VTC NewsVTC News14/10/2024


Xinhua News Agency has just published an article with the title: "China's team is desperate in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers ". Writer Wei Hua assessed that the chance for the Chinese team to continue is "very slim" after 3 consecutive losses.

Up to this point, China and Kyrgyzstan are the two teams with the worst records with 3 consecutive losses. The team comes from the country of a billion people. China opened the qualifying campaign with a 0-7 defeat to Japan.

They were then beaten 2-1 by Saudi Arabia. Branko Ivankovic's side lost 3-1 in Australia last Thursday. The series of defeats left China bottom of Group C with zero points and a goal difference of minus 10.

Chinese press is pessimistic about the national team.

Chinese press is pessimistic about the national team.

The 3rd qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup in Asia has 18 teams divided into 3 groups, each group has 6 teams and plays 2 home and away matches. The top two teams in each group will qualify for the World Cup. The 3rd and 4th ranked teams in each group will enter the 4th qualifying round and continue to compete for a place. With this format, the Chinese team is not out of chances, especially when Indonesia ranked 5th with only 3 points, the 3 teams above each have only 4 points.

" The Indonesian team has long been seen as an easy challenge for China, but things are different now. Although their head-to-head record is worse than China's, Indonesia is a much more advanced team than in previous outings.

With the presence of more than 10 naturalized players, most of whom play in European leagues, Indonesia has become an emerging team not to be underestimated, as evidenced by its strong performance in the opening matches, with draws against Saudi Arabia, Australia and Bahrain ," Xinhua said.

To prepare for this match, the Chinese Football Association chartered a private plane to bring the players back from Australia. However, Indonesia did the same and arrived much earlier than the host.

The match between China and Indonesia takes place on October 15.
