The World Cup is out of reach, the round of 18 is already the limit, and the national football team 0-1 Indonesia was surpassed by Thailand for the first time

In the 9th round of Group C of the top 18 of the Asian region of the World Preliminary Championship, the national football team lost 0-1 to Indonesia away and missed the 2026 US-Canada-Mexico World Cup one round ahead of schedule, which is also the national football team's failure to impact the World Cup 6 times after the 2002 World Cup in Japan and South Korea. Perhaps many fans regret that in fact, the national football team is the weakest team in Group C, and it is the Singapore goalkeeper who can advance to the round of 18, but in fact, the strength of the national football team is not as good as Thailand.

According to reporter Ma Dexing, after the national football team lost to Indonesia, because the national football team ranked much higher than Indonesia, the loss of this game dropped 15.05 points, so the national football team's world ranking was surpassed by Thailand for the first time. The decline in the national football ranking will affect the 2027 Asian Cup classification, and if the national football team continues to decline in the rankings, it will participate in the 2027 Asian Cup as the third bracket.

From a personal point of view, the national football team's ranking is seriously inflated, and it is not a bad thing that the ranking continues to decline, and the fig leaf of the Chinese men's football team will be torn off sooner or later, only in this way can the national football team put down the shelf, learn from the pain, and start over. At this stage, the Chinese men's football team has no cure, only the youth training starts from scratch, 10 years, 20 years plan, with the current strength of the Chinese men's football team, it is a joke to talk about the World Cup in a short time, maybe participating in the top 18 is already the limit, if it is not lucky, the national football team has not to participate in the top 18 of this year. Thinking about it this way, it is acceptable for the national football team to be at the bottom of Group C in the round of 18. The national football player is the third-rate player in Asia, so Ivankovic is the fourth-rate coach, I hope the Chinese Football Association can find a younger coach with tactical ideas for the national football team, instead of a 70+ year-old old man.

Only by bottoming out can we rebound, don't let the watery world ranking hurt the Chinese men's football team again, and play with strong teams to make progress, rather than spending money at home to invite "fish belly" to brush points to cover up and steal the bell. The Chinese men's football team must go the right way, and the world ranking will go with him! If you don't put down your body, how can you work hard!
