Wang Dalay, one of the leading stars of Chinese soccer, criticized the reality of Chinese soccer.

China's Sina Sports highlighted Wang Dalay's interview on the 13th (Korea time). Wang Dalay pointed out the problems of the Chinese Super League in an interview.

"In terms of the intensity of the intercontinental economy, Japan, Australia, and Saudi Arabia are considered strong in Asia. We lack a sense of fierceness. The Chinese Super League is not strong in this area, so it is not helpful for us when we play in the World Cup qualifying round. He said the Chinese Super League lacks more intensity than the leagues of other countries.

Wang Dalay is a goalkeeper who has only played in Chinese Super League including Shanghai Shenhua and Shandong Taishan since his professional debut with Shanghai Rencheng in 2006. Since 2012, he has played 41 A matches for the Chinese national team.

He pointed out that the current Chinese national team needs players who have experienced stronger soccer. Wang Dalay said "I hope young players can play abroad and come back and play when the national team needs them. Playing abroad can be as intense as the World Cup qualifiers. Players from Australia and Japan are also overseas. The same goes for many Indonesian players. We also hope that young players will have a better understanding of soccer as they play abroad."

The Chinese national team has not progressed steadily since participating in the 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup. In the third Asian qualifying round, much attention was paid to China's chances of advancing to the World Cup finals, but it failed to advance to the World Cup finals by finishing fifth in Group C. With this elimination, hopes for the World Cup finals have completely disappeared, confirming the failure to advance to the tournament for the sixth consecutive time.




Song Kai, president of the Chinese Football Association, said, `The national team has performed poorly because of poor leadership. The goal of the game was not achieved, and the players were not properly nurtured"In the past, China was regarded as the best technical team in Asia. But now it has fallen into third- or fourth-rate football in Asia. There is no comparison between Australia and Japan." Likewise, Wang Dalay insisted that young players should leave the Chinese Super League in order for Chinese soccer to escape its current level.

However, it is unclear whether Wang Dalay's wish can be achieved. Wang Dalay said, `Wang Yu-dong and Liu Cheng-yu have no problem playing in Europe at all. Since the 2000s, all players have been able to play in Europe. No player has played well in European soccer since Urey. Chinese soccer still seems to have a long way to go.
