the result of the defeat was completely expected, but such a striking score and the overly one-sided process still made most chinese fans feel unacceptable. this was the most painful defeat the chinese men's national football team had ever suffered in an official match. new coach ivankovic did not show the fans any improvement in the national football team compared to the past through the game, and the top 18 match started with such a tragic defeat, so fans did not dare to hold too high hopes for future games.

sowhat is the reason?what led to this 0:7 defeat?

tactical conservatism and mistakes, which is undoubtedly one of the important reasons for the disastrous defeat.this game, china's head coach ivankovic arranged a 442 formation and chose a conservative tactic, intending to reduce the number of goals conceded by retreating to defense. this passive tactic allowed the japanese team to easily control the rhythm of the game and constantly create offensive opportunities.
