In the opening match of Group I of the AFC Champions League, Beijing Guoan battled against United City FC of the Philippines and eventually drew 1-1, a result that was a sight to behold. It made the Chinese national soccer team, which has struggled in this year's AFC Champions League, quite proud. After all, Beijing Guoan's squad is still in its youthful stage. This shows that the development of Chinese soccer must start with the development of young players, and more importantly, allow them to hone their skills on the field of play. ! [Image 1](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/Sinaimg/2021-07/2021070105343075525002551.jpg) Most of Guangzhou's players have stepped straight from the soccer academy to the AFC Champions League, while at least a few of the players on Beijing Guoan's team have played in the Chinese Super League and Chinese B League, as well as for the National Youth League team. Although the Osaka Sakura team is stronger than Union City FC, the young players of Beijing Guoan team performed better than the players of Guangzhou Football Academy both in terms of the results and the process of the game, especially in the use of experience in the game there is a clear gap. Therefore, the training of young players still needs to be practiced through matches. However, on the whole, both Guoan Youth Army and Guangzhou Youth Army had quite a good debut in the AFC Champions League, at least showing the image of a team rather than a scattered team. This reflects Beijing Guoan and Guangzhou's investment in youth training. They have five more matches to go, and whether the opponents are Japan, South Korea or the Philippines, I hope these young players can really learn and improve with each match. ! [Image 2](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/Sinaimg/2021-07/2021070105343091150002551.jpg) From Beijing Guoan's game, we can also see that it still makes sense at this stage for the national youth team to play in the Chinese B or even Chinese A league. For example, Guoan's players such as Liang Shaowen, Duan Dezhi, Nai Bijiang, Hu Jiaqi, etc., through these two years of training in the National Youth League's Central B, their individual ability and game experience are obviously stronger than the Guangzhou players who are straight out of the soccer academy. Although the national team looks young, the style of the national team is more like the adult team compared to the players who play directly in the Guangzhou football school. As a result, the growth of players no longer depends solely on age, but rather on match experience, mentality and experience. Of course, for the 18-20 year old players, they still have some problems in basic skills, passing reasonableness and playing stability, but maybe we should dig more into their strengths and give more encouragement so that the purpose of their participation in the AFC Champions League will be achieved. !

The free kick scored by Guoan and Union City FC Guoan is called "round moon machete", maybe some people say it's luck, but even so, it also needs a certain technical basis, right? Although some of the players in the Guoan team have had experience in the National Youth Football League (N.Y.F.L.) and China B teams, they will have more experience in AFC Champions League level matches. So this time Guangzhou and Guoan team sent young players to participate in the AFC Champions League, although there is a risk of losing, but compared to losing, the intangibles they get will be more valuable, maybe in the future will emerge as Asian Football Mr. and other talents. Of course, the development of Chinese soccer, from this AFC Champions League, these two games can also be seen, the development of soccer, not a slogan, but to be down-to-earth from the youth training.
