on the evening of the 10th, beijing time, in the second round of the world cup qualifiers, the saudi team challenged the chinese team away. after falling behind 0-1 and having one less player, the saudi team scored two goals from two corner kicks and eventually defeated the chinese team 2-1, winning their first victory in the round of 18.
after the game, saudi arabia coach mancini said, "congratulations to my players, they played a perfect game, played one less player for a long time, persisted for 90 minutes and won the game."
saudi arabian player kadish, who scored twice, said, “as the head coach said, this was not an easy game, especially with one man less. it is very important to win three points. i want to thank all my teammates, everyone is great, and we will keep moving forward.”
around the 80th minute of the game, mancini changed the situation by replacing three players. regarding the timely adjustment, mancini said, "we wanted to win the game very much and had a strong desire to win. we replaced the players with strong offensive power at the last moment just to win the game."
regarding the topic of whether the two corner kick goals were designed, mancini said, "there is no targeted training. what we do is try as much as possible. there is no special preparation for corner kicks."
with 1 win and 1 draw in two games, they have 4 points. as for the prospects of qualifying, mancini believes it is too early to discuss it now. "there are still eight games left. the next game against japan is very important. all the games are very difficult."
how to deal with one less player? mancini revealed, "the red card situation is unclear. i think the player made a mistake. we have a strong desire to win. i changed tactics by replacing kadish with the left back and changing the formation (4-4-1)."
