Original title: The National Football Association played in Doha in the first two rounds and hopes to share the home court with Australia

According to the plan, the coaches, athletes and other management staff of the Chinese men’s football team should arrive in Shanghai on August 17th and 18th, and then start a new training session to prepare for the Qatar World Preliminary Round 12. Match. Affected by the epidemic, the first round of the Australian team’s home match with the Chinese team, and the second round of the Chinese team’s home match with the Japanese team are basically determined to be held in Doha, Qatar on September 2 and 7. Therefore, the Chinese Football Association is also stepping up the implementation of the team in the near future. The schedule of the west expedition was arranged and the charter flights were booked for the team. It is reported that there is a high probability that the Chinese team will participate in the first two rounds of the top 12 in the same venue in Doha.

It is understood that “safe triumph” is the goal of the Chinese team in the top 12 competition. Like the last half of the top 40 games, Chen Xuyuan, the chairman of the Chinese Football Association, will personally lead the work team to accompany the team and create various convenient conditions for the national football team’s preparations and competitions through on-site office work.

As of the afternoon of August 17th, Beijing time, the AFC, the Qatar Football Association, and the Australian Football Association have not yet confirmed in writing the Australian VS Chinese team’s competition plan for the first round of the top 12. However, due to the issue of applying for the “home field” of the third party member association country (region), the relevant top 12 participating member associations have established close contact with the International Relations Department of the Qatar Football Association, so the Chinese Football Association has also obtained relevant information. . Judging from the current situation, Qatar basically agrees to the request of the Australian team and the Chinese team to have a “home court” in Doha, Qatar. Affected by time constraints and other factors, the Chinese Football Association had to activate relevant emergency plans in advance. In other words, according to the first two rounds of the top 12 matches are scheduled to be held in Doha to implement the Chinese team’s preparation and visit plans.

It is understood that the current preparation and support team of the Chinese Football Association has begun to implement various preparatory work according to the team’s preliminary plan for Doha on August 26. Work on booking charter flights has also started. If there is no accident, the team will take a chartered flight on the 26th from Shanghai to Doha.

Unlike the top 40 matches, the Chinese Football Association is the organizer of Group A matches, the top 12 matches are based on a home and away system. Therefore, even if the Chinese team set their home stadium in Doha, in addition to providing convenience for the visiting team (such as the first home opponent, the Japanese team) in terms of personnel entry, exit and reception, the rest of the competition organization, management, and reception of competition officials will be handled by the visiting team. The AFC is responsible.

Specific to the first round of the away game against the Australian team, the Chinese team must finalize the details of the team’s schedule during the match based on the game information confirmed by the Australian Football Association. As for the accommodation, transportation, and training arrangements during the period in Qatar, affected by the epidemic, they must obey the arrangements of the host Qatar.

How to arrange the venue and kick-off time for the first two rounds of the top 12 matches of the Chinese team deserves special attention from the team. It is understood that the Australian Football Association has already submitted an application to arrange the first round of Australia and China matches in a local air-conditioned stadium. The Chinese Football Association will also arrange the second round of “home court” matches in the same stadium according to the first round of venue arrangements. In this way, the Chinese team will be more adapted to the conditions of the venue.

It is understood that of the 8 venues that will host the World Cup in Qatar next year, except for the Las Abu Abadi Stadium, the remaining 7 are equipped with cooling technology equipment, which is commonly known as air-conditioning equipment. Among them, the Khalifa International Stadium, Janub Stadium, Education City Stadium and Ahmed Bin Ali Stadium have been officially put into use. The Australian team’s application for the home field will have a high probability of being produced in these four stadiums.

Of course, the Australian team and the Chinese team must also guard against accidents. That is, the Qatar Football Association has not promised to provide “air-conditioned stadiums” to teams that apply to participate in the top 12 matches. The relevant communication is still ongoing.

In addition to the competition venues, the Chinese team’s other logistical support work during Qatar is also quite interesting. It is understood that the Chinese Football Association has recently launched the security work for the top 12 national footballs based on the experience of the top 40 national football teams. It is also because the organizer, co-organizer and general organizer of the top 12 matches is the AFC, so the Chinese Football Association does not need to bring business and broadcast team professionals to accompany the team in this trip to West Asia. However, in order to do a good job in the protection of the national football, the association has established a number of functional working groups including epidemic prevention, competition, media promotion, logistics, and foreign affairs to accompany the national football team throughout the expedition.

The training notice shows that in addition to the 31 internationals, there are a total of 24 members participating in the training, including coaching team, management team, medical care, logistics, epidemic prevention, and equipment management. The size of the working group of the Chinese Football Association is somewhat smaller than that during the top 40 matches, but there are still about 20 people accompanying the team, and there are also individual Chinese chefs. Calculated in this way, the total size of the Chinese team delegation to the West Expedition is about 75 people. In the words of the team’s related personnel, “The strength of the top 12 competitors is much higher than that of the top 40 opponents. The Chinese team faces more difficulties in preparing for the battle than their opponents. But everyone is going all out for one goal. Do the work solidly and carefully. Safety and triumph is an important goal of the team in this expedition.”
