1BSPORTS 1B Sports June 12th Beijing Youth Sports reporter Xiao Nian wrote an article saying that Ivan’s dismissal is irreversible, and talked about the Football Association’s situation of appointing a new coach of the national football team.
The article reads: At present, it is unlikely that Antonio, the current U22 national football team, and Serbian coach Gurjevic, who is expected to take over the 2007 national youth team, are likely to take over the national football team because of their coaching tasks. Moreover, it is difficult for local coaches to take on the responsibility of coaching the national football team, so the Football Association will still choose excellent foreign coaches.
