this was ivankovic's sixth match as the coach of the chinese national football team, with a total of 1 win, 2 draws and 3 losses. after this match, the chinese national football team has a total record of 7 wins, 5 draws and 9 losses against saudi arabia, scoring 25 goals and conceding 28 goals. the last time they defeated their opponents was in the 2015 asian cup, and the last time they defeated their opponents in the world cup qualifiers was in 1997.

jiang shenglong said in a post-match interview: "i am very sorry to the fans who supported us. we did not hold on to the end even though we had one more player and did not get the final 3 points. i think the opponent is in the same situation as us. if we lose, we lose. it's probably because we don't have enough ability. we can repay the fans who support us with a better performance in the next game."
