After the Chinese men's football team entered the round of 18 in a thrilling way, the draw for the round of 18 will be ushered in on June 27, and this time we are drawing as a five-tier team, so it can be said that the situation is not optimistic. Before the game, all kinds of media people and fans were also analyzing what kind of group the Chinese team drew to be signed. In fact, if you want me to say, with the current strength of the Chinese team to participate in the round of 18, among all the teams, we may be the weakest two or three teams, for the weakest team, it is not very important to draw a group at all, so there is no need to count, when the time comes, the round of 18 is actually our World Cup.
Think about the performance of the top 40 matches played in the last stage, in fact, we don't need to have any illusions about the next World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico, don't lose too ugly, increase the chance to meet with this kind of slightly stronger opponents in Asia, and find our own shortcomings, this is our biggest goal in participating in the round of 18, as for the impact of the World Cup, just think about this thing. In addition to the discussion in the group, there are also some fans who are discussing whether the Chinese team is going to change the coach after the promotion.
In fact, everyone knows very well that this time to be able to rush into the round of 18, the relationship with the head coach Ivankovic is not very big, the Singapore team is very powerful, and the Chinese team has been lifted into the top 18, this is the most important reason, so many fans feel that we should consider replacing the head coach and strive to retain the hope of the top 18.
On the road to the 2018 World Cup in Russia. It was because Gao Hongbo was not replaced immediately at that time, and Lippi came too late, so that the Chinese men's football team fell short at the last moment, and was one point away from getting a play-off place, if the top 12 matches at that time could let Lippi bring from the beginning, with the level of the Chinese team at that time, including the ability shown by Lippi, to get a play-off qualification, it is definitely not a fantasy for the Chinese team, so many fans feel that we can't make the same mistakes, and Ivankovic should be let out of class, Hurry up and change to a more reliable head coach and play the round of 18 to see if a miracle can happen. So what is the attitude of the Football Association? Judging from the current situation, the Football Association does not plan to change the coach.
At present, Ivankovic has arrived in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to participate in the draw ceremony for the round of 18 of the Asian Games held there, which shows that he is still relatively stable in this position as the head coach of the Chinese team, and the decision made by the Football Association is also showing the outside world that the Chinese men's football team will not consider changing the coach at least in the first two games of the round of 18, that is to say, in the international competition of this week in September this year, it is estimated that after playing these two games, we will see if Ivankovic will be moved.
But in fact, the Football Association is also muttering in its heart, because Ivankovic has previously said that he hopes that more naturalized players can join in, but the Football Association said that it will not refuse, nor will it take the initiative to promote this matter, everything will go naturally. This also shows the current attitude of the Football Association towards Ivankovic, that is, not to fire you for the time being, but it does not mean that they completely trust you, and during the round of 18, Ivankovic is in danger of being fired at any time.
