The Chinese men's football team is expected to assemble at the end of May to prepare for the two matches of the World Preliminary Championship in June, which is also a key event for the Chinese men's football team to advance to the round of 18. In the first game, the Chinese men's football team will face Thailand at the Shenyang Olympic Sports Center, and if they can win, they will directly advance to the round of 18, and the last game against the South Korean team has become a training battle.
During this time, Ivankovic led the coaching staff team and was inspecting the international players in the Chinese Super League to fully prepare for the two world preliminaries. At the same time, the Chinese coaching staff was not idle at all, and the Football Association made important decisions. According to a report by Beijing Sports, three members of the Chinese coaching staff, Zheng Zhi, Shao Jiayi and Chen Tao, are currently temporarily leaving the national football team to lead a 12-member delegation of the Chinese Football Association to visit Club RB Leipzig for a seven-day visit.
This visit is one of the contents of the coach exchange between the Chinese Football Association and the German Football Association, and it will help the Chinese coaches and football association personnel to deepen their understanding through the visit. More important in the operation of the club is to observe the training of the club's youth team and exchange views on talent promotion, training methods and innovative competition concepts. For Chinese football, this is also an important promotion of cooperation with the German Football Association, which can learn Germany's advanced football technology and concepts, which will contribute to the development of Chinese football in the future.
The delegation also watched last week's 3-0 home win over Wolfsburg by RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga, a trip that was also very rewarding for the Chinese coaching staff, and helped to bring advanced football concepts to be integrated into Ivankovic's coaching process.
For Ivan, Zheng Zhi and others went out to study in this way, which also played a role in killing two birds with one stone. On the one hand, the next selection is not mixed with the Chinese coaching staff, and the latest squad of the national football team announced in May is also selected by Ivan and the assistant coaching team to participate in the main opinions, without outside interference, and some related players can also be fired.
Secondly, when Ivan took over the national football team, the only Chinese coach who went to the scene to watch the game was Zheng Zhi, so he also belonged to the core team in the Chinese assistant coaching team. In addition to helping Ivan with daily training in the national football team, Zheng Zhi also relieved pressure for players in the tournament and established a bridge of communication between players and the coaching staff. For example, in the national football team's home game against Singapore at that time, Zheng Zhi played a huge role on the sidelines, relieving pressure for Gao Tianyi and helping him play well. Being able to participate in the Bundesliga now also improves the overall strength of the coaching team, and then conveys advanced football knowledge to the players. Song Kai is also very correct in this approach.
The home game on June 6 is particularly important, and the Football Association and Ivan have long been talking about whether to retain the coaching staff after the two games in Singapore, and it is now the last minute.
