
However, Wang Ai was replaced by the coaching staff after only half of the game, because after Wang Ai scored two goals in the first 7 minutes, he suddenly felt a little boring. He was used to using the intensity of confrontation in the Premier League as a simulated opponent, and in real football
It seemed that the Malaysian midfielders and backfield players were far behind in collision and interception. Wang Ai felt a little disappointed as if he had been punched in the cotton.
Wang Ai: You should be tougher!
Malaysian international: I can’t be tough!
It’s true. A few months ago, a super striker who just won the three golden boots of the Premier League, Europe, and Champions League came to compete with these Malaysian league stars. He was really “bullying” people. So, after scoring two goals himself,
When his teammates also scored two goals, Wang Ai took the initiative to leave the field during the halftime break, and the coaching staff followed suit.
They also saw that Wang Ai was not having fun playing football. Since the victory was already determined, it was better to let him rest and give opportunities to young people, such as Gao Lin, who was eager to try.
Gao Lin would probably be depressed if he knew that he was classified as a "young man". Although he has been called "boss" for seven or eight years, he is one year older than Wang Ai!
