The final stage of the Chinese Super League was in full swing, after the first round of the relegation group was played, the relegation situation had a clear trend, Shanghai Shenhua scored 25 points, leading the relegation group, Henan Songshan Longmen 18 points ranked second in the relegation group, Wuhan team ranked third in the relegation group with 14 points, Chongqing Liangjiang Athletic ranked 4th in the relegation group with 12 points, Cangzhou Lions, Dalian renren and Tianjin Jinmen Tigers tied for the second-to-last with 10 points, and Qingdao team ranked first with 7 points.
Statistics show that Tianjin Jinmen Tiger and Qingdao team have become the top 2 favorites for relegation, Tianjin Jinmen Tiger has only 12 goals this season, losing 30 goals, Qingdao team has only 6 goals, losing 37 goals, the performance of both teams at both ends of the attack and defense is the worst in the whole Chinese Super League, and the strength and status go straight to the middle division. According to the record, Qingdao became the worst team in the Chinese Super League this season, starting with a 2-0 loss to Henan Songshan Longmen in the sixth round of the first stage of the Chinese Super League, until the latest 3-0 loss to Shanghai Shenhua, suffering a rare 10-losing streak, with no hope of relegation.
Due to the difficulty of one win and the difficulty of scoring a goal, Qingdao set two major humiliating records, the first and fifth consecutive Chinese Super League matches were clean sheeted and lost, which is the worst performance among Chinese Super League teams this season; the second, 10 consecutive rounds of Chinese Super League games lost, is the longest losing streak in the history of the Chinese Super League. In the face of such a bad state, Qingdao coach Wu Jingui has chosen to leave, and the 0-3 loss to Shenhua has been replaced by Yang Weijian to lead the team.
Although there is no direct relegation quota in the Chinese Super League this season, Qingdao is still afraid of relegation, the current team record is bad, the team operation has also been in trouble, and most Chinese Super League teams have fallen into financial trouble, resulting in foreign aid and local players have no morale. According to the rules, this season's first and second from the bottom of the Chinese Super League will enter the play-offs, and the third and fourth place teams in the Chinese League one to play against each other, Qingdao team's current state and strength, even if it encounters the Chinese First Division team, it is also likely to lose, the third and fourth teams in the Chinese First Division are basically locked in Chengdu Rongcheng and Zhejiang, both teams have relatively excellent state, and the club operation is also very stable.
On the card, Qingdao team actually has enough strength to relegate, there are 3 foreign aid pressure, Radonic, Alexandrini, Vukovic carried the central axis of the team, but unfortunately the team has been unable to form a joint force, the lineup of the full middle and back three lines appear to be very fragile, making the team suffer 10 consecutive defeats, the last 5 games of 0 goals, the number of goals conceded up to 15 goals, it can be said that the offensive and defensive ends have collapsed. For the current situation of the Qingdao team, Shanghai Shenhua can be said to have done its best, as a club with a very good relationship with the Qingdao team, Shenhua not only let Wu Jingui support the Qingdao team, but also a group of outstanding local players also supported the Qingdao team, including Zhu Jianrong, Zhou Junchen, Wang Wei, Wang Fei, Li Peng and others, of which Zhu Jianrong became the top scorer of the Qingdao team this season, scored 5 goals, and still could not reverse the tragic situation of the Qingdao team. At 19:00 on the evening of December 15, Beijing time, Qingdao team ushered in the second round of relegation group competition, the opponent is Wuhan team, in this season's FA Cup, Qingdao team lost 0-4 to Wuhan team, this battle may be another fiasco.
