Xinhua News Agency, Jugang, Indonesia, August 28 (reporter Lin Deren) through the 1:0 victory in the semi-final, the Chinese women’s football team successfully entered the Asian Games final, only one step away from the goal of winning the championship. After the semi-final, Jia Xiuquan, the coach of the Chinese team, said that the victory was certainly gratifying, but the exposed problems needed to be summarized. Facing the Japanese team in the final, the Chinese team needed to play its own advantages.
The Chinese team occupied an overwhelming advantage in this competition, but the opportunity for many goals did not turn into goals, which also became an urgent problem for the Chinese team. “Breaking intensive defense is a difficult problem all over the world. We have created many opportunities, but how to turn it into a goal requires the players to think deeply. Winning is gratifying, but we will face many problems when we grow up, and we will go all out to prepare for the finals.” Jia Xiuquan said.
The Japanese team that once won the World Cup championship of women’s football is currently the most powerful team of Asian women’s football. Although the Japanese women’s football team who came to this Asian Games did not bring all the main force, the team’s strength is still very strong. For the upcoming final, Jia Xiuquan said: “In terms of skills and tactics, we will make targeted arrangements according to the characteristics of the players. Maybe our style is different from Japan and South Korea. We will highlight our own style. As long as the style comes out, we will not be afraid of playing any team. I hope the old team members can really shoulder the responsibility of cohesion and the young team members can catch up quickly. The most important thing in these days is the recovery of the players’ bodies, and then unify their thinking.”
For the Chinese women’s football team, Jia Xiuquan is full of hope. He believes that the inheritance of the old women’s football tradition is an important driving force for the team to move forward. “The old players play a good leading role. The young (players) keep up. Although they are worse than this team or that team, I believe they will rise again after a virtuous cycle. I still want to thank the women’s football team. The team members gave me the greatest support, from all aspects, the input of training into the competition, and so on. In fact, it is mainly the efforts and efforts of the players. They have made a lot of efforts. It is what they deserve to get to this point.” Jia Xiuquan said.
