A year ago, Jankovic said he was confident that he could lead the national football team to the World Cup. On the 24th, the Chinese Football Association announced that because the national team failed to advance to the knockout stages of the Asian Cup, the coaching contracts of the head coach and the coaching team have been automatically terminated as agreed.
He led the team in 17 games and achieved 6 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses. He did not have many outstanding achievements during his leadership, and most of them left after one year of coaching.
