In 2022, it is bland for the national football team and has become a spectator of the World Cup. The last time the national football team played the World Cup was in 2002, but also borrowed the East Wind of the Korea-Japan World Cup, originally the national football team hoped to borrow the East Wind again and rush into the 2022 World Cup, but the whole plan made people feel a little helpless. Since Lippi led the team to achieve relatively good results in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers, the national football team has the opportunity to go further, allowing Lippi to impact the 2022 World Cup with a squad led by naturalized players.
Unfortunately, now a chicken feather, Lippi is angry, the local manager is conservative, the players are good at protective reception and return passes, and the players who are bent on charging such as naturalized internationals and Dai Weijun are very lonely. Obviously, the national football team needs to change in tactics and consciousness, and it must come up with enough enterprising desire. The 2023 Asian Cup is an opportunity for the national football team to prove its strength again, this time naturalized players hope to get rid of the shackles and hope to start at the same time.
According to the event arrangement, the 2023 Asian Cup has changed, the venue of the game has been confirmed not in China, the national football team has lost its host status, and it has not been eligible for the identity of the seeded team of the event, South Korea may become the host, they have officially confirmed the application to host the 2023 Asian Cup. In the last Asian Cup, the national football team drew a fantasy group, and South Korea, Kyrgyzstan, the Philippines divided into a group, which can be called the last signing, and finally easily advanced to the knockout round with the second group, 2-1 small victory over Thailand in the 1/8 final, and 0-3 defeat to Iran in the 1/4 final.
The grouping situation of this Asian Cup has changed, and it is difficult for the national football team to draw the upper lottery. In the past two days, FIFA has released the latest edition of the world ranking, the national football team fell to the world's 78th, Asia's 11th, the Asian Cup will be divided according to the world ranking. According to the current latest world rankings, the national football team has entered the ranks of the second gear of the Asian Cup, and the 24 participating teams of the Asian Cup have been born before, and the detailed latest classification situation is as follows:
First-tier teams: Iran (23rd in the world), Japan (24), South Korea (28), Australia (39), Qatar (49), Saudi Arabia (53)
Second bracket teams: UAE (69), Iraq (70), Oman (75), Uzbekistan (77), national football team (78), Bahrain (85)
Third bracket: Jordan (86), Syria (89), Palestine (94), Kyrgyzstan (95), Vietnam (97), Lebanon (100)
Fourth bracket: India (104), Thailand 111, Hong Kong (145), Malaysia (147), Indonesia (155), Tajikistan (108)
The lottery rules for the 2023 Asian Cup are basically the same as those of the previous edition, with 24 teams divided into four tiers and drawn into 6 groups, and the promotion system of each group is the same as that of the previous edition, with the top two of each group directly advancing to the round of 16, and the last four third-place teams in the group also advancing. It seems that there is basically no pressure for the second-gear team to participate in the national team, but from the perspective of the sub-file situation of the 24 teams, the worst group of the national football team is to encounter Japan, Jordan, thailand, such a group combined with the state of the top 12 matches, the national football team is difficult to qualify.
The good thing is that the national football team will not repeat the mistakes of the top 12 in the Asian Cup next year, and may become more subjectively strong, led by the main lineup of 4 stars in Liuyang, so that Wu Lei, Axon, Alan, Luo Guofu, 4 players with higher levels who stay in Yang will all be reused.
Recently, Luo Guofu has proved that he still has a strong competitiveness in the Bajia, there is no physical problem, and has played 12 games in the past month and a half, of which 11 starts, scoring 2 goals and standing in the Bajia; Axon played 9 games for Baliga side Gremio; Alain has just joined Fluminense and will also find his form in the Brazilian League, they are all foreign aides to rub shoulders with the Brazilian league, and they all hope to help the national football team to achieve a good result in 2023 as a main player. If the 2023 Asian Cup can successfully get rid of the shackles, while reusing 3 naturalized internationals who coexist in strength and status, the worst group of the national football team can also qualify.
