Recently, after the end of the 27th round of the Chinese Super League, there will be a short "lull", because the international break is approaching, and the league must "make way" for the national team competition.
According to the arrangement of the Football Association, the new phase of the national football team will regroup in Dalian on October 6 to prepare for the match, and it seems that the matches against Vietnam and Uzbekistan on October 10 and 16 should be played at the Dalian Yupi Bay Football Stadium again! It is reported that there will be 24 players in the training squad, and coach Jankovic also decided to use 1/4 of the quota to the Asian Games men's football players, which means that at least 6 young players will enter the national team when the next training camp comes.
Among this group of outstanding young players, Dai Weijun and Zhu Chenjie should have the greatest probability of being selected, if it were not for the Asian Games competition tasks, I believe their names would have appeared in the national football squad long ago. In addition, there is another young player, Wu Shaocong, who is also likely to be selected, although he missed the Asian Games because of the match in the Turkish League A League, but he will definitely be able to return in the World Preliminary Round in November, and the arrival of Wu Shaocong can also improve the strength and rotation selection of the team's back line to a certain extent.
The match against South Korea on November 21, the first home match of the national football team in this World Qualifiers, was a difficult opportunity to train young players, let them feel some of the feelings of playing against these top Asian players, and learn more about the strengths of their opponents. From the historical record, the national football team played against the South Korean team in the tournament with fewer wins and more losses, and for a while it was a little afraid of meeting the South Korean team, and fans also ridiculed "Korean phobia". However, after the end of the 2018 World Qualifiers, the national football team has never met the South Korean team in the tournament again, and the last meeting was the national football team with the last laugh, I hope that when we play again, we can also achieve a good result!
