Ah, the national football team actually turned the tide against all odds and fought back! No generals to supervise the battle, no special plane to transport, no rich bonus incentives, no grand departure ceremony, only living in a three-star hotel, such a simple situation, but under the leadership of Jankovic, the score of 2-1 away from home to beat Thailand, overfulfilled the set goal.
The national football team has a legend of "winning against all odds". The more adversity, the more can inspire fighting spirit, in the outside world is generally not optimistic about the time, often will burst out of the amazing energy. This time in Thailand battle, will once again verify this point.
However, before the national football team went to Thailand, public opinion was in mourning. Most people predicted that the national football team could at most draw with their opponents, and few people dared to assert that the national football team could win. Against this backdrop, Guangzhou Evergrande, the eight-time champions of the Chinese Super League, were once again targeted. Even the head coach of Qingdao West Coast, Jangovic (see below), who managed to overtake the Chinese League One team, demanded that Evergrande take at least half of the blame for the current state of the national soccer team.
Public opinion exploded when Jangovic's comments were made. There were those in favor and those against. Those in favor stood on the moral high ground and spoke righteously. Though the counter-arguers thought it was unreasonable, there was nothing they could do about it.
However, the facts proved that Jangovic's conclusion was too hasty. Not only did his comments fail to make a difference, but he was reduced to a laughing stock as the national soccer team beat Thailand away from home.
After the game, the opening of the national soccer team quickly topped the hot searches, and another hot topic is Jangovic's accusation against Evergrande.
Fans were buzzing in the comments section, arguing that Evergrande was responsible for the national soccer team's superior performance over Thailand (see above). I can't help but wonder who this is referring to.
Some fans responded in the comment section, "Evergrande should at least take half of the responsibility for the national soccer team's current performance." Some netizens also said that Evergrande can't say anything if it doesn't recognize the responsibility for this game.
These responses are not without merit. After all, Jangovic asked Evergrande to take responsibility. Of course, Evergrande is responsible when the national soccer team wins, but also when it loses. There is nothing wrong with this understanding!
These responses are actually the fans' frustration with Jan Govich's accusations, but if you dig deeper, you'll find that Evergrande does take half the blame for the national soccer team's win.
The first goal for the national soccer team came from Wei Shihao's assist, and the second goal was scored by Wang Shangyuan, both of whom previously played for Guangzhou Evergrande. In a way, Evergrande took half the blame for the victory.
Evergrande is at least half responsible for the Chinese national team so far," said Jangovic.
Due to Guangzhou Evergrande's criticism of the way foreigners are used, domestic homegrown players are not featured prominently.
It is true that the domestic local players are not showing their characteristics at the moment, and there is truth in this view. However, in searching for the cause of the disease, he prescribed the wrong medicine according to his own preference. No wonder this view has caused many fans to be dissatisfied and refute.
Fans with a little bit of general soccer knowledge know that a team is only responsible for its own signings, playing style, and investments. As for whether other teams follow suit, that is their own independent behavior. Evergrande simply cannot control, stop or be responsible for that.
Today, Jangovic is once again in the spotlight! As a former professional player and current professional coach who is supposed to know a lot about soccer, it is baffling that he made such a brilliant and extremely amateurish statement. It is doubtful if you are really speaking out for Chinese soccer or if you have another motive.
