Ivan: Wu Lei showed his leadership temperament! Playing Thailand at home to make up for the impact of his absence

On March 26, Beijing time, in the fourth round of the round of 36, the national football team defeated Singapore 4-1 at home. At the press conference after the game, the national football coach Ivankovic said that the first half was equalized by the opponent's lightning, and there was actually not much to correct, but the international players gradually matured, and when it came to the match with Thailand in June, Ivan said that he would use the collective to make up for the impact of Wu Lei and Li Yuanyi's suspension.

Ivan thanked the players for their efforts and dedicated the victory to all the fans, "With the support of the fans, we feel extra motivated. ”

In addition, Ivan revealed that after the draw with Singapore in the last round, the Football Association, including the leadership, gave the team a lot of support, so that the team could quickly get rid of the dilemma of the away draw and win the opponent at home.

However, Ivankovic said that the opponent's performance was also tenacious, "They are calmer than us mentally because they have nothing to lose, they are more relaxed on the court, so this victory is not easy to come by." ”

Wu Lei, who scored 2 goals and 1 assist, won the best player of the game, Ivankovic said that although football is a team sport, Wu Lei, as the captain, reflects his leadership temperament, "He can get the best player, absolutely deserved." ”

Speaking about the lightning equaliser in the first half, Ivankovic thought it was caused by the players' lack of concentration, "But I didn't criticize the players too much in the half, there wasn't much to correct, just let the players stick to our style of play, play at their own level, believe that we can win, and our players are gradually maturing." ”

In the next round against Thailand, Wu Lei and Li Yuanyi will be suspended, Ivankovic said that this will have an impact on the national football team, "We are very clear about the goal of playing Thailand in the next round, that is, to win, but I will go to further understand the situation of Chinese players and make up for the impact of Wu Lei and Li Yuanyi's suspension as a whole." ”
