Kadish's stunner made the national football team with one more player reversible. At the same time, the national football team has created a series of embarrassing records, and in the world preliminaries, the national football team has been unable to defeat Saudi Arabia for 27 years.
In the first round of the round of 18, the national football team lost 0-7 to Japan, setting a record for the largest defeat in the main match in team history and a single goal conceded in the main match in team history. In the face of Saudi Arabia, whether the national football team can complete redemption has become a major attraction.
In the last World Preliminaries, the national football team played two games against Saudi Arabia, one draw and one loss, and the last time they defeated Saudi Arabia was on January 10, 2015, when Yu Hai scored the only goal of the game, and Wang Dalei saved the opponent's penalty. However, this is also the only time that the national football team has defeated Saudi Arabia since November 5, 1997, and the two teams have met in the past 8 times, and the national football team has only achieved 1 win, 3 draws and 4 losses.
Li Lei promised before the game that he would see a new national football team, and the national football team did it. After only 14 minutes of play, Tambati accidentally scored an own goal, and the national football team took the lead. Three minutes later, Kano fell to the ground and stepped on Jiang Shenglong and was sent off with a red card.
In the 39th minute, Al-Dosari took a corner kick and Kadish headed it home. In the 54th minute, Wang Shangyuan scored a goal, but the offside position was blown first.
In the 90th minute of the game, the national football team leaked again when defending a corner kick, and Kadish headed the goal to complete the double shot!
In the battle of redemption, the national football team, which had a lead in the score and played one more player, was reversed. At the same time, the national football team also set a series of embarrassing records. First of all, the national football team suffered three consecutive defeats for the first time since February 15, 2019, when it lost to Syria, Japan and Korea in a row, but only conceded six goals and scored two goals in three games.
Secondly, the national football team has been unable to win 4 consecutive games, with only 1 draw and 3 losses. Third, since the 0-3 defeat to Korea on November 21, 2023, the national football team has won only one of its 11 games.
Fourth, the national football team has conceded goals in 19 consecutive World Preliminary Tournaments, and the last time the opponent kept a clean sheet in the World Preliminary Tournament was a 5-0 victory over the Maldives on June 11, 2021.
Fifth, the national football team has conceded seven consecutive goals in all competitions, and the last clean sheet was against Lebanon in the Asian Cup. Sixth, after Ivankovic coached, the national football team conceded goals in 6 games, conceding a total of 14 goals.
Seventh, in the world preliminaries, the national football team continued the curse of not being able to defeat Saudi Arabia since November 6, 1997, and only won 2 draws and 2 losses in 4 games. After winning the first four matches against Saudi Arabia in the world preliminaries, the national football team has never won the next four meetings. Eighth, the national football team continued its winless record against Saudi Arabia since October 21, 2021, with only 1 draw and 2 losses in 3 games.
Ninth, the national football team set a record for the largest defeat against Saudi Arabia in the main match, and has never lost by more than 1 goal before. Losing to Japan and Saudi Arabia in a row, and being reversed by Saudi Arabia in a good situation, who should take responsibility for the two consecutive defeats in the round of 18 of the national football team?
