China has not achieved good results even after committing such atrocities. At that time, at the 2025 U-20 Asian Cup, China was eliminated by losing to Saudi Arabia in the quarterfinals despite its home advantage. He failed to qualify for the U-20 World Cup after falling in the quarterfinals. In fact, it was like taking only frustration and disciplinary action.
It is not the first time that disciplinary action has been taken for secretly spying on an opposing team's training. In July last year, FIFA disciplined the Canadian women's soccer team, which was discovered while attempting to collect information by flying drones to the training ground of the New Zealand team, the opponent of the first group stage of the Paris Olympics. Local police, who were dispatched after receiving a report from the New Zealand national team, arrested a Canadian national team power analyst, and FIFA has since imposed points reduction and fines as an official disciplinary action.
Meanwhile, Dejan Djurjevic, who led the Chinese U-20 national team, which was caught secretly filming the opponent team at the time, is currently acting as the Chinese national team's coach. It is not known whether coach Djurjevic ordered it himself, but if the Chinese national team does this again in the future, AFC will evaluate the issue with stricter standards, so attention will be paid to the Chinese national team's actions in the upcoming East Asian Cup.
