In the stage of preparing to participate in the Asian Cup, the Chinese men's football team played a round of in-depth and practical warm-up matches with the local second division teams of the United Arab Emirates. This is crucial for the Chinese men's football team to grasp the results of training and explore the shortcomings.
Looking back at yesterday's event, the Chinese team showed a good competitive state. In the second half of the game, they successfully scored five wonderful goals with precise tacit coordination and efficient attacking methods, and the whole game ended perfectly with a score of 5:1. However, despite this, there is still a big difference between the overall performance of the Chinese team in the first half and the second half. In the initial stage, the Chinese team built a 4-0 advantage with its excellent performance, but as the second half of the game progressed, the form dropped significantly. Not only was he pulled back by his opponent, but his own offensive rhythm was also flat, far less flashy than in the first half. In the Asian Cup, the maximum number of players allowed to register for each team is 26, which means that each team can select the best players to participate in the competition. For the Chinese men's football team, these 26 players are very likely to be the starting lineup for next year's Asian Cup.
Before the game, the coaching team will conduct intensive training for the players in order to have a more comprehensive and accurate understanding of the current competitive state of the players and their potential. During this process, the coach will conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the technical and tactical literacy of the players, and compile the competition list accordingly. Normally, all 26 players in the training camp will be included in the official competition list, but there is also the possibility of minor adjustments. The only player who may change is Li Ke, who has temporarily left the team due to personal reasons. Although he missed some of the games, his quality and ability were recognized. Therefore, until the last minute, he still has a chance to take the place of a player and become a member of the final squad for the Asian Cup. However, the specific adjustment plan still needs to depend on the careful consideration and scientific planning of the coaching team. No matter which player is finally selected, I believe they will go all out and look forward to helping the Chinese men's football team achieve excellent results in the Asian Cup.
In the format of this Asian Cup, the Chinese men's football team was divided into a group with considerable challenge. The group includes the hosts' strong rivals, Qatar, who won the tournament last year. In addition, the Lebanese and Kyrgyzstan teams in the West Asia region are also included. From the perspective of overall strength and points ranking, the Chinese team ranks second in the group. The top two teams from each group will advance directly to the next round, while the bottom six third-place finishers will be compared and analyzed, leaving only the four best third-place finishers to advance to the knockout stage and achieve the round of 16. In the past Asian Cup, the Chinese team fought bravely in the group stage, and finally won the second place with outstanding performance and successfully advanced to the knockout round. In the knockout round, they defeated the Thai team 2:1 and advanced to the quarterfinals.
Unfortunately, in the quarterfinals, the Chinese team lost 0:3 to the Iranian team and finally stagnated at the height of the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup, which is undoubtedly the best result achieved by the Chinese men's football team in the Asian Cup in history. Although it has not yet reached a higher level of honor, the efforts and progress of the Chinese men's football team are still worthy of our recognition and encouragement. They need to continue to be proactive, improve their skills, and look forward to winning more glory for Chinese football in future competitions.
It has been more than 40 years since the men's team joined the Asian Cup series, with disappointing lows and exciting victories, but there have been countless defeats on the way to the quarter-finals. So far, the breakthrough results in the Asian Cup have been led by foreign coaches, the most famous of which should be Coach Pig Gen, who has served as the coach of the Chinese men's football team since 1992, and has been highly praised by both foreign media and local public opinion. However, during this period, the Chinese men's football team also suffered many defeats, the most representative of which was the three consecutive setbacks in 1986, 2007 and 2011. During this period, the Chinese men's football team served as the coach of the team with local coaches, but they failed to make it to the top eight, and the difference in results is suffocating.
Despite this, with Jankovic taking over the helm recently, fans are looking forward to whether he can continue to write a new chapter. As a senior coach, Jankovic has a lot of coaching experience, and his understanding of football and on-the-spot command ability are enviable. However, the challenge he faced was not only from the outside world, but more importantly, it was necessary to analyze the current situation of the Chinese men's football team in order to develop an effective training plan and tactical concept that fit the team's characteristics. In addition, he also needs to pay special attention to the all-round construction of the team and the excavation and training of young players, so as to accumulate strength for the future development of the Chinese men's football team. Only by achieving the above requirements can the Chinese men's football team continue to maintain strong competitiveness in the journey of the Asian Cup and bring greater glory to the country.
A few days ago, Chen Yong, a senior reporter of Football News, pointed out in his personal column that the strategic goal of the Chinese men's football team in the Asian Cup is clearly set to advance to the quarterfinals. However, it is worth noting that this is not what Jankovic himself envisioned. The assessment of the current strength of the Chinese men's football team, especially the success rate against Southeast Asian powerhouse Maldives, makes him well aware of the difficulty of reaching the quarterfinals. Therefore, according to the requirements of the previous guaranteed quarterfinals, Song Kai is very likely to have set this goal as a hard indicator of his tenure, which is undoubtedly a severe test for Jankovic's future work. Judging from the historical record of recent years, Song Kai hopes to maintain the competitive level of the Chinese team in at least the quarterfinals of the Asian Cup after taking office.
In order to finally achieve the arduous goal of advancing to the quarterfinals, the Chinese team needs to go all out and move forward steadily. However, the road to glory is not easy, and even in those exciting moments, we must be aware of the problem – there is still a large gap in the quality of international football's superpowers. Therefore, the Chinese team still needs to make 100 times more efforts and sweat endlessly to realize this magnificent ideal.
The process of the Chinese women's football team rising and leaping to new heights in the difficult situation is remarkable. Prior to this, Song Kai, the former chairman of the Chinese Football Association, set a goal that the Chinese women's football team must achieve, that is, to successfully enter the Olympic Games. Regrettably, the final result did not go as expected, and Coach Shui Qingxia failed to successfully solve this thorny problem for the first time, which caused her to quickly lose her position as coach. Now, Jankovic is the new coach of the Chinese women's football team, and the pressure on his shoulders is heavy, and he is under the pressure of his predecessor being replaced because he did not meet the Olympic goal. If he can't lead the team to the quarter-finals of this World Cup, will he suffer the same struggles and troubles?
Reaching the quarterfinals of the World Cup is an insurmountable peak for the Chinese women's football team. Throughout the past, the best record of the Chinese women's football team in the history of the World Cup has only stayed at the fourth place, and in recent years, it has been difficult to even reach the top eight. Therefore, Jankovic is bound to think carefully about how to further improve the overall strength of the team, do a good job of perfect tactical deployment and strategic planning, and strive to ensure that the team can achieve this lofty pursuit. If Jankovic is unable to lead the team to the quarter-finals of this World Cup, he may be under heavy pressure and face a serious existential crisis. However, if Jankovic can give full play to his talents in the difficult situation and help the Chinese women's football team achieve impressive results, then he will surely lay a solid foundation for the long-term development of the Chinese women's football team.
