The Chinese team conducted pre-Asian Cup training at the No. 3 training ground of Qatar University on the morning of the 11th local time. Before the start of training, striker Wu Lei, who is one of the team's five captains, was interviewed.
Regarding the previous training and warm-up situation of the whole team, Wu Lei commented: "The warm-up game is not particularly good in terms of results. Some time ago, we mainly focused on physical problems, so there is still a certain reason for this (the result of the warm-up match). Since arriving in Doha, the players have slowly entered the rhythm of the game, both physically and athletically, and it is getting better and better. ”
Regarding whether the head coach reminded the players in terms of the details of preparation, Wu Lei replied: "In fact, from the first day of the training camp, the head coach has always emphasized to everyone that including the previous warm-up game, all the purpose is to prepare for the first game (of the Asian Cup), so we have been preparing for a long time. The first game was also very crucial, it was very important for our whole qualification situation and for the confidence of the team. So in terms of preparation, everyone is the best prepared. ”
As for his state or foot feeling, Wu Lei commented: "The state of the warm-up game is not the best, and I can also experience the current state, but as I said earlier, after coming to Doha, the whole team has changed the environment, and after coming to the competition area, the rhythm of the game, including the training here, feels better and better." When it comes to the actual first game, I'm sure I'll be able to show my best form. ”
Regarding the national football team's loss to the Hong Kong team in the warm-up match 10 days ago, Wu Lei said: "I did see some ** on the Internet. For players, as a professional footballer for so many years, there are many times when facing the best, facing difficulties or pressure, not only this time, but we have been in such an environment for so many years. For us players, there should be such a mental preparation, and I believe that we can all deal with such a first-class environment and convert it into motivation. ”
Regarding the effect of his third participation in the Asian Cup on the whole team, Wu Lei believes: "Indeed, most of the players in this team are participating in the Asian Cup for the first time and have not experienced the highest level of events in Asia. The players who have participated in the Asian Cup a lot of times in the team also often communicate with the younger players to help them relax their minds and turn pressure into motivation. ”
Regarding whether there are any personal expectations for this event, Wu Lei's answer is: "I don't think much about my goals, mainly consider the team's results, and hope that we can catch up with the results of the previous session and go further than the previous session."
