July 27, China's national football team came to exciting news, the World Preliminary League grouping draw results have been finalized. The national football team will be with South Korea, Thailand, Singapore and Guam winners in the same area, Singapore has been confirmed to advance, this grouping some people call "the group of death", in fact, but not.
In-depth analysis, the national football team is not in a desperate situation, on the contrary, it is the gospel of Chinese soccer. This grouping gives the Chinese soccer team a chance to challenge strong opponents such as South Korea and Thailand, and realize a historic revenge.
Calling the Chinese soccer team the top draw has its own merits. The battle with South Korea, although the historical record is not very favorable to China, but it also heralds a new turnaround. As we all know, the national football team has played with South Korea, fewer wins and more losses, with a record of 2 wins, 10 draws and 17 losses, a win rate of only 6.7%, winning a total of 29 games. However, this disadvantage could be an opportunity for the national soccer team to make a comeback.
Faced with an unfamiliar and strong opponent, the opponent may be able to fully respond to the battle, such as Japan will certainly go all out. However, the Korean team is different, the national soccer team in South Korea is far inferior to the performance of Japan. The Korean team may take the national soccer team lightly. Even after the results of the draw were announced, many South Korean netizens are still cynical about the national football team, and even said that the national football team "dirty kicking", convinced that they will win. This kind of contempt just gave the national football team the opportunity to fight back.
The more contemptuous the opponents are, the more likely the national soccer team will fight back. The national soccer team is expected to beat the South Korean team in their slack mindset. After all, there are only four opponents in the group stage. In fact, Korea and China have few chances to play each other. If South Korea takes the national soccer team lightly in the first match, the final showdown between the two teams will determine the winner of the group stage. As long as the Chinese soccer team can score from the South Korean team in the first match, it is possible to lock the advancement in the final match, and it does not matter whether they win or lose.
Also, the South Korean team may have been biased in their previous judgment of the Chinese national football team because they always had the upper hand. However, today's national football team is not what it used to be, and under Coach Jankovic's leadership, the national football team will place more emphasis on naturalized players. Jankovic's hiring strategy means that naturalized players will form a whole new national team with the likes of Li Tie. Under Jankovic's guidance, the performance of the national soccer team is expected to be improved.
Based on the above two points, it is not difficult for the national soccer team to beat South Korea easily, and it is not impossible to beat Thailand. With a win over South Korea, the national soccer team could advance in the first five matches of the group stage. Even the last match against South Korea could evolve into a friendly rather than a battle to the death.
