The East Asian Cup harvest and deficiencies coexist, and the Chinese women's football team still needs to be improved

After the Japanese team was tied 0: 0 on the evening of the 26th, the Chinese women's football team finally won the runner -up of the East Asian Cup. For the Chinese team, which lacks high levels of competition at this stage, it can not only investigate the newcomers and run the lineup for the Women's Football World Cup next year, and at the same time do not let the Japanese and South Korean teams win. From the results, it is acceptable. However, the problems and deficiencies exposed in the game will be solved by the next stage of overseas practice.

Looking back at the East Asian Cup three games, the Chinese team has three gains. First of all, the head coach Shui Qingxia insisted on the old and new, driving the growth of young players. There are three "post -00s" players get valuable actual opportunities, namely three consecutive launching central defender Wang Linlin, frontcourt attacker Zhang Linyan and back -back Wan Jiayao. Among them, Wang Linlin and Zhang Linyan each scored a goal, showing the strength of the main position of competition.

Secondly, Shui Qingxia tried different personnel combinations to let the outside world see the depth and potential of the team bench. On the back line, Wang Linlin and Wang Xiaoxue partnered with Wang Xiaoxue. Gao Chen and Yao Wei on the two sides performed stable, and the teenager Wan Jiayao showed a certain impact. Considering that there are veterans such as the captain Wu Haiyan and Li Jiayue in the bench, the team has sufficient personnel at least in the middle -back position.

In terms of midfield, Zhang Xin, Yang Lina, Zhang Rui and Yao Lingwei are two sets of different styles of rear waist combinations. Wu Chengshu, Xiao Yuyi, and Song Duan on the edge, Wang Shanshan, the captains of the front line and the outstanding ability of the ball, and Wang Shuang, Tang Jiali and Zhang Linyan, who are outstanding, have all tried to cooperate with each other. However, it can be seen that the most tacit combination has not been found in the middle and front court, and there is still much room for improvement.

Third, the Chinese women's football team continues the valuable characteristics of hard work, strong cohesion, and never abandoning, as well as tactical literacy of three lines of back, midfield and front lines. Even when he did not play well and his opponent was better, the team could still stand up to the pressure and equalized the score against South Korea. In the face of Japan, there was no ball.

Compared with the performance when the Asian Cup was reversed in February this year, it can be found that the Chinese team's cooperation on the East Asian Cup was not enough, and the passing mistakes made more mistakes. Smooth cooperation has not many opportunities to create substantial threats. Moreover, compared with the opponent, an obvious shortcoming of the Chinese team is insufficient control over the game. The frequency of errors, rejuvenation, robbing the ball, and re -throwing the ball are high, and the player's physical energy consumption is large. This is the next aspect that needs to be improved.

At the end of the East Asian Cup, the European Women's Football Championship also entered the semi -final stage. Shui Qingxia said that she watched the game every day and pays attention to the opponents that may encounter next year's World Cup. "Now the overall level of European women's football team is very high, especially in terms of physical collision, offensive and defensive conversion speed, increasingly masculine trends."

The Chinese team's coaching team pays attention to the rapidly progressive European team, and will bring targeted guidance and improvement to the team in the next overseas practice. Of course, this also indicates that the Chinese women's football team will receive a greater test at the World Cup.
