The "barbaric" coach who instigated young players to kick others finally got a "ticket" from the Chinese Football Association.
The official of the Chinese Football Association announced on February 21 that Wu Gaojun, the coach involved, was suspended for one year nationwide, and Shenyang Aosa Qixing Club was disqualified for three months nationwide. Previously, in the 2024 Cornerstone · Yuhao Cup National Youth Winter Training Invitational Tournament U10 age group game held in Beihai, Guangxi, when the head coach of Shenyang Aosa Qixing (a former player of Liaoning Team of the Chinese Super League) fell behind 0-6, the small players on the command field kicked people, causing the team's players to make dangerous fouls and hurt people for many times.
"Can't kick the ball, can't you kick people?" "If he misses you, you'll kick him!" It's hard to imagine that the screeching voice in the online video is actually from a professional coach with a career in the Chinese Super League. What kind of values is it to transmit to small players? What kind of football concept is conveyed? It is rude and amateurish to instigate small players to kick people like this. After all, the motivation and action standard of kicking that cannot be tolerated even on the field should never appear in a national youth winter training invitational match. The "barbaric" coaches and clubs were punished, which was really their own fault.
At present, there are still voices from all walks of life that the punishment of coaches and clubs involved is light. Let's leave this aside for now. In fact, before the Chinese Football Association issued the punishment result, Liaoning Football Association and Shenyang Football Association had also issued relevant punishment decisions to the coaches and clubs involved. The management organization has been punished layer by layer, the industry people have many criticisms and doubts, and the public opinion has continued to denounce. Attitudes from different dimensions converge to deliver a clear consensus that youth football, as the cornerstone of China's football cause, must have a good ecological environment. If you play football cleanly, you should start from the doll.
This is the basis for establishing the correct values and competitive consciousness of young players. Before players' skills and abilities, the first thing to establish is civilization and norms. Whether you are engaged in football, basketball, or any field other than sports, it is very important to buckle the first button of your life. Since the development of modern football, no matter what the scope and level of the game, fair and friendly competition is a core. If you can't kick the ball, you will kick people. If you fall behind, you will have to be angry and bad. It will affect the rhythm and atmosphere of the game, cause injuries, and it will be difficult to win the respect of your opponents.
This is also a torture and pressure on the coach's personality and team ethos. The ball is like a person. A person who does not respect his opponent and has no basic civilized morality and is engaged in youth football education can hardly expect to bring out any good team and achieve any good results. Tactical fouls and malicious fouls are two different things. Stopping an attack is totally different from deliberately kicking someone to hurt someone. It is impossible for a coach to fail to understand these reasons. I'm afraid that what he is "betting" is that the cost of making mistakes will not be too high, and that this is "ordinary". But in essence, it reflects its slackness in sports morality and discipline, and its deviation from modern football education and football law.
More importantly, the clean play of teenagers is of great significance to the current and future Chinese football. At present, the Chinese football industry has experienced a washing up, and all circles are reflecting and exploring, gathering consensus and starting again. Among them, it is an important consensus to do a solid job in youth training and develop youth football. Under this realistic social background, we should pay more attention to children's individual basic skills, basic participation norms, and the correct understanding of football as a team sport. Rather than let some barbaric and rude voice and behavior make youth football a mess.
The "barbaric" coach was punished, which conveyed a clear attitude of focusing on the youth football ethos and reshaping the youth football ecology. Starting from the childhood, Chinese football should first have a correct football civilization and good development philosophy. Only by refusing to be brutal, eliminating the miasma, and practicing "internal skills" in a down-to-earth way, can China's football cause walk on the road of healthy and sustainable development.
