On Friday, Ivankovic watched the match between Changchun Yatai and Beijing Guoan, and after the 12th round, Ivankovic is likely to announce the list of the national football training camp in June, which means that his "gun hunting" plan will come to an end.
In the first training camp, Ivankovic called in 4 strikers, but all 4 have their own problems, the best Wu Lei will be automatically suspended for the game against Thailand, Fernando is currently absent due to injury, and Aikesen has almost no chance to play, only Zhang Yuning has no problem.
Against Thailand at home, the national football team must win to advance to the round of 18, but in the absence of Wu Lei and Li Yuanyi, Ivankovic must reorganize the attacking line, which made him start an intensive "gun-hunting" plan.
After watching the match between Guoan and Rongcheng in the 10th round, Ivankovic watched the battle between Jinmen Tiger and Shenhua in the 11th round, and went to Changchun in the 12th round to watch the battle between Yatai and Guoan, with the goal of inspecting the state of players such as Tan Long, Fang Hao, Lin Liangming, and Zhang Yuning.
After being selected for the March training camp, Tan Long had a good performance in the Chinese Super League, scoring four goals and providing one assist in 11 games. On the list of local scorers, Tan Long, Zhang Yuning, and Wei Shihao are tied for second place, second only to Wu Lei, who scored 12 goals.
Fang Hao won the favor of Ivankovic with his positive attitude and running without sparing, which is also the key to Xie Wenneng, Wang Zhenao and other young players with excellent impact and running are expected to enter the national football team.
However, in this national football striker duel, the most eye-catching is Zhang Xizhe, who took a corner kick to help Fabio break the goal, and once equalized for Guoan.
Tan Long had 2 shots on target in this campaign, while Zhang Yuning had 3 shots on goal and 0 shots on target. In the post-match rating, Zhang Xizhe scored 7.3 points, second only to Fabio (8.4 points) in the team, Zhang Yuning scored 7 points, and Tan Long scored 7.1 points.
There is no doubt about Zhang's condition and skills, but what worries Ivankovic is his age and fitness. Media people are buying and selling who is in line with the analysis, "Zhang Xizhe's recent form is too good, and his current passing is a bit of a pointer. Whether it is Xie Pengfei or Zhang Xizhe, in fact, it is difficult to maintain a high-level performance for 90 minutes in a high-intensity game. That's not as good as the World Preliminary Tournament in June, Ivan asked Xie Pengfei to play for 60 to 70 minutes, and then changed to Zhang Xizhe? ”
It is worth emphasizing that in the Chengdu Rongcheng vs. Meizhou Hakka game, Wei Shihao scored twice and became the number one contributor to Rongcheng's victory, and Ackerson, who started for the first time this season, also provided an assist.
If there is no accident, Alan will replace Wu Lei in the first game against Thailand, Huang Zhengyu is also expected to be selected for the national football team for the first time, and Xu Haoyang, Zhang Xizhe, Li Tixiang and other players are not small.
