Oops! Ivan inspected the international players on the spot, and Guoan returned that his brother will return to the national football team, and Fernando is going to be pitted
Through the World Preliminary Tournament in March, the outside world saw the role of naturalized player Fernando. Although Fernando has only recovered 65% of his peak strength, he has been able to bring great help to the national football team. At this stage, Fernando has just scored 3 goals in a single game, and his state is hot, and in June, Wu Lei was forced to suspend again, so Fernando is expected to replace Wu Lei as a sharp weapon on the front line. But at such a juncture, bad news suddenly came: Ivan inspected the international football team on the spot, and Guoan returned to the national football team.
Since Wu Lei and Li Yuanyi will be forced to suspend the game, the national football team needs to find their replacement, and in this case, Ivankovic also personally went to the Chinese Super League with the national football coaching staff to inspect the players. In the 7th round of the Chinese Super League, Beijing Guoan defeated Qingdao West Coast 4-1, and Ivan and the coaching staff watched the game on the spot. According to the authoritative domestic media "Beijing Youth Daily", national security players Zhang Xizhe and Fang Hao left a deep impression on Ivankovic and the coaching staff, so they are expected to return to the national football team and play in the World Preliminary Tournament in June.
In this game, Beijing Guoan pressed the west coast of Qingdao to the ground, Guoan shot as many as 34 shots, and the ball possession rate also reached 64%, and the international player Zhang Xizhe also played an important tandem role. In this game, Zhang Xizhe played 67 minutes, which improved Guoan's offensive firepower to a certain extent. According to reports, Ivan and the coaching staff have a very good impression of Zhang Xizhe, especially Ivan has publicly stated that he will not turn away people who are in good shape because of the age of the players. Judging from this situation, it is very likely that Zhang Xizhe will be selected for the national football team and compete in the world preliminaries.
Maybe Zhang Xizhe's performance in this game is really good, but this is only limited to the Chinese Super League platform, especially when Guoan is pressuring the opponent to play. In fact, Zhang Xizhe can't adapt to high-intensity international competitions, and at the same time, he doesn't like to see naturalized players, and he didn't like to pass the ball to them before. In the 2022 World Preliminaries, Zhang Xizhe has represented the national football team many times, but he always likes to pass back, so he won the label of "Brother Guoan Huichuan". Especially against Saudi Arabia, Zhang Xizhe did not pass the ball to the bison who ran out of the vacant position twice.
In the national football game against Saudi Arabia, once Luo Guofu shook off the Saudi defenders by actively running, and then went straight to the goal, and was not offside, but Zhang Xizhe saw Luo Guofu in a very favorable position, but did not pass the ball to him, and even ignored the bison who was waving for the ball and was empty around him. At that time, the Bison had already thrown off the defenders, as long as Zhang Xizhe passed the ball, he could easily receive the ball, and then Luo Guofu could face the goalkeeper and kick a single ball, and there was a high probability of scoring. But Zhang Xizhe would rather pass back than pass the ball to the bison, and his rejection of naturalized players is too obvious.
This time, Luo Guofu may not be selected for the national football team, but Fernando, who is in hot form, has become an indispensable starter for the national football team. If Zhang Xizhe returns to the national football team, maybe he will not wait to see Fernando, and then repeat the good comeback play, which may also make the little motorcycle miserable. On the other hand, the 35-year-old Zhang Xizhe is older, and his physical fitness and confrontation cannot keep up with the rhythm. Therefore, it is definitely bad news that Brother Guoan will return to the national football team! What do you think of Zhang Xizhe's return to the national football team?
