Tianjin Media: China U22 faced Thailand 18 times but failed to score, and needs to develop more scoring points

October 15th: Yesterday, the second warm-up match between China U22 and Thailand U23 ended in a 0-0 draw. Regarding the problems exposed by China's U22 in this battle, "Tianjin Daily" published an article to analyze and give suggestions.

In the previous first match between the two teams, the Chinese U22 men’s football team defeated the Thai team 3-1. The two teams met again yesterday. The Chinese U22 men's football team did not send all the main players. Wang Yudong and Kuai Jiwen both sat on the bench. In the first half of the game, Liu Chengyu's header hit the opponent's goal post, but unfortunately he failed to score. In the second half, the Chinese U22 men's football team replaced nine players at once, including Wang Yudong, Kuai Jiwen, Li Xinxiang, Baihe Lamu and other main players. In the whole game, the Chinese U22 men's football team took 18 shots and had a ball possession rate of 62%, but they were never able to convert their advantage into goals.

After experiencing the defeat in the first game, the Thai team's defensive intensity has improved significantly. How the Chinese U22 men's football team can develop more scoring points when facing a defensive team is the next problem that the coaching staff needs to solve. According to the previous draw results, the Chinese U22 men's football team will be in Group D with Iraq, Australia and Thailand in the U23 Asian Cup. Breaking through the group is not easy.
