Recently, China is only getting hit by Korean soccer.
The Chinese national team was completely defeated 0-3 in the first match of the 2025 East Asian Football Federation (EAFF) E-1 Championship (hereinafter referred to as the East Asian Cup) against the South Korean national soccer A team at Mir Stadium in Yongin on the 7th. It was Korea without European teams, but it was no match for China's skills.
After the game, China's Dongchu-di lost 0-3 in the first round of the '2025 East Asian Cup'. Throughout the game, Chinese players made frequent mistakes, and Zhu Chenjie provided an excuse for a goal by making a heading mistake during defense. This marks China's sixth consecutive loss in the Korea-China match, and it has not scored a single goal during these six games. It is the first time in history that China has lost six consecutive games against South Korea.
In the final Asian qualifying round for the 2017 World Cup, China produced an extraordinary win over South Korea 1-0. It was China's second victory in history against South Korea. But after the victory, China's hunger is getting worse.

Since meeting China again in the 2019 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup finals, he has won six consecutive games against South Korea. South Korea is scoring 13 goals while China has not scored a single goal. It is a record that proves that the gap between China and Korea is not narrowing at all.
Regarding this game, Dejan Djurjevic, who led the team as a temporary coach, selected a large number of young players and tried to change to a double volanche tactic, but it had little effect. Four days before the second match against Japan, the Chinese national team still has a lot of work to do.

China has revealed its problems on both sides of offense and defense. He was less destructive in attack and less cohesive in defense. Wang Yi also lacks ' breakthrough tactical options, and the build-up attack did not work at all. In defense, a series of mistakes continued, and in the 11th minute of the second half, Kim Joo-sung scored a goal from a corner kick to seal the victory. This loss also resulted from Joo Cheon-je's defensive mistakes, pointing out problems on both sides of offense and defense.
China had a lot of expectations for the East Asian Cup. This is because even under the interim coach system of Djurjevic, he selected a large number of young players and fired a signal of generational change. China must have wondered whether young resources such as Wang Yidung and Kwai Jiwon, which China expected, would work against South Korea. China will be even more disappointed as the young players do not show much difference from the existing Chinese players.

Wang said 'In conclusion, the current Chinese national team still has a lot of room for improvement. But there is not much time. Four days later, he will face a more technically sophisticated Japanese team, and it is noteworthy what tactics Djurjevic should choose to prevent his losing streak.
