The national football Asian Games team won 2 wins and 1 draw in the group stage and successfully qualified. This result is undoubtedly a good start for the team and makes players and fans more optimistic about the team's outlook. However, in the final match against Bangladesh U23s, Djurjevic fielded a substitute. This game made the players lose a lot of confidence, and no one expected that the opponent's strength would be so strong.
The Asian Games team will face Qatar U23 at 19:30 Beijing time on September 27, and face the West Asian team again. At the last Asian Games, the national football Asian Games team also performed well in the group stage, but was eventually eliminated by Saudi Arabia. Qatar Under-23s also had a mediocre performance in the group stage, not winning the match, only relying on a draw to advance. What is even more surprising is that this Qatar Asian Games team is not a post-99 age player, but is composed of the Qatar National Olympic Team in 01. It is the same level of team as the Chinese Olympic team, that is, the team coached by Cheng Yaodong.
Although the age of the players is on average, Qatar U23 is 3-4 years younger than the national Asian Games team, but the strength is definitely not to be underestimated. They have previously beaten South Korea Under-23s 2-0, showing their tactical style and strength to restrain the national Asian Games team.
This match is undoubtedly an important challenge for the national football Asian Games team. The team needs to regain confidence in the game and show its quality. Instead of worrying too much about the strength of your opponent, you should focus on improving your own capabilities. In this match, the national football Asian Games team needs to have clear goals and go all out to win.
Such a match against Qatar U23 undoubtedly sounded the alarm for the players of the national football Asian Games team. They can no longer underestimate the strength of their opponents, but also remain confident and calm. Only by facing every game with the right mentality and all-out fighting spirit can we have a chance to win and further improve the strength of the team.
A decisive match is coming, and this match is extremely fortuitous, adding more pressure to the national football Asian Games team. In such a situation, they need to defend well and face a passive situation in the field. The main squad for the last game will be discarded, and Djurjevic will send a real main squad against the opponent. In this match, the national football Asian Games team restored the three attacking tridents of Tao Qianglong, Tan Long and Dai Weijun, and the two wingers will support Tan Long. However, the national Asian Games team is not better than their opponent Qatar in terms of technical strength, so they need to play simple and effective football, and Tan Long is still their first attacking point. His heading ability and rich game experience will be a valuable asset for the national football Asian Games team, helping them to win.
On the back line, the national football team faces some difficulties. In the last match, Zhu Chenjie was injured, and his recovery from injury is not optimistic, and he is likely to miss the quarterfinals. For the national football Asian Games team, this news undoubtedly has a significant impact. Jiang Shenglong will be paired with Huang Jiahui, their central defender combination is not perfect, coupled with the sharp forward line in Qatar, the national football Asian Games team may face a more passive situation. Although Zhu Chenjie is only 23 years old this year, he has a lot of experience in the national championship competition, and has barely rested in only a few seasons, and injuries have always haunted him.
In the match between the national football team and the Asian Games team against Myanmar, Wang Zhenao's outstanding performance with one pass and one shot was eye-catching, and he became another change of trick and laid the foundation for his fame. Now, the national football team is about to face Qatar, and the offensive end plays a crucial role in this crucial showdown. However, to win against their opponents, the national Asian Games team needs to do two things well on the offensive end.
The national Asian Games team should stick to the tactic of playing high and high, while making smart use of set-piece opportunities. There is no doubt that set-pieces are often a powerful weapon for teams to score into the opposing goal. The Asian National Football Team can take advantage of the characteristics of the players in the team to create more scoring opportunities through accurate passing and excellent aerial receiving ability. The tactic of holding high and playing high also helps to control the pace of the game and reduce the opponent's chances of counter-attacking.
Secondly, the national football Asian Games team can rely on players with strong personal abilities such as Dai Weijun and Wang Zhenao to solve the problem by going it alone. The Qatari team has relatively older players and there is a certain gap in physical fitness. Therefore, the national football Asian Games team has an advantage in physical confrontation, and can effectively break through and destroy the opponent through the advantage of personal technology and speed. Players like Dai Weijun and Wang Zhenao are the most promising candidates for the national football Asian Games team to create a threat by playing alone.
We must not lose sight of our strengths, as we did against Bangladesh. Qatar Under-23s have an experienced squad that will play with physical confrontation. Therefore, the national football Asian Games team must keep in mind the advantages they have and make good use of them in the game.
In the last match of the national football Asian Games team, Gyurjevic said that he was satisfied with the game. If the national football team can successfully qualify, the quarter-final match against South Korea U23 will be an intensity matchup comparable to the final. For the Asian Games team, the goal cannot be just to qualify from the group, and Qatar U23 is a key challenge.
In such a game, the experience of three over-age players, Gao Tianyi, Tan Long and Liu Yang, will play an important role. The more high-intensity this kind of competition, the more valuable the experience will be. Their presence not only gives more guidance to young players, but also allows them to step up at critical moments.
Wang Zhenao will once again show his strength and become famous on the stage of the Asian Games. The national football Asian Games team needs to do two things in attack: insist on playing high and make good use of set-piece opportunities; Give full play to the individual abilities of players such as Dai Weijun and Wang Zhenao to solve problems by going it alone. At the same time, they should also remember not to forget their own strengths, and be good at using their physical advantages to compete with their opponents. If qualified, the national football Asian Games team will usher in an intensity battle comparable to the final, this time the goal is not only to qualify from the group, but to win glory for the country and win the battle!
