This time of year, as a fan of Chinese football, should be a boring moment. Because according to the situation in previous years, the league has ended at this time, and the national brand game is also over, and there are no domestic games to watch. If you want to see the ball, you can only stay up late to see the Europa League. But this year is different, because of the World Preliminary Round of 40 and the Round of 12, our league has been suspended for nearly half a year, so until December 12th, the second stage of the Chinese Super League has just begun, that is, just recently the 15th round of the Chinese Super League has started.
However, in less than half a year, the pattern of the Chinese Super League has undergone earth-shaking changes. During this period, most of the Chinese Super League teams invariably had financial difficulties, not only a large-scale phenomenon of unpaid wages, but even some teams were almost disbanded, and even if they barely participated in the second stage of the Chinese Super League, they were likely to be disbanded after playing. And there are many local tycoon teams in these teams, including giants of the Golden Yuan era of the Chinese Super League and Guangzhou team with eight champions. During this time, the foreign coach left, the foreign aid left, and now even all the naturalized players basically do not participate, either have been terminated or are on the way to termination.
As a result, the giant, who was still the favorite to win the championship in the first stage, now has to cope with the second stage of the Chinese Super League with the lineup of the all-Chinese class. And the head coach has also been replaced by Zheng Zhi, a former national football midfield core who has never had coaching experience and is still a player of Evergrande. As a player, Zheng Zhi is still the best back in China, and he is also the most authoritative on-field captain in Chinese football. And we also hope that if Zheng Zhi retires, he can enter the coaching position and become one of the best local coaches in China. However, in this form of induction, it still makes everyone feel a little sad. But many of our fans are still looking forward to Zheng Zhi's coaching debut, because in the hearts of many fans, Zheng Zhi is a great player, and he can also become a good coach.
And the first opponent of the Guangzhou team coached by Zheng Zhi is another Chinese Super League giant, Beijing Guoan. These two teams were once the top two in the Chinese Super League, they were both brilliant, but now one is an all-Chinese class, and the other is a single foreign aid, and they are no longer the favorite teams to win the championship. But everyone is still looking forward to the collision of these two teams, because there are too many points to watch.
After the game began, both sides played proactively, creating many scoring opportunities, but the ability to grasp opportunities was not strong. So it looks very lively, but it only blossoms and does not bear fruit. At this time, it actually shows how important it is to have an efficient foreign forward. But we can't always rely on foreign strikers, so our homegrown strikers will never grow. So whoever cultivates an efficient local striker in the future will be able to take advantage of the opportunity. As far as the current two teams are concerned, it is clear that Beijing Guoan has done better.
Just after you came and went for 82 minutes, someone from Beijing Guoan stepped forward. He is the new star of the national football team, the 24-year-old center Zhang Yuning. At that time, Beijing Guoan won a corner kick on the left, and the midfielder Gao Tianyi took the penalty, and his pass was sent to the front point, finding Zhang Yuning who was ambushed at the front point. Zhang Yuning used his own physical confrontation and air superiority to still push the ball into the near corner despite being closely defended by the high-precision wing. Because of the sharp angle, the goalkeeper Liu Dianzuo had no way. The score became 1-0. And this is also the final score of this game, it can be said that Zhang Yuning's head hammer is a killer goal. The 24-year-old national football star did not give the 41-year-old national football big brother and senior face to the center-back, sending him a coaching career to open the door and help the team win successfully.
In fact, it is no accident that Guoan was able to win this game. A very important reason is that in the center position, Guoan is stronger than guangzhou team. Because in the past 2 seasons, Beijing Guoan has not completely relied on foreign forwards like other giants in the front position, they have given the young Zhang Yuning enough opportunities and time to let him grow and improve. And Zhang Yuning also returned to the national team through his own efforts, and even successfully replaced the naturalized center Axon in the national team, becoming the main center of the national team, and performed very well against Oman and Australia. And these two games also built Zhang Yuning's confidence, so from the national team back to the Guoan team, he dared to take the ball and handle the ball more. Just like this header, whether it is grabbing a point or running position, the line and strength of the shot are perfectly controlled. And you should know that Zhang Yuning has not scored a header for a long time, he has mainly used as a fulcrum to create opportunities for the team in recent years, and rarely really enters the penalty area to grab points. And this header also shows that Zhang Yuning is taking the initiative to attack. Shouldering the responsibility of scoring goals.
In fact, after watching this game, many fans have seen hope. One hope is that the new front of the national football team is really getting better and better, more and more stable, and the other is that an excellent domestic coach has begun to go on the road, although the debut failed, but the content is not bad.
