Today, let's pay attention to the latest situation of the Chinese men's football team preparing for the World Preliminaries, and we have summarized two more effective information for you. First of all, the head coach of the national football team, Ivankovic, the original date of returning to China to prepare for the game will be slightly postponed, of course, the postponement of the return to China during this time is not particularly big, because the league is ongoing, so he can only come back to inspect the players, and he did not say too much other work can be done, that is, watch two less live games, he can also watch through video replay, this problem is not very big.
Ivankovic's two games against Singapore since taking charge have been mixed. The main thing is that the opponent equalized when he was leading 2:0 in the first game, which made Chinese fans a little dissatisfied and lost the excellent opportunity to qualify two rounds in advance. The big win in the second game, in fact, in the first 80 minutes, was still a trembling game, and to be honest, strictly speaking, Ivankovic's answer sheet was not able to satisfy the fans. The next match against Thailand will be very crucial, and if you win, the Chinese men's football team will qualify early.
In fact, last month, many domestic media people revealed that there is a high probability that it will be held at the Olympic Sports Center in Shenyang.
It is worth mentioning that the winning rate of the Chinese team in Shenyang is very high, from 1989 to 2015, our winning rate in the world preliminary tournament here is 100%, and in September 2016, we also drew 0:0 with the powerful Iranian team here. Therefore, the Chinese men's football team chose Shenyang as its home stadium to play this key battle that can be called a key decision to qualify, and it is also a very good choice.
Moreover, even in June, the climate in Shenyang is still cooler than in the south, which is also a certain disadvantage for the team from Southeast Asia in terms of climate adaptation. We still have to make the most of this home advantage. It is worth mentioning that Shenyang is also the hometown of Li Tie, the former head coach of the Chinese men's football team who has now been arrested and imprisoned. In addition, it is also the hometown of Song Kai, chairman of the Football Association.
Shenyang is a blessed land of Chinese football, the Chinese men's football team entered the World Cup finals for the first time, and the only time to qualify for the World Cup finals of the World Preliminary Round.
