Cheers to Zheng Zhi, cheers to Shao Jiayi! China's national soccer team showed unprecedented fighting spirit, thrashing Myanmar on June 16th! The latest edition of the National Football Team lineup is officially unveiled! 24 elite players from 9 clubs stand out. Notably, captain Wu Xi was unable to participate in training due to injury, and Beijing Guoan's Zhang Yuning was also absent. Compared to the players selected, perhaps the biggest surprise of this edition of the national football team is the rise of the new generation.
The list released by the Football Association, the national football coaching team experienced subtle adjustments. Zheng Zhi, Shao Jiayi and Chen Tao continue to assist Yankovic, but Shao Jiayi stepped down as team leader and was replaced by Cui Enlei. Although Cui Enlei is not well known among fans, he is a veteran of the CFA.
Cui Enlei was briefly vice-captain of the national Olympic team during the period when Weidi was in charge of the Football Association, and then devoted himself to refereeing. This promotion to the new captain of the national soccer team seems to be a relief for Shao.
Zheng Zhi, Shao Jiayi and Chen Tao, three in the player era was a national football stalwart, and now transition coach, Zheng Zhi is the pride of Asian soccer.
The trio made their debut as assistant coaches for the national soccer team in March of this year. Subsequently, frequent appearances in the Chinese Super League were made to assist Jankovic in selecting talent and finalizing the roster.
The new national football team list is significantly younger than the previous one. This may be the strategic thinking of the new team of the national football team. Taking into account the upcoming November World Qualifier and next year's Asian Cup, the national football team needs to clarify the main framework in order to reduce personnel turnover and improve training efficiency.
Aided by Zheng Zhi, Shao Jiayi and Chen Tao, Jankovic believes he can take the pressure off the national team's workload and focus on formulating tactics and exploring a style of soccer that suits the country.
Gao Hongbo, vice president of the Football Association, serves as the main person in charge of the Chinese men's soccer team, and is a former coach of the national soccer team who knows the affairs of the national team inside out.
Zheng Zhi, Shao Jiayi, Chen Tao plus Gao Hongbo, the new phase of the national soccer team is strong. I expect this strength to bring a new atmosphere to the national soccer team and let the fans see a different side.
According to the arrangement of the Football Association, the national football team will have its first warm-up match on June 16th against the Asian underdog Myanmar. A win for the national soccer team doesn't seem to be a problem, does it?
Fan Zhiyi had predicted that the national soccer team would lose to Thailand, Vietnam and Myanmar in a row. The first two predictions have come true and the answer to whether the third will come true will be revealed in three days.
Although the opponent is not strong, the fans are extremely concerned about the national soccer team. The team led by Jankovic, Zheng Zhi, Shao Jiayi, Chen Tao and Gao Hongbo will do their best to win and not let the fans down and live up to Fan Zhiyi's prediction.
It was an ordinary warm-up game that carried an important prophecy.
