With Wu Xinghan's wonderful volley, The Taishan team finally locked the score at 5-0 and won the opening red of the second stage of the 2021 Chinese Super League. Due to the weakness of the opponent, this big victory will not make the Taishan fans too excited. But the team still showed something different in this game, let everyone see hope, and even rekindled confidence in Chinese football.
Moises returned to the starting squad, but Fellaini and Judsson were both foreign players and the FA Cup-breaking Delgado were placed on the bench. The opposite Hebei team sent 6 U23 players in the starting lineup, including 4 U21, and Leonardo, who was loaned from Taishan, did not enter the big list because of avoidance.
Taishan's start was smooth, in the 12th minute, captain Zheng Zheng knocked on the door of Hebei with a world cup long-range shot outside the penalty area, and in the 24th minute, Xu Xin's cross from the left was slightly adjusted by Liu Yang in the penalty area to expand the score. After being pushed to the front of the FA Cup match, Liu Yang also continued to appear in the left forward position in this game, and it seems that Hao Wei has found the all-rounder's instruction manual.
In the second half, Taishan continued to occupy absolute initiative, and in the 64th minute, Moises assisted Guo Tianyu's header to score the ninth goal of the season in the Chinese Super League. Subsequently, Wu Xinghan, who came off the bench, scored twice in 4 minutes, and Delgado and Liu Binbin received assists respectively. The Tarzan team won a big victory without bloodshed, continuing to maintain a 5-point lead over Harbor and Yatai.
Zheng Zheng in 89, Wu Xinghan in 1993, Liu Yang in 1995 and Guo Tianyu in 1999, 5 players from Luneng academy have scored all 5 goals, and their ages also happen to cover 4 age groups. In fact, all the goals scored in a single game are scored by their own youth players, which is a rare event in the Chinese Super League in the past 10 years. But appearing on the Tarzan team is a common thing.
In fact, after completely abandoning jinyuan football in 2017, the Taishan team pursued the policy of "slowly becoming king of broad grain", began to practice internal skills hard, and actively tapped the potential of youth players. In the third round of the 2018 Chinese Super League, Shandong Taishan beat the Hebei team 2-1 away, and in that game, Li Xiaopeng braggedly arranged 3 U23 players in the starting lineup, and still managed to take 3 points from the Hebei team with Ravitch, Mascherano and Hernáñez.
In the 24th round of the 2019 Chinese Super League, Shandong Taishan won 3-1 at home to defending champions Shanghai SIPG, compared with the happy victory, the uniqueness of the Taishan team's starting lineup in that game was not too much noticed, that is, in addition to Pele, Moises and Fellaini, the other 7 starters were all from the Luneng youth training system, of which Liu Binbin passed Andong, Duan Liu Yu and Zhang Chi also received assists and goals respectively.
After Li Xiaopeng left office, Hao Wei, who took over the coaching whip of the Taishan team, continued to adhere to the policy of digging deep into the youth training, the second stage of the Chinese Super League ranked 6-3 overtime victory over Hebei team, Taishan started 11 people, substitutes played 6 people, 17 players in luneng youth training players reached 10, after all the substitutions were completed, Taishan team players in addition to 4 foreign aides, the rest are all from their own youth training.
Coupled with this game, as the Hebei team that once had the nickname of "Luneng Second Team" has witnessed the style of Taishan's youth players for three times, but although the game has been lost, the Hebei team does not need to be discouraged, in this game, their 6 starting U23 players and Gong Qiule, who came off the bench, also showed the strength of youth training, as a Chinese Super League local tycoon, Hebei team's investment in youth training is not less than that of the first team, they have a complete echelon in a short period of time, and now young players have begun to emerge in the Chinese Super League. Therefore, although Taishan is a model in the Chinese Super League, Hebei team must also live well, and the team that attaches importance to youth training deserves to be respected.
