's next Round of 12 match will be against Saudi Arabia at a neutral venue in Sharjah, UAE. According to the latest schedule, the match time has been adjusted from the original schedule of March 25 at 00:00 GMT to March 24 at 11:00 pm.
Li Xiaopeng emphasized that he will select the participants based on the psychological state of the players, and he bluntly said, "Now we do not talk about the results, whoever can fight will be able to go on." In terms of player configuration, he said, "We keep close contact with the naturalized players, and the current situation is not optimistic. Because we asked them to arrive in Dubai on the 10th to accept the national team's physical fitness test, but from the current point of view, it is difficult to realize their trip, we will try to arrange the players who have a better training condition at home to participate."
Currently, only Jiang Guangtai has arrived at the training base, while four naturalized players such as Ackerson and Luo Guofu, who are in Brazil, failed to join in, and the coaching staff is ready to cope with the absence of the four. According to the plan.
