On April 7, 2024, Beijing time, the National Football Federation officially announced the details of the fifth round of the World Preliminary Round of 36, the national football team will sit in the Shenyang Olympic Sports Center to face the Thai team, and the kick-off time of this game is 8:00 in the evening, for domestic fans, the time is also relatively good!
Presumably fans know that after the national football team won the Singapore team at home, the team's points and rankings have officially surpassed the Thai team, and the current situation is that as long as they win a game, the national football team will lock the top two positions in the group, and once they lose, the national football team is very likely to miss the boy's qualification, so the Sino-Thai battle on June 6 is also known as a "life and death battle" by fans!
In the face of such a key game, I believe that Ivankovic must still focus on stability, and young players should still use him, but for the choice of veterans, Ivankovic should also be cautious, such as Zhang Linpeng and Wu Xi, although their personal ability has already declined, but the rich experience of the competition is here, especially this key "life and death battle" , they need some help, even if they can't start in the national team, but at least they can be on the bench, and there are experienced veterans, which is more or less better.
In addition, due to Wu Lei's suspension, and missed the home game against the Thai team, then in his position, Ivankovic needs to reconsider the candidate, from the current situation, Fernando should be the most suitable, since the match with the Singapore team in March, Fernando has indeed shown the ability to be stronger than many local players, especially the breakthrough to create a kill is worthy of recognition. In Wu Lei's absence, Fernando can also go from the fullback position to the striker position, he is competent, I only hope he can continue to play well in the next game against the Thai team, and help the national football team win successfully, and do not disappoint the trust of the fans and Ivankovic!
