China's new coach Camacho to dance with pressure

Jose Antonio Camacho is confident of fulfilling his task as coach of the Chinese men's senior national team and he also knows he needs to cope with huge pressure during his three-year spell in China. "I have been used to work under pressure. Since I started to play in Real Madrid at the age of 17, I have been married with pressure," said the 56-year-old experienced Spanish tactician, who was formally named as China's seventh foreign coach in a Sunday's news conference in Beijing. "Now I am here in China, leading the Chinese team and facing expectations from Chinese fans. Such pressure is beautiful, me and my team will try every means not letting the fans down." The news came with only 19 days left ahead of China's World Cup qualifying match against Singapore on September 2. And Camacho, whose coaching staff also includes an assisting coach, a physical coach and a technical analyst from Spain, knew he would not only have to deal with the pressure but also to battle with the limited time.
