In the East Asian Cup in July, Jankovic's national Olympic team will travel to Japan to compete with Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong. This time, the Football Association gave up the national football team to participate in the competition, but only selected Wu Xi, Zhang Linpeng, Zhang Yuning, Dai Weijun, Zhu Chenjie and other players to go to the national Olympic team for "support". The reinforced national Olympic team, from the perspective of player strength, is no less than the national football team.
Sure enough, the squad reinforcement played an effect, and the national Olympic team easily defeated changchun Yatai, the fourth place in the Chinese Super League last season, 2-0 in the warm-up match. According to the news of Beijing Youth Daily, in this warm-up match, the players who scored goals were Dai Weijun and Sun Qinhan, and Zhu Chenjie, Zhang Linpeng, Dai Weijun, Wu Xi, Zhang Yuning and other international players were given playing time.
From this warm-up match alone, it cannot be seen that the national Olympic team has too much advantage, but at least this strengthened national Olympic team did not concede a goal against the Chinese Super League team, kept a clean sheet against the opponent, and scored 2 goals. This is a clear difference from the three games in the Dubai Cup, because in the Dubai Cup, the national Olympic team conceded goals in all three games, but it was still an embarrassing result of being scored by the opponent.
In the East Asian Cup, the South Korean team is the national football team, the Japanese team is the national youth team, and the Hong Kong team is the main force. The strength of the three opponents is not weak, at least compared with the lineup of the national Olympic team, the two traditional strong teams of South Korea and Japan, the lineup of this game is not weak. The South Korean team is the main squad participating in the World Cup, and the Japanese national youth team is a youth team that has repeatedly defeated the top teams in Europe and the Americas in various previous competitions. Therefore, Jankovich cannot take the enemy lightly.
However, judging from the current squad of the national Olympic team, Jankovic is not without the possibility of winning. On the offensive end, Yangkovic has Fang Hao, Zhang Yuning, Guo Tianyu and other powerful players; in the midfield position, there are Wu Xi, Dai Weijun, Chen Guokang and other players; the back line has Wu Shaocong, Zhu Chenjie, Wen surnamed young general, Jiang Shenglong, Ye Lijiang, Han Jiaqi and other outstanding young forces, plus Zhang Linpeng, who is old and strong.
This set of squad system is already the strongest squad of the national Olympic team, and Jankovic's team has gradually entered a better situation. Veteran players with a group of young people to play, this East Asian Cup is worth looking forward to. Of course, this East Asian Cup is also a good opportunity for the national Olympic team to test the players, and it is also Jankovic's "turnaround battle". As the head coach of the national Olympic team, Jankovic has been in office for several years, and has not yet led the team to perform in the competition, if the East Asian Cup can be a blockbuster, it may directly become the head coach of the national football team and coach the new national football team to compete in next year's China Asian Cup.
