In preparation for the tournament in Uzbekistan from 3 March to 16 March 2024, eight teams will participate, with the top four teams qualifying for the U20 Women's World Cup.
For this reason, the Chinese U20 women's football team recently played a friendly match with the Australian U20 women's football team, which was an important training. This competition is not only a contest of skills, tactics and physical fitness, but also a visual demonstration of the development of youth football in the two countries. With their passion and sweat, these young girls have shown the world the unlimited potential and hope of Chinese youth football.
In the first match on December 3, the Chinese U20 women's football team lost 1-3. However, after just three days, they defeated their opponents 3-1 in a friendly match. Such progress shows the infinite possibilities for the development of youth football in China.
The second game not only stabilized the backline, but also showed strong strength in attack. Yu Jiaqi assisted Xie Zongmei to score, and after a steal in the last minute of the game, she ran for a long distance and scored another goal from a small angle to seal the victory for the Chinese team.
The outstanding performances of these young players are not accidental. Many of them have gone through a long period of training and honing to be able to perform at such a high level of skill in competitions. This also reflects the solid foundation and good environment for the development of youth football in China.
The development of youth football in China has become the focus of attention in the global football community. The momentum of youth football in China is encouraging. Whether it is from the perspective of competition results, players' technical level or the overall development environment, it can be seen that Chinese football is moving towards a new stage. These young girls, like the rising sun, bring hope and vitality to Chinese football. We have reason to believe that in the near future, Chinese football will definitely occupy a place on the world stage and shine brightly.
