How do you know he is their best defender?

He's played in every game. 2nd Most capped. From his wiki:

Zhang is known by the nickname Zhangmos for his similarity in looks and playing style as Sergio Ramos. An offensive minded defender, Zhang is also known for his tackling ability and aerial game.[1] He was highly praised by Italian manager Marcello Lippi who described him as "the best Chinese footballer in the Chinese Super League".[2][3]

No Zhangmos, respect. Dude looks scary.

China's #16 looks like he sells vegetables for living (sabziforooshe)

Thailand would be a Dream Opponent for a possible QF.
Out of the remaining 16 Teams they are the weakest and easiestTeam to
beat.

[Tehranto]

Thailand almost score! Damn.

[Philosophy_King]

Such a pitty for Thailand.

3 points for me correct prediction 2-1 china

[persian-eagle-13]

China wins 2-1 FT

Thai were very weak

[freak]

What a shite game. Chinese players lack any sort of technique or tactical understanding. If Iran wins today, I honestly don’t think China will be able to get inside our box in the QF. What a crappy game that was. That number 7 is a disgrace to the game.

[BacheLot]

there a few yellows handed today to chinese
how does that effect suspension for QF ?

[Under Lahaf]

^ I think all yellows are removed for QF

Still i would prefer to play against the Thais much more, with China you never know.
They have Lippi and caused us some trouble in the past.

The 3th team in our group is winning over Jordan the team that won Australia.

That’s football and these types of tournments.hey we’ve seen the same exact thing happen to Iran in the past Asian cups. It might even happen this time too. STAY TUNED!!!
