After the national football team defeated Thailand 4-1 at home, coach Ivankovic and the Chinese coaching staff Zheng Zhi, Chen Tao and Shao Jiayi all got a short rest. It is worth mentioning that Zheng Zhi, Chen Tao, and Shao Jiayi, three Chinese coaching staff, appeared in Germany collectively after leaving the national football team. Appearing in Germany with the above three coaches is also a new generation of local coaches led by Mao Biao, and these local coaches appeared in Germany collectively, which should be arranged by the Chinese Football Association.
The Chinese Football Association hopes that the new generation of local coaches led by Zheng Zhi will go to Germany to experience the training and competition atmosphere of advanced football. It is worth mentioning that Zheng Zhi, Chen Tao, and Shao Jiayi also went to visit the coach of the 85 national youth team, Crouchen, and many old fans should be familiar with this name. Because, Crowchen once led the 85 national youth team to participate in the 05 World Youth Championships.
At that time, the 85 national youth team was divided into a group with two European powerhouses, Ukraine and Turkey, in this case, Crawford relied on excellent on-the-spot command and the ability to arrange troops, leading the 85 national youth team to win all three games in the group stage and qualify for the round of 16. Therefore, many fans are obsessed with Crouchen. Especially after the 85 national youth team, no national youth team can enter the World Youth Championships.
Zheng Zhi, Chen Tao, Shao Jiayi, and Mao Biao went to visit Crowchen, on the one hand, to thank him for his contribution to Chinese football. On the other hand, I hope to ask Crawford for coaching experience. The Chinese coaching staff, led by Zheng Zhi, also watched a Bundesliga match. Zheng Zhi had hoped to play in the Bundesliga at his peak, but he was eventually snatched away by Premier League side Charlton.
Zheng Zhi performed eye-catching in Charlton Athletic and became the core of the team. Whenever Charlton is in a stalemate in the game, Zheng Zhi can always stand up as soon as possible and put on a good show to turn the tide. After Zheng Zhi retired now, he put all his energy into the national football team. I hope that Zheng Zhizhi will perform well in the position of assistant coach of the national football team, lead the Chinese team to the 2026 World Cup as soon as possible, and live up to the love of the fans.
