Reporter Chen Yong reported that on the evening of September 7, the national team lost 0 to 1 in the second round of the top 12. After the game, public opinion was polarized. The crowds saw the loss, while more practitioners expressed acceptance. After all, the national football team had just suffered a disastrous defeat in the last game. If there is still a big loss in this game, 12 Not qualifying in the strong game is another matter. What kind of mentality the national football soldiers stay in West Asia for at least one month has really become a big problem.
Another controversy about this game is a speech by the head coach Li Tie at the press conference after the game. At the press conference after the game, Li Tie introduced or commented on the team’s positioning, player attitudes, major injuries, naturalized player performance, and arrangements for the next month, but his later remarks attracted controversy. :“I think the coach of the Chinese national team is for Chinese people. Only Chinese people can do this well, and I believe this team will get better and better.”
Such remarks may not be controversial at other times, but at the moment of two consecutive defeats in the top 12 of the National Football League, Li Tie’s remarks naturally seemed to stoke a hornet’s nest.
From a comprehensive public opinion point of view, there are many reasons for the current controversy and even criticism, which can be summarized as four:
First, in the history of the national team, the only time in the history of the national team rushed into the World Cup. The head coach was foreign coach Milu. On this night of playing the Japanese team, Milu, who also paid attention to the game, said that he was not happy that the Chinese team lost the ball. ；
Second, in the last 12 finals, the gap between Gao Hongbo and Lippi’s leading performance left the most intuitive impression on the outside world. As for how Lippi stepped down from the altar, that is another chronic problem of Chinese football-almost all coaches, regardless of foreign coaches and local coaches, are the result of anticlimaxes;
Third, in the history of Chinese professional leagues, fans tend to trust foreign coaches more;
The last part of the doubt comes from the comparison with the naturalized players. Naturalized players can be allowed to play in the selection of international football. Why is the position of the coach not a local coach? This also triggered resistance from fans who were dissatisfied with Li Tie’s use of naturalized players.
As far as Chinese football is concerned, if Chinese football wants to rise, it is naturally inseparable from the progress and promotion of the local coaches. For this, the Chinese Football Association has always clearly advocated the training of local coaches. Before the top 12 games, the Chinese Football Association The renewal of Li Tie also has this consideration. Its relatively high salary (compared to the previous national coaches) also has an element of motivating local coaches.
In fact, if Li Tie’s remarks were made when the team showed better performance (for example, when facing Japan to score points), or even if he made such remarks in a regular interview with the media, I am afraid it would not be good for such controversy. The timing of the first loss will undoubtedly intensify the outside world’s scrutiny of Li Tie. In future matches, if there are any problems with the national football team, it will be easy for the outside world to use these words to condemn, especially the current fans’ opposition to the locals. In the case of general distrust of the coach, this criticism will be very violent.
For example, in this Sino-Japanese war, compared with the complete defeat of the first battle, the external controversy has weakened, but this remark equals to Li Tie pushing himself to the forefront. In any case, objectively speaking, Li Tie’s remarks after the two-game losing streak of the National Football Team have caused controversy and even criticism. It is really normal, especially our culture is more accustomed to accepting humility and low-key.
In fact, we may also be able to examine Li Tie’s speech from another angle-these remarks, to a certain extent, show the self-confidence and personality of this domestic young marshal, and it is also his persistence and attitude towards himself. The strong maintenance of one’s own authority, to a certain extent, is actually positive for the national football team’s top 12 journey.
First of all, Li Tie said this because the questioner wanted him to evaluate Park Hengxu, the South Korean coach of the Vietnam team. Li Tie is actually a relatively sensitive person, and he expresses his thoughts directly. In other words, he often has a strong “counter-attack color” when answering questions from the media. At that moment, Li Tie continued his style.
Looking optimistically, Li Tie’s self-confidence and stubbornness, as well as his strong maintenance of his authority, are actually a chronic illness of most local coaches.
Compared with foreign coaches, local coaches naturally have advantages and gaps. The advantage is that they understand the players’ thoughts and thoughts better, but the gap is much larger. Looking back on the past, it is not difficult to find that the biggest gap is that the coaching environment of local coaches is generally bad. On the one hand, it is not easy to be trusted or not trusted at all. This was the case with Gao Hongbo in the last 12 finals. On the other hand, local coaches are more susceptible to interference, such as interference from the leaders of the Football Association, interference from other coaches, media, and fans.
Many local coaches fail not only because of their own business ability, but also because of their mental disorder. For this reason, if a local coach wants to succeed, he must be strong enough in his heart, and he must have the ability to eliminate interference and keep his heart.
In terms of history, coaches such as Gao Hongbo and Jia Xiuquan who have brought some achievements are extremely personal, and have never spared any effort to maintain their own authority. On the contrary, some coaches with good personalities have average coaching results.
There is another aspect that needs attention. The national football team played in the top 12 matches, and the overall situation is very unfavorable. The national football soldiers have been in West Asia for nearly half a month, and they are determined to stay in West Asia for more than one month. Month, it is possible to stay for more than two months. If they can win, the national football players can still face it positively, but after two consecutive defeats, the spirits of the national football players can easily enter a downward path. In this case, Li Tie needs to send a confident and resolute signal to the national football players. In addition to motivation, he also needs the entire team to better unite around the coach.
Of course, we would rather see the coach maintain a low-key and humble style while sticking to the ego, but this is obviously not Li Tie’s style.
In fact, for the current Chinese football, seeking to qualify for the top 12 matches may only be a dream, but there are still 8 games in the top 12 matches. The national football team needs to play the subsequent matches as much as possible, and it is far from being discussed. When changing coaches.
A comprehensive analysis of the two games directed by Li Tie. In the first game against Australia, Li Tie’s performance was problematic. He underestimated his opponent and overestimated himself. There were also improper use of people. In the second game against Japan, Li Tie’s thinking was pragmatic and clear. A lot: defend first, then counterattack, including the changes in tactics and formation brought about by substitutions, which also changed the situation on the field for a while. This game stabilized the precarious mentality of the original national football soldiers.
On the whole, although Li Tie’s speech is out of date, we still need to understand the text more comprehensively. His self-confidence and persistence may not be 100% able to lead the national football team out of the trough; but if even the head coach loses confidence and loses himself, There is no way to talk about the national football team going out of the trough.
Fundamentally speaking, performance is the first criterion for evaluating any coach, and to some extent it can even be said to be the only criterion. It doesn’t really matter what a coach says. The performance of his team is the core of public attention. Therefore, the game against Vietnam on October 7 and Saudi Arabia on October 12 are the real test of Li Tie. when.
As for now, of course, we still have to give the National Football Team and Li Tie more space.
