Chinese Women’s Football Team Lost 17 Goals in Three Games in the Olympic Games

by admin

[Epoch Times, July 28, 2021](Epoch Times reporter Li Rongshi comprehensive report) The third round of the Tokyo Olympic Women’s Football Team, the Chinese women’s football team lost to the Netherlands 2:8, completely bid farewell to the knockout round. This is not the first time that the Chinese women’s football team has been out of the Olympic group stage, but it has lost 17 goals in three games, creating a record that is difficult to break. Faced with the continuous improvement of the European and American football, the fans have to admit that the once “sonous roses” has gradually become a second-rate or even third-rate team in the world.

The Chinese women’s football team once had a dazzling history. In 1996, they won the silver medal in the Atlanta Olympics, and they won the second place in the 1999 World Cup in the United States. They are two minutes away from the world championship. At that time, the overall strength of the Chinese women’s football team was regarded as the world‘s top, winning the reputation of “sonous rose”.

However, as the golden generation ages, the Chinese team does not pick up. The 2000 Sydney Olympics stopped in the group stage; the 2004 Athens Olympics, the first match was defeated to Germany by 0:8, setting the record of the most miserable loss of the Chinese women’s football team in the world competition. This defeat completely stunned the Chinese fans. Where did the once “clangorous rose” go?

In fact, with the increasing popularity of European and American football sports, it has gradually become professionalized. Countries have a large pool of talents. However, the Chinese Women’s Football League still retains the semi-professionalization of a professional sports school. Since the 1999 Women’s World Cup, the Chinese women’s football team has never reached the semi-finals in the World Cup and the Olympic Games.

Lost 17 goals in three games

A total of 12 teams participated in this Olympic women’s football competition, which were divided into three groups for single round-robin matches. The top two in each group and the two best thirds will advance to the knockout rounds. The Chinese women’s football team is in the same group as the World Cup runners-up Netherlands, Brazil and Africa’s Zambia.

In the first match, facing the world‘s seventh-ranked Brazil team, the Chinese women’s football team lost 0:5. If it weren’t for the crossbar and goalposts to “help”, they might lose more. For the Chinese women’s football team, if you want to qualify, the next two games are not to be missed.

In the second battle, for the Chinese women’s football team ranked 14th in the world, it should be certain to win Zambia, which is only ranked 104th in the world, and they lost to the Netherlands 3:10 in the first match. But what was unexpected was that the Chinese team was pulled four goals in a row by their opponents with a 3:1 lead, and the two teams finally drew 4:4.

In the last round, against the Dutch team ranked 3rd in the world, the Chinese team was able to contend with their opponents in the first half, and temporarily fell behind 1:3. In the second half, the Chinese team’s defense line was completely blown, and then it was poured into five. The ball was finally defeated by 2:8.

In the end, the Chinese women’s football team had 3 games, only 1 point, 6 goals, 17 goals, and the group was bottomed out. After conceding 8 goals in a single Olympic game again in 17 years, the Chinese women’s football team has conceded 17 goals in the group stage, which also set a new Olympic goal conceded record.

The gap between women’s football and the world’s top teams widens

Throughout the three group matches, the gap between the Chinese women’s football and the world‘s top teams has further widened. It is difficult to use bad luck or improper tactics as an excuse, that is, the skills are not as good as others, and it should not be an accident to miss the knockout. For female football fans, forget the clanging rose. It should be more realistic to set the goal of qualifying for the Olympics.

Women’s football coach Jia Xiuquan said when talking about his three years of coaching: “I lead the team to qualify for the Women’s World Cup, which is one of the best in Asia. There are only two places in Asia at the Olympic Games. We grabbed one. Do you think I am successful. Still fail?”

A well-known Chinese football reporter said angrily, don’t tell me in the future that the Chinese women’s football is the “figure sheet” of Chinese football. Can this women’s football represent the Chinese women’s football? A team organized and commanded by people who don’t even have a face, you count on them to “have a face?”

Some mainland media reported that Jia Xiuquan’s list of women’s football teams was not set by Jia Xiuquan, but was appointed by a number of leaders to allow related households to join the team to balance the sports record points of the provinces in the National Games. Relatively speaking, “domestic” coaches are more obedient and controllable, while those with strong abilities are not easy to be manipulated.

This is not the first time that this kind of Chinese “characteristic” selection of players has appeared. In fact, look at the football development of neighboring countries Japan and South Korea over the years. Regardless of whether men’s football or women’s football, the fundamental problem in Chinese football is still the system.
