Saudi Arabia coach Mancini never imagined that his team would be forced to draw by Indonesia, a sixth-pot team, in the first round of the round of 15 at home. "People have misses, horses have stumbled", in the second round of the away game against the Chinese team, Mancini must get face back, and 3 points is the result they want. Of course, "face" is a trivial matter, if Saudi Arabia is scored by the Chinese team again, Mancini, who holds the highest salary of the world football coach, will be too unreliable, and what awaits him will inevitably be class.
At 20 o'clock on the evening of September 10, Beijing time, the second round of the World Cup qualifiers Asian round of 18, the Chinese men's national football team will sit at home to face Saudi Arabia, although this is only the second round of the group stage, but for Ivankovic and Mancini, it is a battle of life and death! No surprises, whoever loses will be out of class. Before the end of class, the football associations of China and Saudi Arabia will "support" their own head coaches, and once they lose, whether it is the Chinese Football Association or the Saudi Football Association, they will "turn their faces".
In August 2023, Mancini officially took over the Saudi team, with an annual salary of up to 25 million euros after tax, becoming the highest-paid football coach in history. But high salary does not equal "high energy", at the beginning of the Asian Cup, the Saudi team was eliminated in the 1/8 final with Korea in a penalty shootout, when Mancini left the field early, was criticized by the Saudi media and fans. Considering the huge liquidated damages, Mancini continued to coach. In the first round of the round of 18, Saudi Arabia was forced to draw 1-1 at home by Indonesia, and Mancini made matters worse!
The world's highest salary, how can it be so easy to earn. At the very least, Mancini's honeymoon period with Saudi football is over. According to the analysis of "Daily News", Mancini's life is not easy, and if Mancini can't lead the team to win against China in the round of 18, he will usher in a disaster. Some fans said, "This is a life-and-death battle between the two coaches." "Mancini is in dire need of a soft persimmon." "The probability of the Saudi team losing the national football team is smaller than the 0-7 defeat to Japan." "The national football team is expected to save Mancini."
The national football team is trying to come out of the shadow of 0-7. Liu Yang left the national football team due to injury, and the main position of left back is most likely Li Lei. Judging from the information transmitted within the current team, in the face of the Saudi team, Ivan still refuses to take risks, and everything is based on stability. The midfield position will be fine-tuned, and the two players in the front line will be one in front and one behind. From the perspective of fans, Jiang Shenglong's play in the back against Japan is outrageous. The Japanese players played small and fast, and the Saudi players also had excellent foot skills.
Jiang Shenglong played well against the Korea team, so Ivan concocted according to the law, but the Japanese team and Korea have different styles. Against Saudi Arabia, don't you need Huang Zhengyu and Wang Haijian? Fierce interceptions, tackles, and then pressing pressing, the midfield is out of control, and the game cannot be played. In the training session on the 8th, Ivan sent Wu Lei, Alan and Fernando at the same time, and the battle between China and Saudi Arabia will remove one person from the front three, and there is a high probability that the two players in the front will not stand in parallel, but one in front and one behind, and strengthen the midfield defense.
