October 8th The first FIFA Women’s Champions Cup is scheduled to start today. As the Asian champion, the Wuhan team will face the Oceania champion Auckland United at home in the first round. According to the "Tonight News" report, according to the schedule, if the Wuhan team can pass the first two rounds of tests, they will face the European champion Arsenal Women's Football Team in the semi-finals.

FIFA officially created the Women’s Champions Cup in March this year, using the old version of the Men’s Club World Cup as a template. Among the six participating teams, the champions of Asia and Oceania will participate in the first round. The winners will face the African champions in December. The teams that ultimately advance will join the top four champions of Europe, Central and North America, and South America. The final stage of the competition adopts a centralized competition system, with semi-finals, third place match and championship match respectively. Two of the semi-finals are scheduled to be held at the end of January next year, and the final champion is scheduled to be decided on February 1 next year.

As the defending champion of the Women’s AFC Champions League, the Wuhan team will start from the first round. Taking into account the team's recent intensive schedule, in order to retain its strength as much as possible, the coaching staff made major adjustments to the lineup in the FA Cup quarter-finals held in the middle of last week. Core players including Wang Shuang and Yao Wei were given rotation opportunities and were in good physical condition. The Wuhan team's opponent, Auckland United, is a new women's football team established in 2020. They have won the Oceania championship in the past two years, but the process was not easy. In the previous preparation process, the Wuhan team has conducted a comprehensive analysis of the player characteristics and technical and tactical styles of Oakland United. According to Chang Wei, opponents are generally tall and have outstanding confrontation capabilities. At this point, the girls must be prepared for difficulties.

According to the schedule, if the Wuhan team can pass the first two rounds of tests, they will face the European champion Arsenal in the semi-finals. This is also the direction of the whole team's efforts. Chang Wei hopes that the girls can put down their burdens and strive to achieve their promotion goals: "As professional players, representing China and Hubei and Wuhan, we will definitely try our best to play every game well."
