Li Ke, a naturalized player of the national football team, left the team due to family reasons, which brought new challenges to the team's preparation for the Asian Cup. Li Ke plays a key role in the midfield position in the team, and his sudden departure has caused the national football team to face certain adjustments in the backline. National football coach Jankovic needs to rethink the combination of the midfield position at this critical moment.
Considering the urgency of the preparation and competition for the Asian Cup, the national football team quickly made a decision to recruit Xu Xin, a midfielder of the Shanghai Port team, to join the national team. As a resident player of the national team, Xu Xin has participated in training camps in March, June and September before, and is very familiar with Jankovic's tactical system. He is also in the 50-man squad of the national football team's alternate international players for this Asian Cup, and there is no tacit understanding problem with his teammates.
Xu Xin has strong adaptability in the midfield position, with both experience in a single midfielder and a double midfielder. This makes the overall strength of the national football team relatively less impacted. However, the disintegration of the tacit cooperation between Li Ke and Wu Xi in the midfield made Jankovic need to rethink the combination of the midfield position.
The national football team originally formed a certain tacit understanding under the combination of Li Ke and Wu Xi, and the coordination of the two in the midfield provided solid defensive support for the team. Lee's departure meant the duo had to be disbanded, and Jankovic needed to find a new partner in the remaining alternatives. This not only tests the quality of individual players, but also requires the formation of new tactical tacit understanding in a limited time.
The Asian Cup is approaching, and the national football team needs to readjust its tactical layout in the endgame to maintain the stability and cohesion of the team. The addition of Xu Xin provides a new option for the national football team, but how to find the best combination in a short period of time is an urgent task facing Jankovic. Fans are looking forward to the national football team rising to the challenge and achieving good results in the Asian Cup.
