The national soccer team defeated Thailand 2-1 in a reversal. After the match, Jankovic said that he was satisfied as the head coach. As expected before the match, it was a very tough game. We had some tactical problems in the first half. However, through midfield adjustments and substitutions, this problem was solved well in the second half and we scored to win. So we are happy with the team's performance. Lao Yang added, but we need to strengthen in many places, such as the continuity of the offense.
An away win has given fans across the country new hope for the national soccer team. After all, it was a half-assed match, and the national soccer team will return home in a better frame of mind to prepare for their second opponent, South Korea. Yan Junling is still the starting goalkeeper for this match. This time, he did not become a "shot dead". He showed his courage by taking many risks throughout the game, both high and low. It can be said that after this game, Yan Junling's performance for their own points, the national football team's starting position more stable!
In contrast, Wang Dalei was able to get a yellow card on the bench and will remain on the bench in the future! The live footage did not specify the reason for Wang Dalei's yellow card. Only the referee was seen running to the Chinese bench, taking out a yellow card, gesturing with his hand for a man on the bench to get the yellow card, and Wang Dalei standing up. Wang Dalei offended the referee verbally, but was it worth getting a card like that? Yan Junling wasn't injured, so he didn't get a chance to play.
The national team is short at the back and right wingback, and this game really showed it. Three center backs, might as well play four backs. Liu Binbin started in this game and played 15 minutes and it was meaningless! No active running, Zhang Lin is old, and the pressure on the right side of the defense of the national football team is too great. Thailand also specializes in attacking the right side of the national football team. Some fans say that Jankovic is not very good at using Liu Binbin. Although Liu Binbin is fast, he has no stamina. Liu Binbin is better to play as a substitute in Taishan in the second half.
Wu Lei scored the equalizer and was awarded the Man of the Match. In fact, Wu Lei was quite "embarrassing" as he wasted many attacks, including no passes to his teammates and no one-touch goals. The best should belong to Wei Shihao. If Wu Lei was unselfish and passed to Tan Long, the Chinese soccer team could have killed the suspense early! Teammates are used to passing to Wu Lei, who doesn't like to pass to other friends. In the last moment of the game, Wu Lei burst into the penalty area with the ball and surprisingly shook himself down!
Wu Xi, the "ball dodger", is also the captain of the national soccer team. Of course, he didn't dodge the ball this time. Dodging the ball is not an opportunity in every scenario. In this game, Wu Xi changed the "diving"! Wu Xi fell down in the opponent's penalty area, the referee decided to judge him as a cheater and showed him a yellow card. Wu Xi looks innocent. Of course, the penalty was controversial. Some media thought it should have been a penalty kick. However, at that time, Wu Xi's leg did not go a little lower, but jumped too high. The referee thought there was a suspicion of diving.
