In the last warm-up game, the national football major tune is impossible, and it is better to be scolded now than to be scolded in the world preliminaries

Tonight's warm-up between China and Ukraine is the last warm-up match before the start of the World Preliminary Round of 36 next month. It should be said that it was also the last chance for Jankovic and the national team to try and make mistakes before the competition.

This year, the national team has scheduled eight warm-up matches, and tonight's match against Uzbekistan in Dalian is the last. In the first seven matches, the national team won 3, drew 2 and lost 2, the statistics seem good, but in fact, considering the specific opponents of the match, it should be said that it is not good. Therefore, for a period of time, the national team style has not been highly evaluated, and there has been a lot of ridicule and ridicule on the Internet. Especially in the draw at home to Malaysia and the loss to Syria, the national team has attracted a lot of criticism.

Chinese football is in an extraordinary state, and the national team is also floating in it, which is normal to attract all kinds of discussions. However, the World Qualifiers will still be played as scheduled in November, and there will be no change in the national team's journey. Therefore, at present, the national team and its team can only prepare without distractions.

Now, the only thing left to test the preparation is tonight's last warm-up game. After the first seven games, the work of the coaching staff should be almost carried out, and now it is impossible to make major adjustments, and you can only use the last trial and error opportunity before the big game.

In history, China and Ukraine have met 14 times, with China winning 6, drawing 1 and losing 7, scoring a total of 17 goals and conceding 19 goals. In terms of historical head-to-head results, the two teams are equal, and the Chinese team is slightly inferior. So, tonight's game is hard to predict for both teams. However, everyone in this game is a warm-up for the World Preliminary Round, and victory or defeat is not the focus of consideration, and they all need to use their opponents as a grindstone to test their preparation results.

This time in Dalian, China and Uzbekistan played Vietnam, and both won 2-0. It's just that in the game, the Uzbekistan team has a greater advantage on the field and has more control over the game. For the national team, such a game is somewhat like finding a match with a strong team in advance.

Warm-up games can be made and we hope that the national team will seize and take advantage of this opportunity. ——Because the warm-up game was scolded, it was always better than losing in the World Preliminary Round.
