The national team's Asian Games team was a 5:1 thrashing of India's U23s, demonstrating the rare dominance of Chinese soccer in the international arena in recent years. Although a victory can not hide the overall weakness of Chinese soccer, but as the famous soccer player Huang Jianxiang said, in the face of a victory, let's play a happy night.
After the match, Serbian head coach Djurdjevic was very excited about the performance of his disciples. He told the media at the post-match press conference that although our players are still young, they have actually shown the level of the national team and some of them have the quality to make it.
Although Djurdjevic's use of the word "quality" was inappropriate (the word "level" would have been more appropriate), it's a foreigner's way of expressing himself, so there's no need to be too critical. Unfortunately, Djurdjevic didn't name names, so we don't know exactly which international players he was referring to. Since Djurdjevic didn't name them, we might as well take a guess here. The writer believes that at least four international players from last night's five matches:in a win over India, are capable of making the national team.
The first is defender Zhu Chenjie. In this game, although Zhu Chenjie's performance was not spectacular, and he conceded a penalty kick, but without him in the back line, the national football team's defensive ability will surely drop a lot. As we all know, the position of a defender is not an easy one, and is far less glamorous than that of an attacking player up front. A goal and an assist are often talked about, but those who know the game know that it doesn't matter how beautiful the front attack is if the back players aren't doing the dirty work at the back and eliminating the danger at the back. Zhu Chenjie is this sports team is the real back of the defense, "the sea god pin". Although he can not score, but he can score, but he can rarely.
Second place goes to naturalized player Dai Weijun. Everyone who knows football knows that Dai Weijun is definitely the ceiling of the whole team in this Asian Games. His world wave beyond the scoreline is enough to explain everything. In addition, he has years of experience playing for England. If such a young international player doesn't make the national team, I'm afraid the fans won't agree.
The third place is Tao Qianglong. Tao Qianglong became famous when he was young. at the age of 16, he was named one of the world's top 60 rising stars and was hailed as the hopeful star of Chinese soccer. In this game, he not only showed a strong desire to win, but also became the deadliest player in the team. If he had not handled the ball calmly, he could have scored a hat-trick in this match. Tao Qianglong has all-round abilities and can play many positions such as striker, shadow striker, forward, left and right forward. The national soccer team needs explosive and versatile players like him up front.
Fourth place went to Haijian Wang. In this game, Wang Haijian didn't show much at the back of the midfield, but he was recognized for his ball control and ability to control the game. His position is similar to that of national soccer team captain Wu Xi, who is not only good at interceptions and tackles, but also has superb offensive creativity. When Wu Xi grows old, Jankovic could consider developing Wang Haijian as Wu Xi's successor.
