The Chinese Football Association (CFA) released the list of 26 players who will participate in the East Asian Cup on the 30th. China, which replaced Branko Ivankovic and replaced Dejan Djurjevic, the head coach of the U-20 national team, included the majority of the main players in the remaining positions except for goalkeeper Wang Daray, who announced his retirement from the national team.
The most eye-catching of all is Wang Yu-dong (Zhejiang FC), which is considered the beginning of Chinese soccer. Wang Wang-dong, who stood out at the U-20 Asian Cup in January, was called to the senior national team in the third qualifying round of the World Cup in March and made his A-match debut as a substitute against Australia. Wang Wang-dong, who had been raising his stock price with an outstanding performance in the Chinese Super League, played in all two games of the third qualifying round in June, and in the final match against Bahrain, he made an A-match masu-hulpo with a penalty goal and then roared without his top. Chinese fans and local media should quickly send them to Europe for growth over Wang Yu-dong, who continues to play for the national team and his team' He looks excited with anticipation. Rumors have it that German Bundesliga and French Ligue 1 scouts are watching him. When the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) recently failed to list the best 11 candidates for the third qualifying round, Sohu said, `It is unimaginable that he was not nominated for the AFC best 11 despite his outstanding performance,' adding, `I don't know if he needs more experience because he is too young or if he is not satisfied with the overall performance of the Chinese national team.'

The East Asian Cup is a competition in which South Korea, Japan and China automatically advance and a total of four teams, including one team that passed the preliminary round among the remaining EAFF member countries, will determine the winner in a full league format. China ranked at the top of the tournament in 2005 and 2010 and has the second-highest number of wins (two times) after Korea (five times). In particular, during the 2010 Japanese competition, Gao Hong-bo took the helm and met South Korea, led by Huh Jung-moo, and won the game 3-0.
The Chinese national team plans to convene in Dalian on the 2nd and enter the country from the 4th to the 5th.
