September 5, Asian Qualifiers 18-team round, China’s national team challenged Japan away.
After the game, Zhan Jun commented on this match: A humiliating score! The collapse in the second half is unacceptable, and neither can the process and content of the game be accepted… The large gap was expected, did the coaching staff have a detailed study and targeted deployment of Japan’s offensive tactics? Does head coach Ivan have an accurate judgment of the national team’s strength? Was the starting formation of 4-4-2 consistent with the strength comparison between both sides?
Should at least one of Alan or Fernandinho have been arranged to start? Falling behind was predictable, how should they play when trailing? It seems that the players were not prepared, and the head coach also failed to bring his intentions and adjustments onto the field through substitutions. Hope the coaching team summarizes the lessons well so that in the second round, when the national team returns home, they can rise from disgrace!
