The women's national team of the new preparation cycle made its debut in Xianghe Base on the 19th. The training list includes 7 overseas players, namely Wang Shuang, Li Mengwen, Shen Mengyu, Shen Menglu, Wu Chengshu, Wu Rigumula and Tang Jiali. In this issue, there are five veterans over 30 years old, namely Zhang Rui, Wang Shanshan, Zhang Xin, Wu Haiyan and Gao Chen. The youngest player is Liu Chen, a goalkeeper born in 2006. Most of the players participated in last year's Women's World Cup, Hangzhou Asian Games and women's Olympic preliminaries.
Yesterday, Uri Gumula showed a picture of training in the gym on his personal social media and wrote "good luck". Urigumula, who plays for the Central Coast Mariners of the Australian Women's Super League, scored 8 goals in 25 appearances, and won two awards, the team's Golden Boot and the fans' Player of the Year. Shen Mengyu and Shen Menglu, who played for Celtic in the Scottish Women's Super League, have just helped the team win the league championship this season. Shen Mengyu became the first Chinese women's football player to play more than 100 games in the European top league.
The failure of the women's national team last year was not entirely due to its poor strength. Some problems occurred in organization, management, training, employment and strategic choice, which led to a systematic collapse. After the new coach team and management team took office, the first signal released was that the door of the women's national team was open to all qualified players. For example, Peng Shimeng, the main goalkeeper of the 2019 Women's World Cup and the Tokyo Olympic Games, retired from the national team for several years and returned.
