For Gao Hongbo did not choose to let the four returnee players, including Zhou Yi, return to China to participate in the game, the media in China supported and recognized, and everyone thought that there was really no need to recall them to play such a game that was not a critical battle in such a tight time.

Considering the jet lag and the waste of energy on long-haul flights, even if they are called back, they may not be able to perform at a high level.

Moreover, in the past, the Chinese team always let those players who played overseas fly back to play a friendly match at every turn, which was criticized by the media and fans for a long time.

How can such mistakes be continued again and again and become a "tradition" of Chinese football?

More importantly, in everyone's opinion, the Chinese team is currently in a good situation in the top 10, and there is almost no suspense about qualifying. This time it is a home game against Qatar, which is ranked second from the bottom, can it still not win?

Even Gao Hongbo has this idea, thinking that in the case of the first place in the group, there is no need to let all the returnee players come back to participate in a game, and it is better for them to train and rest in their clubs.

Even domestic players alone may not be able to win against Qatar, which is not in good form at home. Besides, he's not a returnee player who hasn't been called, didn't he call back a He Ying?

With the state of He Ying's last national team game, this time is also worth looking forward to.

In this way, the Chinese national team, which is almost an all-Chinese class, welcomed Qatar, the second-to-last place in the group, at home.

Before the game, both the media and the fans were very optimistic about winning this game, and the media and fans said that they should not always take the credit for winning the game on the heads of returnee players, our local players are also very powerful, the higher the professional league in China, the better, and the level of local players who train with high-level foreign players has also made great progress, this game is a great opportunity to show the world their style.

The national team as a whole, winning is never the credit of one person or a few people, while desperately praising Zhou Yi, don't ignore the local teammates around them. They may not be as good as the European players who can enjoy the cheers and attention, but they are just as indispensable.

There is no media that compares the returnees of the national team to the eye-catching parts of a beautiful house, and the players of the domestic league to the cornerstone of the house, buried deep in the ground, unknown but very important to the house. We call on everyone to give confidence and support to the players in these national leagues.

These truths are quite correct, and the words are beautifully spoken, which arouses strong resonance.

Everyone expressed their expectation that the whole Chinese class would put on a wonderful performance on the stage of the top 10 competition.

But just 20 minutes into the game, the Chinese team conceded a goal first......

They were used by Qatar to score a goal on a counter-attack!

In their home stadium, in front of tens of thousands of Chinese fans who were full of confidence and expectation for them, the Chinese team lost the goal and fell behind!

All of a sudden, the atmosphere became a little different from before.

The whole stadium was filled with relaxation and anticipation, and everyone was cheering for the national team while waiting for the goal.

The results are good now......

The goal they were expecting came but it was their enemy Qatar!

“...... The Chinese team made mistakes when defending, and the cooperation between the defenders and the goalkeeper was not tacit enough...... "Commentator Liu Hong was helpless.

After conceding the goal, the players of the Chinese team desperately launched a fierce attack on the Qatari goal, and Qatar, which had already led by one goal, was also very content, quickly recycled the defense, and shrank in front of their own goal, intending to maintain the lead of this one goal until the end of the game.

Until the end of the first half, the Chinese team still failed to equalize.

After the start of the second half, Gao Hongbo's adjustments at halftime did not make any difference.

At least everyone sees that the Chinese team's offense is still quite chaotic, there is no system and rules at all, it is simply to hit wherever you want, without purpose and direction.

He Ying was at the front alone, running in vain again and again, but no one could send the football out.

At this time, the narrator Liu Hong said: "...... I think everyone must miss Zhou Yi very much at this moment, right? When Zhou Yi was on the court, our offense was not like this......"

He said the voice of many fans, and on the Internet, there are already impatient fans who scolded the performance of the national team: "It was so bad before the game, but the result was that it was so vulnerable without returnee players!"

"I don't understand, why don't you recruit Zhou Yi and them?"

Later, seeing that he couldn't get the ball in front of him, He Ying, who had no chance, began to retreat, from a scorer to a person who took the ball and organized the attack. After all, in this national team, his technical level and ability are the highest.

After he retreated to midfield, he did help the Chinese team stabilize the midfield and create some chances. But it's a pity that the other forwards who are now replaced by the national team can't seize the opportunity, whether it is Gao Lin or Wu Lei, they have not been able to convert the passes given to them by He Ying into goals.

Of course, their performance has also been criticized by online fans.

In the end, the chaotic midfield organization and the weak Chinese team lost the game when they were highly favored before the game, and they lost 0:1 at home to Qatar, which was an upset.

When the whistle blew at the end of the game, the Chinese players hung their heads, completely unexpectedly that they would lose the game at home.

At the beginning of the game, they came with the determination to win. After conceding the goal, they still want to come back and win. With fifteen minutes remaining, their goal had changed to "as long as they could equalise". But after the game, even that goal was not achieved......

This is indeed too miserable.

The Chinese internationals had bewildered expressions on their faces, wondering why they lost at home to Qatar.

They are the first in the group, and Qatar is second to last in the group, how big is the difference in strength?

After the game, He Ying, who was out of breath, was interviewed by reporters.

He was more tired in this game than in the previous games, because he did the work of several people alone, in the front line he was responsible for scoring He Ying, after retreating to the midfield, he became the "Zhou Yi" who wanted to organize the attack, and when Qatar played the counterattack of the Chinese team, he had to play the role of "Yang Muge" with excellent physical fitness and speed, responsible for intercepting Qatar's counterattack.

Can you kick it like this without getting tired?

"I'm disappointed that I didn't win the fight......," he said, shaking his head.

The reporter asked: "I was favored before the game, but I lost the game, what do you think is the reason for this?"

He Ying took a few breaths and said, "The reason is very complicated, and I can't say it clearly. But for me personally, I don't feel like I've been good enough and that's why I lost. ”

As a player, He Ying took the initiative to take responsibility, and even though he didn't really need to do it, he did it anyway. It's not that he's putting on a show, it's that he's demanding of himself, and he does think that as the only one of the returnees who came back to play, the Chinese team didn't win the game, and that's his responsibility.

Gao Hongbo took all the responsibility for the loss on himself at the post-match press conference: "The failure to win was a matter of tactics and personnel, and as the head coach, I took full responsibility. ”

A reporter asked: "Does the problem with the personnel arrangement mean that all returnee players have not been recruited?"

Gao Hongbo shook his head and denied: "It has nothing to do with this." ”

"So if the returnee players are recalled in this game, will the victory be guaranteed?" the reporter asked.

Gao Hongbo continued to shake his head: "You can't make such a guarantee, football games are not so simple, not like this, just like that." ”

After the game, Gao Hongbo's on-the-spot command and starting lineup arrangements in the game were criticized by the media. Some media questioned why Gao Hongbo only summoned one He Ying to return to China, while none of the other returnee players were called. Some media questioned his substitution adjustment in the game, and some media simply questioned whether Gao Hongbo's use of the all-Chinese class in this game was for some people to stuff money into the opportunity to enter the national team gilding, after all, the national team is now with excellent results, and the national team has changed from a rancid steamed bun that everyone didn't want before to a fragrant dumpling, and an international player quota has suddenly become valuable.

This defeat was too sudden for the Chinese team, and it was too sudden for the Chinese media and fans, but this defeat was too unreasonable against the background of not falling behind Japan and winning Australia.

Some people think that this failure is because Gao Hongbo did not choose to recruit all overseas players, completely forgetting that the pre-game public opinion can be one-sided support for not recruiting overseas players, and to give trust and respect to the whole Chinese class. Now the responsibility for losing is all on the muddy all-Chinese players who can't support the wall.

Some people also think that the failure is not because of the lack of overseas players, and the strength of the all-Chinese players is definitely not as deficient as reflected in this game, the main problem is that the head coach Gao Hongbo, a cook, did not use good materials and cook well. So it reflects the low level of the manager.

Some people think further, thinking that since the level of domestic head coaches is limited, should the Chinese team enter the World Cup finals in Brazil in the future, should a high-level international well-known head coach lead the team?

A failure seems to have destroyed all the warmth and tacit understanding that had been established before.

Of course, there are also reasons why Gao Hongbo's own level as a head coach is limited, but in fact, I am afraid there are deeper reasons.

That is, when everyone's appetite has been raised by the previous victory, how to face this huge psychological gap?

There is a new problem with the Chinese team, or Chinese football, that is, a kind of "blind optimism and self-confidence". If Chinese football was blindly inferior in the past, then it has now gone from one extreme to another.

The historic gold medal won in the Olympic Games seems to make the majority of Chinese fans and media think that the golden age of Chinese football has come, with three wins and one draw in the first four games of the top 10 matches, ranking first in the group, which has made many media and fans cheer, and also made people in the football industry very optimistic about the future of the Chinese team, and strengthened their previous judgment, feeling that Chinese football will stand up from now on.

What's there to worry about playing at home against a second-to-last Qatar?

But in fact, I don't know how many can clearly realize that the current achievements of the Chinese team do not truly reflect the level of Chinese football, it can only be said that Chinese football, including him Gao Hongbo himself, was lucky to meet the "golden generation" that fell from the sky at this time, and it was those young players who changed the results of the Chinese team.

But they can only improve the competitive performance of the national team, but they cannot change the face of Chinese football as a whole.

Without this golden generation, what will Chinese football become?

It's still the same, nothing will change.

These people can only win glory for China on the football field, but they can't change Chinese football from the system, culture, and economy.

Therefore, whether it is the Olympic gold medal or the group top in the top 10, it is not the victory of Chinese football, but the victory of the golden generation of players, but they are cultivated by European football, and their success actually has nothing to do with Chinese football, and it does not prove that Chinese football has stood tall and walked away from now on.

In fact, Chinese football is still the street rat that everyone shouts and beats. This can be seen from this defeat at home to Qatar......

Whether it is extreme low self-esteem or extreme self-confidence, in the final analysis, it is because there is no real self-confidence. This is the impact of the image of Chinese football that has been poor and weak for decades.

If Chinese football does not undergo some fundamental changes, if you want to achieve anything in the future, you can only count on the favor of God and the emergence of a group of talented players. But God will not always favor China, the foundation of Brazilian football is so good, talented players have emerged one after another, but there are not many people who can really be called the "golden generation", look at the changes in Brazilian football since the World Cup in 2002, it is really embarrassing. Even a football kingdom like Brazil will have a situation of green and yellow, so what qualifications does Chinese football have to sit back and relax? )
