On Friday night, the Chinese men's national team led by Jankovic will sit at home against the Myanmar men's team, relying on this to earn points and face, not only refusing to play the Argentine men's team, but also not wanting to be invited to the first Central Asian Cup.
Just before the national football team played, the Central Asia Cup had opened early, and the top favourites Iran men's football team directly played a brutal score in the first round of the group stage, and finally beat Afghanistan 6-1 to easily get off to a good start.
Originally, the Central Asian Football Federation invited Russia and Thailand to participate with wild cards, but finally Russia temporarily withdrew, Thailand declined, in order to complete the 8 teams, but also invited the Chinese men's football team and the Oman men's football team, and finally Oman agreed, but the Chinese Football Association refused, on the grounds of playing friendly matches with Myanmar and Palestine.
Now, the national football team has not participated in the catastrophe, because the competition will be placed in the same group as Iran, and the big defeat is inevitable, and the face will be unbearable.
As Asia's second-ranked powerhouse, Iran faced Afghanistan, ranked 155th in the world, in the first round of the group stage, and the team ended the game early.
Azmoun scored in the opening 20th minute, then Taremi scored twice in seven minutes, Iran was 4-0 up at the end of the first half, and in the 52nd minute of the second half, Taremi scored another hat-trick, Iran had already scored five goals in 32 minutes.
After that, both teams scored a goal each, and Iran finally locked the score at 6-1, setting a record for the largest point difference since the start of the Central Asian Cup.
According to statistics, Iran had 61% of the ball in the game, 22 shots on goal and 9 shots on target, and finally scored 6 goals, which was very efficient, while Afghanistan only had 3 shots and 1 shot on target, and did not fight back.
After the change of coach, Iran has maintained the original squad team, so the strength is still very strong, and the national football team has completely failed to play against it, and it is even easy to suffer a big defeat.
Fortunately, after the national football team refused to participate in the Central Asian Cup, the next step is to play a friendly match with Asian fish belly Myanmar, and sit at home, hoping to win the opponent by a big score. The last time the two teams met was in 2019, when the national football team played at home, and finally beat Myanmar comfortably 4-1.
According to the plan, CCTV arranged CCTV5 to broadcast the friendly match between the national football team and Myanmar live, which will be the debut of new coach Jankovic at home, and the national football team is getting closer to the first victory of 2023, after a winless record of 1 draw and 1 defeat away against the New Zealand men's team in March.
