i.e. not a full international match.
Having got the team to the world cup, Halil deserved a chance to guide them through the tournament. Player power is usually not good and changing the manager just before a tournament usually doesn't happen, for good reason.

If he is such a national team mastermind then why hasnt he been coaching the national team and winning things for them? The last thing he won was 8 years ago. The last thing he won of note was 10 years ago. Not that impressive.

bad form dropping a coach that gets you to the big dance for someone that doesn't know the music.

He knows the music because he has been the Technical Director for JFA the past 2-3 years with supporting the national team one of his main jobs. So he was probably the "safe choice" for the job.
