Recently, the news of the national football team training and preparation in the United Arab Emirates continues, according to the pre-match plan, Jankovic led the team to complete 3 warm-up matches, the national football team has achieved 1 win and 2 losses, the only opponent to win is the UAE lower league team, so the victory is not surprising, but the two defeats are more valuable for reference, if the loss to the 9th Oman in Asia can be understood, then the 2-goal reversal by the Hong Kong team is more unexpected, the outside world is not optimistic about the prospects of the Asian Cup, even if the goal of qualifying from the group may not be achieved.
According to the requirements of the AFC, the list needs to be submitted one week before the game, and Jankovic determined the 26-man squad he liked based on the warm-up performance in the first three games. It is also the first international roster for 2024. The goalkeeper position is Yan Junling, Liu Dianzuo, Wang Dalei, Jian Tao, the latter was selected for the first time in the national football team, and it was a surprise to the outside world to stay, there are 9 people in the back line, Wu Shaocong, Jiang Guangtai, Zhu Chenjie, Zhang Linpeng, Li Lei, Xu Haofeng, Liu Yang, Jiang Shenglong, Lin Liangming, the former is the only foreign player in the national football team, and Lin Liangming is mainly on the offensive side in the league, and this registration is registered according to the defender.
In terms of midfield, Wang Shangyuan, Xu Xin, Wu Xi, Wang Qiuming, Gao Tianyi, Xie Pengfei, Chen Pu, Wei Shihao, Dai Weijun, Liu Binbin, are all outstanding players in the league, the number is 10, it can be seen that Jankovic still hopes to seek a breakthrough in the midfield, and the 30-year-old international Li Ke is unfortunately out. On the front line, there are only 3 Zhengyin forwards, namely Wu Lei, Tan Long and Zhang Yuning, the latter has not long since his comeback, how the state is to be determined, Wu Lei and Tan Long are both 30 years old, especially Tan Long, who is 35 years old.
There is only 1 week left before the debut, and the national football team still has 1 warm-up game, no surprise, Jankovic will examine the strength of the main lineup, but considering that the opponent is a local club, it is not surprising that the big score will win, the coaching staff still hopes to help the players improve their self-confidence, after all, compared to strength, the player's will to win on the field is the key.
Qatar is the strongest opponent in the same group and is also a strong contender for the first place in the group, and the national football team needs to win the other two games to fight for the best group second place to advance to the knockout round. Once he fails to qualify, Jankovic's position will be unstable.
