In 2026, the World Cup expansion of the Chinese team needs to improve the "gear" as soon as possible

(Reporter Zhao Rui) Yesterday, after the AFC announced the 2026 World Cup expansion of the United States and Canada, it had 8.5 places in Asia. At present, the Chinese team is ranked 11th in Asia, and it is not difficult to impact the World Cup voucher.

In the 2026 World Cup Asia preparations, four stages were divided into four stages. In the first stage, 22 teams in Asia ranked 26th to 47th will perform two rounds with the main and live system, and 11 winning teams will be promoted to the second stage. In the second stage, the top 25 teams in Asia and the 11th teams were divided into 9 groups. Each group was divided into 4 teams. 2027 Asian Cup. In the third stage, 18 teams were divided into 3 groups, with 6 teams in each group to play the main and away two -way competition. The top two teams in the three groups were directly eligible for the 2026 World Cup. In the fourth stage, the third and fourth teams of the three groups in the fourth stage are divided into 2 groups, each of which 3 teams each group, a single cycle contest, the first place in the two groups advances to the 2026 World Cup, and the second group of the two groups In a single game, the winner represents Asia in the World Cup preliminaries.

The Chinese team participated in the next World Cup preliminaries to start from the second stage and the top 36. The top 36 competition is similar to the first two Asia 40 competitions. The Chinese team should do their own preparations. It should have great hope to obtain a group of quotas. The real difficulty is the third stage that is the top 18. If the Chinese team participates in the fourth gear, not only does it have little hope to go on the line directly, but it is also difficult to qualify for the Asian playoffs. In the near future, strive to improve your Asian ranking, and first win the dispute over the gear of the top 36 and the top 18.

It is reported that the establishment of the new Chinese team is quietly promoting. In the future, the question of who is commanded by the Chinese team needs to be discussed from a long way.
