The four forward players among the national soccer team's roster should be the strongest overall combination in the country. The combination of two centers and two wingers allows the national soccer team to keep two lineups rotating during the game. Even Ivankovic was able to start both Wu Lei and Fernando in a two-winged tactic.
Naturally, the competition in the forward line of the national soccer team is still very fierce, and it cannot be ruled out that Wu Lei, who has been occupying the absolute mainstay of the team, may be squeezed into the bench. In the end, if Wu Lei and Fernando compete for a starting position, then Fernando is more likely to start, as the national soccer team is looking for a good start.
Striker weakness has always been a serious problem for the Chinese soccer team. In the previous Asian Cup matches, Jankovic brought four goalkeepers to the tournament but did not leave any valuable spots for the frontline players, which led to a decline in the form of the main strikers, and the China men's soccer team was unable to score any goals in the Asian Cup. Therefore, Ivankovic also saw the shortcomings of the Chinese men's soccer team and brought four strikers, hoping to make a clean sweep.
