Title: The Light of Football in Qatar and the Challenges of Chinese Football.
On February 11, 2024, in the final of the Asian Cup in Qatar, the host Qatar team defeated the Jordan team 3:1 and successfully defended the Asian Cup championship again. This feat has made Qatari football a shining star in Asian football, but the situation of Chinese football is a little awkward in comparison.
Qatar's Success & Excellence:
In Qatar, football is not only a sport, but also a symbol of culture. This small Middle Eastern country is one of the best players in Asian football, despite having only 6,500 registered players. Among them, the establishment of the Qatar Aspire Sports Academy has contributed a lot. Founded by the Qatari royal family, this national youth academy has world-class training facilities and a coaching team, which has produced a large number of outstanding players for Qatari football. In particular, with the introduction of Ivan Bravo, the strategic development manager of Real Madrid FC in Spain, Qatari football has reached a new level.
China's Challenges and Reforms:
In contrast, Chinese football is facing many problems and challenges. Despite having more than 70,000 registered players, China has been unable to make a difference in Asia. The youth training system of Chinese football has always been a pain point, and the lack of an effective training system and training plan has led to poor youth training results. Li Bing pointed out that there are many aspects that need to be reformed and improved in Chinese football, including youth training, leagues, coaches and player mentality.
The gap between youth training:
The success of Qatari football stems from the establishment of the Aspire Sports Academy, while the youth training system of Chinese football has great shortcomings. In China, despite the large number of registered players, there is no effective training system. In contrast, Qatar's youth training system occupies an important position in all-round development, providing excellent conditions and environment for the growth of players.
League Differences:
The Qatar Football League has benefited from a reasonable naturalization policy and the success of foreign recruitment, actively introducing potential foreign players, and improving the strength and level of the league. The difference is that the development of the Chinese football league is lagging behind and there is no effective competition mechanism, resulting in a decline in the quality of the game and a decline in the state of players, which affects the development of the entire football industry.
The Coach Gap:
Qatari football has also achieved great success in the construction of the coaching team, bringing in a group of senior Spanish coaches, who have cooperated with the local coaching team to form a complete training system. In contrast, the coaching team of Chinese football has the problem of inconsistent level and insufficient training, which affects the overall quality and competitive level of the players.
Hope and Efforts for the Future:
If Chinese football wants to get out of the predicament, it must carry out all-round reform and improvement. The improvement of the youth training system, the improvement of the league level, and the strengthening of the coaching team are all keys. Only by cultivating more players with characteristics and improving their sense of competition and technical and tactical level can we make a difference in Asia and usher in new hopes and opportunities.
Summary: The success of Qatari football is a miracle and an effort. The challenge of Chinese football is a reality that requires us to work together to solve it. Only through continuous reform and improvement can Chinese football move towards a brighter future.
