3月约战新西兰,国足能实现“稳赢”吗?******
主帅虚位以待 热身先被安排
3月约战新西兰,国足能实现“稳赢”吗?
“消失”了近一年的国足,终于有了新动态。2月1日,国足热身赛计划终于尘埃落定,中国足协官方宣布国足将在3月23日和26日与新西兰国足进行两场热身赛。
时隔三年半,国足终于再次得到了国际A级友谊赛的比赛机会。
毫无疑问,与国际排名不如自己的新西兰进行热身,国足的目标就是赢球找找自信。但令人尴尬的是,虽然热身赛时间已经确定,但更加关键的球队主帅及集训成员的人选问题却尚未有明确答案。
2019年6月11日,国足曾在前任主帅里皮的带领下,在天河体育中心约战塔吉克斯坦。此后三年半的时间,国足再也未组织国际A级友谊赛。在备战40强赛和12强赛期间,也只是与几支中超球队或国字号梯队有过交流,热身效果很难得到保证。
在这种情况下,国足的此次热身赛机会显得尤为宝贵。目前,新西兰国家队世界排名第105位,国足则排在第80位。
从排名上看,国足有望通过两场热身赛找一找在12强赛中失去的自信,同时为新的世界杯周期开一个好头。
不过,国足要想赢下两场比赛,也并非易事。历史上,新西兰国家队与国足曾有过三次交流,国足均与对手1:1战平,难分胜负。此番作战,新西兰拥有主场加持,这将成为他们在比赛中的有利因素。
同时,球队人员构成的不确定性,更让国足难言“稳赢”。自去年3月底结束12强赛以来,这支最受关注的国字号球队近乎呈“解散”状态,近一年的时间里没有开展任何形式的集训。
直至今日,球队主帅由谁担任,仍没有人给出明确的答案。主帅迟迟未定,集训阵容的确定更是无从谈起。
从目前的情况来看,在扬科维奇确认担任U24亚运队主帅的前提下,李霄鹏有可能继续履行主教练合同,带领球队赴新西兰作战。但可以肯定的是,新一期国足集训队阵容,较12强赛相比,将有不小的“换血”。
去年的12强赛,国足阵容平均年龄接近30岁,更新换代势在必行。在最后几场比赛中,李霄鹏有意增加高天意、戴伟浚、朱辰杰等年轻小将的出场机会,就是在为新一期国足铺路。新的世界杯周期,新、中生代球员将挑起大梁。
12强赛的失利,让不少球迷4年的等待化为泡影。如今这支近一年未集训、主帅尚未敲定且面临更新换代的国足,想在“弱旅”身上取得“开门红”,恐怕也没有外界想的那样乐观。(记者 季禹)

中新网评:美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾******
中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后,美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕,众议院共和党领袖凯文•麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录,将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。
资料图:美国众议院共和党领袖麦卡锡。中新社记者 沙晗汀 摄由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素,众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中,美国民主党议员继续抱团,多轮投票中,一票不投麦卡锡,共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。
麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折,除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外,与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。
一方面,共和党党内反对者认为,麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱,无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府,另一方面,因为共和党的多数优势微弱,党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大,有利于他们巩固自己的选票。
此外,党内反对者也认为,自己的选票没有换取更多利益,希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步,比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。
作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物,众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任,选举几乎没有悬念。然而,麦卡锡此次为当选,不得不做出多个关键让步,其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制,使得众议长的权力被削弱,难以掌控众议院。
美国有线电视新闻网CNN称,麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步,这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。
这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下,党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上,美国两党相互拆台,陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内,也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系,相互对抗,选票变成了谋利益的工具。
从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举,“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈,长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力,其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。
两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病,美国所谓的“民主”形象,让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举,变成了政客们利益置换的游戏,进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能,不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。
House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy
(ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy".
The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader.
Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party.
On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration.
On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses.
Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees.
As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives.
But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker.
CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful.
This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally.
Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits.
From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public.
Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world.
The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
