China coach Aleksandar Jankovic said his team were still alive in the Asian Cup after finishing third in Group A and he was not worried about losing his job after Monday’s 1-0 loss to Qatar saw them finish the stage without scoring. China finished third with two points behind Qatar and Tajikistan having drawn their first two games and coach Jankovic said he was disappointed their "destiny doesn’t depend on us any more" with only the four best third-placed teams going through.
