The children on the plane cried all the way, and the complaint of national football defender Liu Yang gave the Chinese Football Association a resounding slap in the face. The national football team didn't even have a charter flight, and as soon as this happened, the hearts of the fans were half cold. Liu Yang's sentence is ostensibly complaining that children can't rest when they cry, but what they actually expose is the deep-seated problem behind Chinese football - they don't pay attention to it from top to bottom! Fans feel aggrieved, it is obviously a round of 12 match, a game of honor, but even the most basic travel guarantee is not good, do you want to let the players play in exhaustion? Does this make the players work hard, or does it make the players "sleep"?
In recent years, Chinese football has made it "tired if you are not tired". Liu Yang's complaint shows us that when a national team is fighting in the international arena, it is forced to stay up for 24 hours on an ordinary flight because of the charter flight problem. Let the athletes go on the field with black circles under their eyes, it is a miracle to win this game, and it is inevitable to lose. Liu Yang complained that the child was crying and couldn't rest, which is actually a kind of helplessness, who doesn't want to have a good rest before an important game? Not to mention a strong opponent like Australia, the players are almost nervous, and now they are crying by the child, and they can basically directly "sleep boxing" against the Kangaroo Army.
The Football Association's decision can be described as a careful calculation, saying that it is to save expenses, but it is really "picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon". Your players are not resting well, and their form is sluggish, where do you get good results? Isn't sports competition just about the slightest difference in strength and state? It has long been a practice for domestic clubs to charter flights, and when it comes to the national team, it picks up the door. To put it bluntly, it's not that you don't have money, but you don't have the heart, you don't have the heart to win, and you don't have the heart to have a good state. Not to mention that some public opinion also "accuses" Liu Yang of "hypocrisy", which is a bit ridiculous, people are not asking to sit in first class to enjoy VIP treatment, people are hoping to maintain a competitive state after a long-distance flight to ensure that they win glory for the country on the field, you say this is not too much, right?
Looking at other countries, the Japanese and South Korean teams are competing in the competition, which team is not an all-round guarantee charter flight? There is only one purpose, to allow players to prepare for the game without any worries. If Chinese football wants to catch up with the top level in Asia, can these basic guarantees be learned? Don't always think about saving a little money and spending a lot of money, but you can't even play a game well, is this a big price? Some people say, why are players so delicate, don't you think they used to be the same as civil aviation? But now that the competitive environment is different, the world is advancing, shouldn't we also keep pace with the times?
Many people ask, where has the professionalization of Chinese football been? It can be seen from Liu Yang's complaints that the layman's affairs in charge of the insider still exist. Professional football is about professional operation, which is to fully ensure the state, preparation and performance of athletes, rather than making them worry about food, shelter and transportation before the game. Besides, professionalism originally includes the management and protection of players, and if this is not done, how can the results go up? Professional players are never "squeamish", but adhere to professionalism and the pursuit of winning the game. Players are covered in mud, bleeding and sweating, winning or losing are acceptable, but you don't even do the basic preparations, so who is to blame for losing the game?
Finally, I have to appeal to the Chinese Football Association, since you want to make Chinese football brilliant, you have to show some sincerity. Traveling in the team is not just a matter of "saving money", but a matter of attitude, respect for the players, and the importance of football. Liu Yang's complaint seems trivial, but in fact it says a big question - where is our understanding of football? If you always think about "will", then the results of the game can only be "will".
So in the end, I would like to ask: In the face of the helplessness of the national football players, do you think the charter flight is really just a trivial matter? What do you think about this?
