This defeat has officially caused the Chinese team to say goodbye to the dream of the 2026 World Cup. Just a few hours after this defeat, the Chinese newspaper Sohu headlined: "What a shame! The Chinese national team missed the World Cup for the sixth consecutive time and lost to Indonesia for the first time in 68 years."
In the article, the newspaper commented: "China lost with the only goal in the first half, with Yang Zexiang's stupid penalty. This is also the first time in 68 years that the Chinese team lost to Indonesia. And after four consecutive losses, the Chinese team once again fell on the road to the World Cup. Coach Ivankovic failed to complete his mission and his dismissal was inevitable."
Chinese fans also expressed their anger by criticizing their team's performance. One account commented: "Another poor and lifeless performance from the Chinese team. The players have no determination, even when conceding a goal. Maybe we should just abandon the football team."
Many people think that the Chinese Football Association (CFA) should choose a world- class coach to help revive the national team. One comment reads: "Coach Ivankovic should leave, he has left absolutely no mark since leading the team. CFA needs to choose a world-class coach like Mourinho for example."
