On March 23rd, at 14:00 Beijing time, the national football team will face New Zealand in a friendly match. Jankovic will be playing his first official match in charge of the team. 9 years later, the national football team will play against New Zealand again. The goal is to keep the tie and win. We should know that we have been undefeated against New Zealand for 27 years. I hope the national soccer team can continue this record.
The national soccer team played two warm-up matches in China under Jankovic, but won both games with their domestic club teams. Wu Lei and Lin Liangming were in good form. They became the strikers of the national soccer team. Wu Lei scored three goals in two games and Lin Liangming scored in two consecutive games. But the real test for the national soccer team is the official matches, especially the two consecutive matches against New Zealand.
The national soccer team has now arrived in Auckland. After arriving at the hotel, the national soccer team quickly arranged an outdoor training session. The main goal is for the players to maintain their physical fitness, and the main training programs are jogging and drafting. After the players adjust their work and rest, the team will quickly begin outdoor player training in an effort to adjust their physical skills and athleticism to their best condition as soon as possible.
According to Sportsweek, the national soccer team will be warmly welcomed by local Chinese fans when they come to New Zealand, even though they are playing away from home. We're playing at Eden Park in Auckland, a stadium that can hold 34,000 fans, but at least thousands of them will be cheering for the national soccer team.
One good thing is that the national football team hasn't lost to New Zealand in 27 years. on June 28, 1996, the national football team beat New Zealand 2-0. We were undefeated in the next four matches, with a record of 1 win and 3 draws. In other words, the national football team is undefeated in the last five matches against New Zealand, with a record of 2 wins and 3 draws.
During this period, the national soccer team beat their opponents by 2-0 and 1-0, while in the three draws, the score was 1-1. so the national soccer team will still have to fight for undefeated this time.
Currently, Chinese soccer is at a low point. With the investigations of Li Tie and Chen Xuyuan, many Chinese Super League players have been involved in match-fixing. So we have a general environment and Chinese soccer needs a boost at the moment. I hope the national soccer players will show good spirit in this game and bring a wonderful game to the fans!
