Dai Weijun's header extends the scoreline.

In the last match against India, the national football Asian Games team won 5-1 in front of 34,588 live spectators, but in fact, in the process of the game, the Chinese team still encountered trouble.

After conceding a penalty in the first half, China also accidentally conceded a goal before half-time and entered the second half with a 1-1 draw. While everyone was sweating for the team's prospects, China scored four goals in the second half to win 5-1.

Head coach Jurjevic said in his post-match press conference that winning the first game of the Asian Games is very important to boost the team's confidence, "The first game is not so easy because everyone will be watching this game, which also puts a lot of pressure on us. ”

'At half-time, I said to my players – I have a lot of confidence in you guys and I want you to play as well as the last half in the second half and keep it that way until the end of the game.' In the end, the Chinese team did the same.

With a victory over India, the strongest team in the group, the Olympic team's qualification is already assured, and Gyurjevic, who previously shouted that he hopes to play seven matches, also needs to start studying his knockout opponents.

According to the schedule, if the Chinese team successfully secures the first place in the group, the 1/8 final will meet the third place in Group B or Group D, and the coaching staff is currently very concerned about the progress of these two groups.

In the first round of Group B on the 19th, the Vietnamese Asian Games team defeated the Mongolian Asian Games team 4-2; Saudi Arabia drew 0-0 with Iran Asian Games, and members of the Chinese team's coaching staff went to watch the match.

In this match against Myanmar, the national football Asian Games team continued the 4-4-1-1 formation of the previous game, the only change was that captain Zhu Chenjie was replaced by Huang Jiahui.

Zhu Chenjie missed a penalty in the last game, but the lack of starting this game was not because the coaching staff was dissatisfied with his form.

According to the surging news reporter learned from Shenhua Club, Zhu Chenjie had some strain in the second half of the last game, so from the perspective of protecting the players, the coaching staff of the Asian Games team did not let him start in this game.

After all, in the case that Wu Shaocong was not allowed by the Turkish club to participate in the Asian Games, the reserve of players in the central defender position in the Asian Games was not sufficient, and a healthy Zhu Chenjie was the key to the team's impact on higher rankings.

After the start of the game, the national football Asian Games team quickly opened the situation, and in the 15th and 19th minutes, Tan Long twice headed through the opponent's goal. Subsequently, Wang Zhenao and Dai Weijun scored successively, and the game was only half-time, and the Chinese team took a big 4-0 lead.

In the second half of the game, the national football Asian Games team continued to take the initiative on the scene, and under the lead, the coaching staff also substituted a number of players, and the final 4-0 score was maintained until the end. Official statistics show that the number of live spectators of this game has also reached 36,888.

As a result, the national football Asian Games team successfully won two consecutive victories in the group stage of the Asian Games. The team's final group game will be played on 24 September against Bangladesh.
