For the Chinese national soccer team, the October warm-up matches are of great significance. After two winless games in September, the national soccer team has been under tremendous pressure. Especially during the tenure of Jankovic's coaching staff, they have not been able to achieve outstanding performance, and the outside world has been skeptical of their ability. And now, Jankovic's position is in jeopardy due to lackluster results, especially the inability to beat Malaysia, who are ranked lower than China, and the loss to Syria. So, these two October matches are more of a personal redemption battle for Jankovic, hoping to win back the outside world's trust.
To this end, Jankovic has also abandoned the veteran positional philosophy and made full use of young and mid-career players. after 95, more than half of the players have also accelerated the pace of the old and new. It should be noted that winning is predicated on good defense, so defensive pairings are key, especially when core Zhang Linpeng is unavailable, and fans once again have high hopes for Zhu Chenjie, whose combination with Jiang Guangtai could be a surprise. However, to the surprise of the world, Zhu Chenjie is likely to miss the first match against Vietnam in October, according to informed media sources.
The main reason for not being able to play was injury. In fact, back at the Asian Games, Jurrjevic was injured in the group stage and then played three consecutive matches until he returned in the quarterfinals against South Korea. However, he was only rushed after half the game and his performance was not up to Jurjevic's expectations. It has now been a week. During this time, Jurgeon made the recruiting list for the national soccer team. In the eyes of the fans, since he could make the list and complete the enrollment, he was definitely allowed to participate.
However, just a day before the match with Vietnam, Zhu Chenjie could not play. The reason was that he first recuperated and apparently came to the national soccer team to recuperate from his injury, which really exceeded the expectations of the outside world. This situation is the first time since Jankovic's coaching. The latter gave the outside world the impression that he does not keep idle, especially this time young players are widely used.
Zhu Chenjie, 23 years old, 18 years old selected for the national soccer team, become the first 00 international players, also participated in the last 12 games, can be said to be the domestic soccer genius defender, now is a glass system, also let the outside world a little disappointed. Liu Dianzuo, who was also injured, did not participate in this training, but was replaced by Ma Zhen.
For the upcoming game, Jiang Guangtai will need to adapt and gel with his new partner, as the first two starting center backs are unavailable. The understanding between them will directly affect the defensive strength of our center back combination.
