Probably because he watched the last video with Guoan, he felt that in the vacuum area of the midfield position, he could pass the threatening ball. "Zheng Zhi sent himself to start this time, which can be described as both targeted and effective, and the talent of the general is in one. In the game, Zheng Zhi ran through the front, middle and back three zones, covering both ends of the attack and defense, especially the passing and processing of the midfield, showing outstanding rationality, and the Guangzhou team had Zheng Zhi on the field, almost judging the two teams.
