The drama in the Chinese football world is always one after another, and you can never guess what the next scene will look like. At the tense moment less than a month before the next World Preliminary Tournament, Chinese football staged another drama of changing coaches. On the 24th, the Chinese Football Association announced a familiar name - Ivankovic, as the new coach of the national football team.
The veteran coach is approaching his 70th birthday, but his task is not an easy one. Can Ivankovic, an "old acquaintance" of Chinese football, lead the national football team out of the trough and achieve some glory?
Ivankovic's name is not unfamiliar to Chinese football circles. He has led Shandong Taishan to win the Chinese Super League championship and has also left a lot of records in Asian club competitions. At international level, he has also coached Iran and Oman, which is a testament to his experience.
In the last World Preliminary Tournament, Ivankovic's Oman team almost successfully entered the play-offs, which shows his command ability and the adjustment of the team. For the upcoming World Championships, Ivankovic is undoubtedly an experienced leader.
But even seasoned veterans are not immune to the challenge. The national football team is now in a difficult moment and needs to regain morale in a short period of time for the upcoming match. After all, the situation on the football field is changing rapidly, and no team can afford to take it lightly.
On the opponent side, both Singapore and Thailand have recently made changes of manager, which may bring some uncertainties. And the issue of the national football team's own replacement is also a difficult problem at hand. The performance of veteran players is important, but the use of naturalized players may bring some new changes to the team.
At this critical moment, the national football team needs not only an excellent coach, but also the unity and cooperation of the whole team and the spirit of tenacious struggle. Only in this way can we stand out in the fierce competition and win more glory for the future of Chinese football.
Therefore, whether Ivankovic can lead the national football team is not only a matter of one person, but also the strength of a team. Let's wait and see, looking forward to a new dawn for Chinese football under his leadership!
