Less than two months before the World Cup, China women’s football team entered a critical period of preparation, adopting stage assembly and warm-up matches. The rest of the time, international players need to maintain their status in their respective clubs, especially those who study abroad. Being able to play is the prerequisite for getting the national team’s call-up, otherwise they can’t guarantee their status. Shoupeng Wang and Tang Jiali are examples. Their long-term absence from club games led to poor performance, which was once abandoned by Shui Qingxia. With the recovery of European and American leagues and the opening of the women’s super league, international players.
At this stage, among the international players studying abroad, Zhang Linyan and Shen Menglu have played more brilliantly, especially the former, who scored goals continuously. After the first goal in 2023 in the last round, this round sent assists again to help the team win in a row. In the final battle of Swiss women’s super regular season, Cao Meng women’s football team played against Berne young women’s football team at home. The latter scored 27 points with 8 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses. Because it was 4 points ahead of Basel women’s football team, it locked in the fifth place at least and advanced to the playoffs in advance. The pressure of being a guest in this field was limited, as was Cao Meng women’s football team, which was more than one victory behind Zurich women’s football team and locked in the third place in the regular season in advance.
Therefore, both sides of the game were more relaxed. Zhang Linyan, who was a substitute in the last round of rotation, returned to the starting lineup. During the game, she was very active in the midfield, while the Cao Meng women’s football team used the home court to constantly put pressure on the young women’s football team. The latter’s defense line was flawed many times, and goals followed. After 90 minutes of competition, the Cao Meng women’s football team scored 8 goals, winning the final match with a disparity of 8-2, which ended the third place.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Linyan sent an assist again and helped Cao Meng women’s football team to complete the third goal in the 23rd minute. The final record of Cao Meng women’s football team in the regular season is 12 wins, 2 draws, 4 losses and 38 points. According to the Swiss women’s super schedule, the top 8 players will enter the knockout stage, and the Cao Meng women’s football team will also launch an impact on the champion, and the absolute main force Zhang Linyan will also usher in an intensive schedule.
On the one hand, avoid injuries while maintaining the state. After all, the World Cup is approaching, but also the position of the national team. On the other hand, if she can perform phenomenal performance in the knockout stage, then 22-year-old Zhang Linyan is expected to land on a higher stage at the end of the season, and she will go all out to strive for the early realization of the dream of the five major leagues in Europe and present a gift to Qingxia.
