The development of football in the Asian region has been polarized, Japan, South Korea and other "rising stars" have gradually gone to the world and become a real powerhouse, while the national football team, Singapore and other teams are still hovering in the third and fourth lines, becoming a point boy to benefit a number of teams, which is helpless. Among them, the national football team can still use itself as a "strong team" in the last century, but now it is just a "hard-mouthed king", and it has been overtaken by Japan and South Korea!
The arrival of the World Preliminary Tournament means that Asian football is once again plunged into a double world of joy and sorrow, among them, South Korea has won two consecutive victories to reach the top, and the same is true for the Japanese team. It is worth mentioning that the Japanese team, which is now ranked first in the Asian region, has a brilliant record this year, but it is not a "two consecutive wins in the World Preliminaries" can be concealed!
According to statistics, the Japanese team has completed 10 games this year, and the Kirin Challenge Cup in March can be said to be their worst moment, losing 1-1 against Uruguay and 1-2 against Colombia. Since the friendly match against El Salvador in June, the Japanese team has won three 4-1 victories, winning the traditional powerhouse Germany, South American powerhouse Peru and World Cup regular Canada.
By the end of the second round of the World Preliminary Tournament and 5-0 Syria, the Japanese team had won 8 consecutive victories, and it could be called the "best team in shape" in Asia!When we are still calculating the qualifying situation for Chinese teams, such as the national football team and the Hong Kong team, no one will doubt that the Japanese team will advance to the World Cup again, which is really envious of Chinese fans.
On the other hand, the national football team is unstable in the face of fish belly teams such as Malaysia and New Zealand, and even upset, not to mention the competition with higher-ranked teams such as Uzbekistan and South Korea!In the two rounds of the World Preliminary Tournament, the national football team narrowly defeated Thailand 2-1 and South Korea 0-3. Judging from the points situation, if the national football team wants to qualify smoothly, it is safe to win at least 4 wins in the world preliminaries.
That is to say, the national football team needs to kill Thailand again in the future, and then double kill Singapore, so that it will have 12 points, even if Thailand also kills Singapore, no matter how lucky it is to upset South Korea in the game, get one or two points, the highest is only 11 points, and the second place in the group needs to be ceded to the national football team!Compared with the national football team's victory over Thailand + Singapore again, the probability of the Thai team wanting to upset the South Korean team is lower, so if the national football team scores 10 points, it may also qualify, but if you want to be safe, you still need to hit 4 wins!
And now all teams are also actively preparing for the next World Preliminaries, among which the Thai team has opened the curtain of a strong change of coach and has been completed, while Singapore has recently "played hot" with South Korean coach Park Hengxu, which the national football team has to guard. The strength is weak, and even the opponent has to take care of the "trivial matter" of changing the coach, and the situation of the national football team is undoubtedly uncomfortable!
