The Asian Cup is about to ignite, and the national soccer team will make its debut in the group stage on Saturday evening (13th), facing the opponent of Group A, Tajikistan. Although the performance of the national soccer team in recent years in the international arena is not satisfactory, but this time against the third and fourth grade teams, there is still a high chance of winning. Facing the "new army" Tajikistan, the national soccer team is expected to clear the clouds and win the home field.
Recently, the Chinese team's warm-up matches have not done well, with consecutive defeats against Hong Kong and Oman, but these matches were more for the purpose of trial matches and may not fully reflect the team's true strength. As the official matches draw near, the national football team is expected to be fully focused and go all out, especially against Tajikistan, the weakest team in the group, and should seize the opportunity to try to grab points. Manager Aleksandar Jankovic revealed that the team has been training with great intensity for the past ten days, and the players' form has been improving, so the results of the warm-up matches do not need to be taken too seriously.
Mainland media analysis pointed out that as long as the national football team plays normally, at least can enter the eight strong. As a matter of fact, the two scorers in the front line of the national soccer team, Wu Lei and Zhang Yuning, both have experience in playing in Europe and are experienced in big games. Coupled with their good record of winning all of their first group stage matches in the last four Asian Cups, the national soccer team has the ability to beat Tajikistan in this match and hit the ground running.
