The 2021 China League One is about to usher in the finale, one of the two direct overtaking places has been won by the three towns of Wuhan, while the other is about to be firmly acquired by Meizhou Hakka.
Meizhou Hakka in the next round to meet the three towns of Wuhan that have already rushed to overtake, one point is the bottom line. For the three towns of Wuhan, why not be a shunshui person? Not to mention just a draw, not a loss.
Meizhou against Wuhan, Zhejiang against Chengdu, unified arrangements on the afternoon of the 18th. That is to say, when Zhejiang and Chengdu played, Meizhou was ready to rush to the next venue. Regardless of the outcome of Meizhou and Wuhan, this match between Zhejiang and Chengdu will be the third battle without compromise.
It is a pity that Zhejiang and Chengdu lost their qualifications for the top two early. On the one hand, the three towns of Wuhan and Meizhou Hakka have played well, with 14 consecutive wins and 13 consecutive wins, which are unattainable; on the other hand, their poor performance is the main reason.
Zhejiang won 1 win, drew 1 and lost 2 of the 4 games in the first round of the fourth stage, only taking Kunshan, drawing guizhou, and losing to Chengdu and Wuhan in succession, resulting in an early loss of initiative. If you can get 3 more points and drag down your opponents, you won't be so passive. Whether it is strong or not is the key factor for the Zhejiang team to fall into a downturn. The main team members' ability to resist pressure is not strong, the psychological quality is not strong enough, and the defects of tactical routines are continuously detonated, so that the situation is out of control.
Chengdu Rongcheng lost points in the third stage, losing points consecutively when encountering middle and upper-middle teams such as Heilongjiang Bingcheng, so that the ranking slipped to the fourth place, and there was a difference of 6 points between the second place before the start of the fourth stage.
This crushed the Chengdu team. The huge mistake of goalkeeper Zhang Yinuo is still criticized and questioned by many fans. Under heavy pressure, the Chengdu team, in the first round of the fourth stage against the three towns of Wuhan, encountered the opponent's fairy ball, and could not turn over. Although efforts have been made to catch up since then, a wave of four consecutive wins has not changed this backward situation, and the competition for the top two is only theoretically possible.
The second leg in Zhejiang and Chengdu, although meaningless for the two teams to compete for the top two, is decisive for who wins the third place.
Third, it means that in the playoffs it will be the last place in the super league, and the fourth place will be against the fifteenth place in the super league in the playoffs. Judging from this matchup, winning third place is very advantageous for winning the play-offs.
Judging from the recently opened Relegation Group matches in the Chinese Super League, Qingdao team only accumulated 7 points and became the last place, losing 0-3 to Shanghai Shenhua, and performed extremely badly. Seeing that the team shows no signs of improvement, head coach Wu Jingui has resigned. The morale of the team is low, and it is difficult to exert great combat effectiveness. The battle for the penultimate place is very fierce, Tianjin Jinmen Tiger, Dalian Renren, Cangzhou Lions all accumulated 10 points, and the final result is still difficult to say. The combat effectiveness of these three teams is also much stronger than that of Qingdao team.
In this case, as a team aiming to rush to the top, it is obvious that it is much more likely that the Qingdao team will successfully win the Chinese Super League place. Therefore, Zhejiang and Chengdu will inevitably fight for the third place.
In the first leg of the meeting between the two sides, Chengdu Rongcheng won 3-1 against Zhejiang team to take the lead and psychologically prevailed. Because it is dominant in the relationship between winning and losing, it only takes a draw to lead Zhejiang in the same points. This is very beneficial for Chengdu. Coupled with chengdu's recent excellent performance, after a wave of consecutive victories over strong enemies, full of confidence.
Key players have played well, especially the two major foreign players Felipe and Romulo, who have played a huge role in the offensive line. And head coach Xu Zhengyuan also seems to have found the key to the use of foreign aid, Leonardo Silva and Romulo started, Felipe substitute rotation, the effect is much better than the third stage. Romulo's recovery of form played a role in threading the needle, passing the key ball several times.
Therefore, in the second battle against the Zhejiang team, the Chengdu team is full of confidence and is determined to use victory to meet the final battle. If Chengdu wins, then Chengdu will definitely get the third place, and there is no need to think about the victory or defeat of the last game.
In contrast, the Zhejiang team has been in a very general state recently. Although it won 2-1 against Kunshan and 6-1 against Guizhou, it was still criticized by many fans. After all, the overall performance did not meet expectations. And the game was bumpy and unconvincing. Against Guizhou, in the case of the other side rotating 4 U23s, Zhejiang was scored by the other side at the beginning, almost overturning the ship again, making the fans pinch a sweat.
Fortunately, Matthews then used the penalty to quickly equalize and regain the initiative, and then the front court players blossomed everywhere, and the goals followed, and finally ushered in a big victory and a bad breath.
This game reflects that the zhejiang team's play is not stable, the back line center back is frizzy, the defender defense is arbitrary, the back defense is not hard enough, the front court attack is single, stagnant, and it looks heart-wrenching. What if such a team overtakes? Every Zhejiang fan who cares about Greentown is extremely bitter and entangled in his heart. I hope that the Zhejiang team can rush to succeed as soon as possible, but I am worried about such a lineup, why does such a performance stand in the Chinese Super League?
December 18th, for the Zhejiang team, is not a gray day. Meizhou Hakka rushed to overtake, Chengdu Rongcheng locked in the third, and the Zhejiang team, can not compete for a breath?
