China Super League (soccer)
Advancing into the battlefield of AFC Champions League, the truth has been revealed to the domestic fans before the match: young players will take the lead, aiming at cultivation rather than performance. In other words, at the beginning of the journey, the team was ready to accept the challenge, and even ready to lose.
Fittingly, in the completed AFC Championships, the

Teams without exception suffered defeats, and even more particles. Especially Beijing

The domestic media and fans were shocked after the 0-7 defeat to Kawasaki Frontale. After all, losing is acceptable, but such a crushing defeat is intolerable. As a result, the media began a collective shellacking, pointing the finger at China's youth training system.

Most of the players in this group are quasi-U23 players, although against Kawasaki's strong lineup, Guangzhou's main players' arrival couldn't turn the game around, and they even could only fight for a draw. However, it was clear that Kawasaki didn't go all out in this match and stopped attacking aggressively after taking a big lead, otherwise the loss could have been more than 7 goals. But it is unbelievable that this youth army had 0 shots on goal in 80 minutes. You have to realize that abroad, U23 players are already the mainstay of the top five leagues, and 22-year-olds like Mbappe and Harland are already making a name for themselves in international football, whereas our U23s, however, still have to rely on the FA's policies in order to get a chance to play. Their problems are exposed once they are given the stage to play regular matches.
By definition, U23 players are already considered adult players and are not considered young on the pitch. Why do we define young players in this way? Keep in mind that Beijing

The look.
As a result, after the heartbreaking loss to Kawasaki Frontale, sports media people and fans in the country couldn't sit still and questioned what exactly our youth training system is doing.
I'd say that's exactly why reform

The reason. The ongoing arms race and the gold dollar policy have led teams to keep dropping money on high level foreign aid, with the end result being that

It has to rely on naturalized players to hit the grades. However, does a team filled with foreign players really represent the level of Chinese soccer? Therefore, it is only by restricting foreign players and limiting salaries that local players can be given more opportunities and young players can see the hope to win matches by improving their skills instead of relying on hype alone.
The reform of Chinese soccer is still on the way, and this group of U23 players is in the transition period between the period of golden dollar policy and the reform, and they are also the victims of the reform. Therefore, we are looking forward to the reformed youth training system even more, because the results of the reform will take at least 8-10 years to show. In these 8-10 years, Chinese soccer can only rely on the transition of naturalized players.
