On March 21, Beijing time, the annual China Cup will kick off. Chinese men's football team will face the first opponent of the Chinese Cup under the leadership of interim coach Cannavaro .
Thailand has become a very difficult opponent of the national football team in recent years. Speaking of the Thai team, the tragedy of the 1:5 loss to Thailand in 2013 is still vivid in my mind, which makes people feel heartbroken. In the Asian Cup just passed, the Chinese national football team had just played against Thailand in the 1/8 final. Although the final result was that the Chinese national football team won 2:1, the outstanding combat effectiveness of the Thai team also shocked the Chinese national football team. When we met again this time, Coach Ka naturally did not dare to take it lightly.
The first match of the Chinese Cup. To be safe, Coach Kah will inevitably make some old internationals in key positions become the core backbone of the team while on the premise of using new players to play a mainstay. The starting lineup of Coach Kahl's prediction is as follows:
goalkeeper position, between Yan Junling , Zeng Cheng , Wang Dalei , given that mentor Lippi has a precedent, Coach Kahl will naturally use Yan Junling as the starting goalkeeper. Besides, in the first few games of the new season, Yan Junling's performance was indeed the most outstanding among these three goalkeepers, so there was almost no suspense about Yan Junling's starting lineup.
back line, for safety reasons, Coach Kah should adopt the configuration of two old ones and two new ones. The veterans are two of Coach Carters' favorite players, Feng Xiaoting, and , Zhang Linpeng, , while the new players should be the Luneng young player Liu Yang who just rushed to the front line and Evergrande's new middle defender Liu Yiming. Among them, Feng Xiaoting and Liu Yiming partnered with the double central defenders, while Liu Yang and Zhang Linpeng were separated from each other on the left and right. It is worth mentioning that although Feng Xiaoting made a major mistake in the Asian Cup and was criticized by the media and fans, he was able to return to the national team this time, which shows that the Chinese national team really cannot find a better player than him in this position. That's why he is hard to give up. This is also a kind of helplessness in Chinese football. Perhaps Feng Xiaoting can be brave after knowing shame and save himself perfectly in this game.
midfielder, given that Hao Junmin and Wu Xi performed the best in the Asian Cup, in order to be stable, in the first match between Thailand, these two veterans will surely take the lead in the midfield of the national football team. Hao Junmin, who is good at offense, is responsible for organization and support, while Wu Xi, who is good at defense, is responsible for interception and sweep in the midfield. Of course, considering training new players, another position in the midfield should be reserved for Evergrande's new midfielder He Chao . He Chao was once praised by Lippi as the successor of Zheng Zhi . Such an opportunity for training is naturally the first to be favored by Coach Kah.
forward line, the only international players recruited this time are Wei Shihao , Dong Xuesheng , Lu Wenjun , Tan Long . In the case of 4 choosing 3, there is no doubt that the three players of the Chinese Super League, Wei Shihao, Dong Xuesheng and Lu Wenjun are naturally the first choice for Coach Ka's starting lineup. Dong Xuesheng served as the center, while Wei Shihao and Lu Wenjun were responsible for flying both wings on the left and right to carry out organizational support. If they had the opportunity, they could become the offensive endors directly.
Therefore, the starting lineup of the national football team against Thailand is expected to be: Yan Junling, Liu Yang, Feng Xiaoting, Liu Yiming, Zhang Linpeng, Hao Junmin, He Chao, Wu Xi, Wei Shihao, Dong Xuesheng, Lu Wenjun
