Jankovic: The East Asian Cup is an important step for players, and Japan and South Korea must be more aggressive
On July 16, Beijing time, in CCTV’s “Football Night” column, the head coach of the national football selection team Jankovic was interviewed.
On the selection of the national team
If you have been following this team, the players we recruit for each training session are fixed, and there are 2 players in each position to rotate, so we will not recruit particularly many people in each training session, but We already have an overall system, and every player is very familiar with this combat system. In fact, for me, the time to select candidates for the national team is usually one week before the competition. This time, we only have one week to prepare for the first game, which is still enough time.
3 overage players including Zhang Yuning were injured
First of all, it is a pity that the team really needs these 3 players, because these 3 players are the top players in the country in terms of strength and level, and we have cooperated with them in the previous training camp. Have the opportunity to train together. Their strength and ability are very much needed by this team at present. It is a pity that we cannot be with them in this period, but we will definitely have the opportunity to work together in the future.
recruit young players
In this short-term training camp, we must recruit some players who are very familiar with our overall routine and play style. This is conducive to the opening of the training camp. Basically, our young players have gradually gained a firm foothold in the club. So now they have more opportunities to perform, and I’m very happy that they can join our team and play a part. They also give our team a better push because the better they perform, it’s a motivator for our team.
It is normal for some players to emerge suddenly, such as Liang Shaowen. This time, it was Beijing Guoan’s performance in the league that suddenly appeared, but from the other side, from the perspective of the Chinese Football Association national team, his team is in this system, and all the coaches are constantly paying attention and tracking him. There is very good communication between the national team coaches and the players. From another level, we have been paying close attention to the younger players.
The challenge of this competition
Yes, it’s a huge challenge for this team, but games like this are also important because we’ve gone through a 3-year window without any international competition, and we have a lot of things to make up for it, but these things are irrelevant to the result.
At this stage, the Japanese and Korean players are better than us in terms of individual players. If we want to compete with them, we must be more capable, more aggressive, and more aggressive than them. If we can fight against us, we will have a chance. If we can’t match them in aggression, if we can’t win the ball, if we can’t win the two penalties, it’s still very difficult for us to fight them, so I will ask for a team. Strengthening the training of physical strength can compete with these high-level players in strength. Asking them to be more mindful of their own body protection, including the constant discussion about body fat, I’m not talking about making us a track team, but I know that if we want to play against the top teams at the Asian level, we have to Get a better workout physically.
Strategy for this competition
As long as it is a team, they have advantages and disadvantages, so based on the analysis of the opponent, I will formulate our combat strategy, but in terms of our preparation for the past 4 years, this is only a 5% challenge, so even if it is We are playing against the Japanese national team, and we will not prepare too much for this game, but we must have a big heart, and at the same time, we must be smarter in handling the ball. We have to give our best, so we will increasingly ask our players to feel and pay more attention to our own plans on the field, and less to think about the opponent’s situation.
For young players, too much consideration is given to the strength of the opponent, or we are playing a very strong opponent, and we are playing away from home, and the stadium is full of their fans. For young players, if they focus on the opponent, this is Distracted, this is not conducive to the performance of the team.
The Hong Kong team, we have analyzed all their games in the past few months, because we are playing against them in the last game, in fact, there are still 2 games to observe their play style, Korea, Japan, Hong Kong, 3 opponents , each game has a different combat strategy.
Development of East Asian Cup players
This wave of players grew up with the national team. When we met for the first time four years ago, they were just 19-year-old children. I am already familiar with these players. Now this stage is for these young people. The footsteps are an important step in their careers. This is the biggest stage in their careers, and they will decide the path of future growth. Don’t be afraid of any opponent in football, we have to play with our hard work and attitude. So in terms of statistics, I would like to see the number of confrontations and high-intensity runs in this cup game, and I would also like to see where we won more two-penalties. That’s how we play against opponents that qualify for the World Cup and I hope they can do it.Return to Sohu, see more
