The battle between China and Iraq ended with the Chinese national team losing to the opponent 0-1. After winning this game, Iran's points have reached 17 points. It's only a matter of time for them to enter the World Cup in Russia. And for us, although there is still a theoretical possibility of competing for third place in the group, we have basically bid farewell to the Russian World Cup.
After the game, Jiang Zhipeng, who caused the Chinese team to lose the ball, posted on Weibo to apologize to everyone. Unlike in the past, we cannot see the criticism of fans in the comments section, but more of the recognition and encouragement of Jiang Zhipeng’s struggle on the court.
After the game, the women's football girl who is called the women's football team, Li Jiayue also posted on Weibo to express his respect to the national football team: This time the national football team, at least I won't scold you. To admit the gap, the gap cannot be narrowed in just one or two days, but at least I saw the hard work of these men! Chinese football is not the only two games. It can become a strong team in one or two years. It takes ten or twenty years or even longer to walk the right path. I believe that Lippi is leading Chinese men's football team to the right path, and time will also bring us a Chinese men's football team that makes us shine! Although you lost, you are already great. Losing is not anyone’s fault. Everyone will make mistakes. Let’s take this responsibility together and get up wherever you fall!
Under the leadership of Lippi, the Chinese men's football team scored 4 points in three games. More importantly, it allowed us to see a great change in the team. There are three games to play in the next. Whether Lippi chooses to train new players or continue to attack for the theoretical possibility depends on the discussion with the Football Association later. But looking forward to the future, Lippi will stay there. We will definitely be confident that we will hit the top two in the group in the next World Cup qualifiers.
