According to sources, in the last closed training session, coach Li Tie is leaning towards playing with a 4-4-2 formation to score early. The press of this country affirmed that scoring as soon as possible can not only relieve a certain amount of pressure but also create psychological strength for the opponent. For more than 1 month in the UAE, the Chinese team's coaching staff has put a lot of physical effort, some of their players have lost a lot of weight. During more than 20 days of training, the Chinese national football team focused on training set-kick tactics, especially corner kicks and free kicks, and defending against counter-attacks.
Determined to get 3 points, it seems that naturalized Brazilian foreign players Ai Kesen and Wu Lei will start, another naturalized Brazilian foreign player Alan will be the reserve option. The Chinese team practices a lot of high crosses, but it seems that option 2 is to exploit the weakness of the average height of the defense. The current Vietnamese team is less than 1.8m.
At that time, coach Li Tie will put young strikers with good headers like Zhang Yuning (1.85m) on the field. Brazilian naturalized striker No. 21 Guo Tianyu, although he was injured in the first two matches and could not appear, has recently recovered from his injury and lost 5kg. Opportunities such as set pieces, corner kicks, players like midfielder Jiang Guangtai who played for England U21 can also threaten the Vietnamese team's goal with headers. Except for Zhu Chenjie and Li Lei who are injured, the remaining 30 players can all play, including Zhang Linpeng and Wang Gang who have just recovered from injury.
Play 2 strikers
Goalkeeper position, Yan Junling's starting position is very solid, he is also Li Tie's most reliable goalkeeper. In defense, Zhang Linpeng has returned from injury, he can play at right back, because in training Li Ang and Jiang Guangtai are playing with the center back, and the left back will be Wang Shenchao.
In the midfield, 32-year-old midfielder Wu Xi will be in the starting lineup. It is known that Que Ngoc Hai often reads the newspaper before the match, so he should pay attention to this information. The player who has 71 caps for this team is the conductor of the midfield area of the Chinese opponent, responsible for intercepting and recovering the ball.
In training, both Zhang Yuning and Guo Tianyu were the red team's choices, and at times Wu Lei was even moved to the wing. The Chinese coaching staff also had other wingers, Wu Xinghan or Jin Jingdao, who both had different playing styles, so Li Tie could also adjust them depending on the match situation. Before the match, Wu Lei said: "Our goal is to win against Vietnam, and everyone is very confident of winning this match."

The Chinese team's lineup for this match is expected to be adjusted. It is believed that tall young striker and midfielder Zhang Yuning will have the opportunity to play, using his height and strength to dominate the air in the opponent's penalty area. The Chinese team's coaching staff also noticed some weaknesses when studying the data of the first two matches of the Vietnamese team.
In addition, China will take a charter flight to return home right after the away match with the Saudi Arabian team on October 13. The Chinese team will focus on quarantine and training in Suzhou. Because the more than 40 days of training in West Asia have exhausted the players both physically and mentally. Coach LI Tie and his players all know that getting 3 points against the Vietnamese team will be much easier than when facing the host Saudi Arabia, so they are even more determined.
Two teams expected to take the field
Chinese team(4-4-2): Yan Junling; Wang Gang, Zhang Linpeng, Jiang Guangtai, Wang Shenchao; Wu Xi, Chi Zhongguo, Zhang Xizhe; Wu Xinghan, Exon, Wu Lei.
Vietnam team(3-5-2): Bui Tien Dung; Vu Van Thanh, Duy Manh, Ngoc Hai and Tien Dung, Nguyen Phong Hong Duy; Nguyen Tuan Anh, Nguyen Quang Hai, Nguyen Hoang Duc; Nguyen Tien Linh, Nguyen Cong Phuong.
