In yesterday's match, China's men's soccer team swept Shandong Taishan 3-0, winning eight consecutive warm-up matches. With the end of the two-week training in Shanghai, the national football players have gone to their respective clubs, into the new season of the Chinese Super League preparatory fever. The next training session of the national football team is scheduled around May 20 in Gusu, where the 40-team tournament will be held, and the team will prepare for the upcoming 40-team tournament.
Warm-up matches as an important way to test the team's technical and tactical and overall status, since Li Tie coaching, the national football team played a total of 8 warm-up matches, respectively against Liaoning Shenyang City, Wuhan Zhuoer, Shanghai Shanghai SIPG, Shanghai Shenhua, Hebei Huaxia wonderful, Henan Songshan Longmen, Shandong Taishan. In these 8 games, the national football team scored 29 goals and only lost 2 goals, the process and results are satisfactory. It is worth mentioning that, due to the impact of the epidemic, the Chinese Super League teams are unable to go abroad for training and competition, this long interval, the Chinese Super League teams are in the domestic preparation, and domestic clubs for the warm-up matches have also become the norm.
Shandong Taishan's performance in warm-up matches was not satisfactory, they played a total of nine warm-up matches, and achieved a record of 2 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses. on February 24, Taishan's team in Haikou during the winter training to 1-2 against the third place in the Central League, Kunshan FC, although this loss did not attract too much attention, but on February 27, the warm-up matches with Beijing Guoan to 2-1, exposing the team's problems. at the beginning of March, the team again assembled in Jinan, they briefly assembled to go to Shanghai to prepare for the game. After a short assembly in Jinan, they went to Shanghai to prepare for the game. The team's training in Shanghai has two main purposes: one is to slim down the lineup, and the other is to play more warm-up matches to speed up the team's integration speed in the case of Fellaini and new recruit Leonardo.
On March 27th, Shandong Taishan and Shanghai Seaport played a warm-up match, which resulted in a 5-0 win for Seaport, with a hat-trick for Muy and a goal each for Lopez and Arnautovic. Despite the absence of a number of key players from the Taishan team, the 0-5 scoreline was a real cause for concern, and the integrity of the team's defense was questioned by Shandong fans. After that, Taishan played three more warm-up matches, they beat Kunshan FC 3-2, drew with Changchun Yatai 3-3, and lost to the national soccer team 0-3 in the warm-up match with the national soccer team. It is worth noting that the Taishan team warm-up games poor performance, on the one hand, and the team has been unable to get together the main formation, on the other hand, Taishan team in a number of warm-up games sent out the bench players and marginal players, selection and examination of the meaning of the strong, it seems to be not too concerned about the results of the warm-up games. However, the poor results of the warm-up games more or less affected the morale of the Taishan team, but also Hao Wei guide in the season before the start of the public opinion pressure.
In contrast to the Taishan team's warm-up results is the Shanghai seaport, from the preparation period so far, the seaport played a total of 8 warm-up games, 7 wins and 1 draw undefeated, in the 8 games, the seaport scored a total of 28 goals, an average of 3.5 goals. Seaport can play so many warm-up matches, first of all thanks to their "host" advantage, since March, the Seaport Club's Century Park training base is bustling, a number of teams training in Shanghai as a home base, Seaport want to about warm-up matches is not difficult. Secondly, Seaport's personnel is the most complete. In terms of foreign aid, Oscar and Lopez returned to our country with the team after last year's AFC Champions League match and never left; Muy and Arnautovic flew back to our country at the beginning of the winter training; and the new foreign aid, Mysztorovic, arrived in Shanghai in mid-February. Coupled with the already not weak equipment of local players, the seaport team only from the paper strength, to be higher than the warm-up opponents a cut.
In addition, Shanghai Seaport's top performance in the warm-up matches is also closely related to the strict requirements of the team's new coach, Leco, in training. Leco mastered the marquee, opened a six-week training mode, and in the training emphasized that the players should run up, can not have the slightest slack, which also makes the seaport player's physical condition greatly improved, the team and then into the warm-up games, basically will not suffer from physical bottlenecks. However, except for Taishan, most of the opponents of the seaport team are weak, therefore, it is not surprising that the seaport often played a high score in the game. What the Harbor coaching staff didn't expect was that newcomer Maistorovic was injured in the warm-up match with the reserve team, resulting in a torn cruciate ligament, and the season was basically over, and the Harbor had to urgently start the work of introducing the fifth foreign aid.
Shanghai Shenhua, known as the "Shanghai Twins" with the seaport, has attracted a lot of reinforcements this winter break, Bassogo, Jonić, Adrian, Wu Xi and other strong players to join, so that the team's strength has not decreased. However, in terms of warm-up matches, manager Choi Kang-hee has been pressed into action, but will be more energy are placed on the physical reserves and team confrontation. A reporter asked Cui Kangxi why not organize warm-up games, Cui Kangxi responded that warm-up games do not need to organize too early, everything in the grasp. With the new season is approaching, Shenhua's preparations also speed up, the team's warm-up games are finally organized. 3 April, Shenhua to 2-1 win over Henan Songshan Longmen, Yu Hanchao and Moreno for Shenhua goals. Next, Shenhua will face promotion rival Changchun Yatai on April 10, and will play against Chinese League One team Kunshan FC on April 14, before preparing to enter the Gusu tournament.
With Shenhua, seaport in the same Gusu district of Beijing Guoan in this winter break action is not small, "rock manager" Bilic arrived, to the team injected passion and vitality, as well as advanced technical and tactical concepts. Bilic's hands-on approach to training has quickly established his credibility. Guoan and Shenhua similar, will spend more time on the team training, warm-up games played and not much. From the beginning of February until now, Guoan played a total of 5 warm-up games, facing Kunming Zhenghe Shipbuilding, Kunshan FC, Zhejiang team and Nantong Zhiyun, their record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, the most recent warm-up game, Guoan 1-1 draw Changchun Yatai.
As last season's runner-up Guangzhou team in this winter break more low-key, the team faced a number of main players transferred to the national team, the core foreign aid did not return, team injuries and many other objective difficulties. 26 February, missing half of the main force of the Guangzhou team and the Cangzhou Lions played a warm-up game, the results of the results of the loss of 3 to 4. 5 March, Guangzhou team in the warm-up game 4-0 victory over the Chinese League One team Shaanxi Chang'an Athletic, and one week later, with Changchun Yatai 2-2 draw. 19 March, 6-2 victory over the full Chinese class of Zhejiang, showing the eight champions of the bottom of the world. On March 19, Guangzhou won 6-2 against Zhejiang, a team that played with a full Chinese class, showing the depth of the eight champions. In the first phase of the Chinese Super League, Guangzhou, playing at home, is still an opponent that teams should not underestimate.
Changchun Yatai, the newest team in the Chinese League last season, not only managed to keep their team name, but also announced 8 new recruits and veterans in one breath, and a series of moves also show that they are not only satisfied with the relegation mission in the new season. Yatai, which has been away from the Chinese Super League for many years, has also made full use of this break to play against strong teams. They defeated Guangzhou City 3-2, drew Guangzhou 2-2, drew Beijing Guoan 1-1, and drew Taishan 3-3 in warm-up matches with Chinese Super League teams, which is a very impressive manifestation.
Among the relegated teams, Dalian Ren has played the most warm-up games. This winter break, Dalian people's head coach and general manager has not been decided, rumors of "Xu Hong + Zhang Enhua" is expected to join the host, but did not get official confirmation. In the case of the outside world, Dalian people winter training is step by step, they first with the province of Liaoning All-China team and Liaoning Shenyang city played three warm-up matches, the record of 2 wins and 1 draw, followed by the Dalian people and Meizhou Hakka kicked out a high score of 5 to 5, the last two competitions, the team were 1 to 2 against the u22 national football team, to 0 to 3 against the Cangzhou Lions, suffered a two consecutive defeats in the warm-up matches. Now, the delay of the head coach and the three foreign aiders has a very unfavorable impact on the preparation of the Dalian people.
Other relegated teams also basically chose teams close to them geographically for warm-ups, such as Chongqing Liangjiang Athletic who drew 2-2 with Chengdu Rongcheng on April 3, and Henan Songshan Dragons, who won 2-1 on the road against Shaanxi Chang'an Athletic on March 20, for example. Hebei won 6-0 against North Polytechnic on April 2 at Langfang Stadium. Guangzhou City, on the other hand, competed with several teams that went to Guangdong for training, resulting in a 4-1 win over Wuhan and a 2-2 draw with Shandong Taishan, but lost to Shaanxi Chang'an Athletic, Changchun Yatai, and Chengdu Rongcheng in quick succession, making their performance extremely unsettled.
