Friends who like football can follow this game through the Internet, because this game, CCTV is still not broadcast live!
The head coach of the U19 national football team this time is Djordjevic. They started training on September 2nd! This is also the fifth training camp of the U19 men's football team this year. Many people may not understand, why are training camps so frequent? The reason is very simple, the new leadership team of the Football Association pays close attention to youth training, hoping that Chinese football can usher in a transformation. Moreover, next year's U20 Asian Cup will be held in China. As the hosts, we must be hoping to get good results! In order to boost the momentum of Chinese football.
Since Djordjevic took office, he has achieved good results. In the first half of the Weinan Four Nations Invitational Tournament, the Chinese U19 men's football team defeated the Korea men's football team and won the championship. It is indeed a surprise to beat the national youth of Korea! In early August, China's U19 men's football team also played two warm-up matches with Iran's men's football team. As a result, the Chinese U19 men's football team won one win and one loss. And this defeat is also the first defeat of the U19 men's football team since its formation.
The warm-up continues, and the Iraq U19 men's football team invited over this time is also very strong. At last year's U20 Asian Cup, the Iraq U20 men's football team finished as runners-up. The opponent is strong, and it is the best training opportunity for the Chinese U19 men's football team. This game will also further test the combat effectiveness of the Chinese U19 men's football team! If the Chinese team loses this game, it will be the second defeat of the U19 men's football team since its formation, and it will be killed by the West Asian team!
In this Chinese U19 men's football team, there are two players worth paying attention to! Wang Yudong of the Zhejiang team, born in 2006, played in the Chinese Super League last season. As a striker player, Wang Yudong has entered the national echelon at all levels many times. In 2019, Wang Yudong helped the Chinese U13 team win the runner-up of the Czech U13 "Drunice Cup" International Youth Football Tournament and the Croatia "Dream Cup" championship, and was elected as the best player of the Croatia "Dream Cup". In the 20th U17 Asian Cup Qualifiers, Wang Yudong scored 8 goals and won the Golden Boot. In addition, Wang Yudong also skipped into the National Olympic team under the guidance of Cheng Yaodong. In this U19 men's football team, Wang Yudong is also the absolute main force.
The other player is Liu Chengyu, who scored twice in the previous match with the Korea men's football team at the Weinan Four Nations Invitational Tournament to help the Chinese U19 men's football team defeat the opponent. In the scorer list of the domestic U21 league, the current Liu Chengyu leads with 14 goals.
In the match against the Iraq U19 men's football team, Wang Yudong and Liu Chengyu will become the sharp knives of the Chinese men's football team. How can the Chinese men's football team perform? Let's wait and see!
