Second in the league, this is the result achieved by Guangzhou with only one round left in the Chinese Super League. As long as in the final battle of the league, do not lose to Shanghai Harbor, then Guangzhou will become the runner-up of the Chinese Super League this season.
Such achievements. For a team that is on the verge of disbandment, has not paid a salary for several months, and competes in the league with an all-Chinese class, it is really valuable.
It is also worth mentioning that in order to allow enough rest time for several internationals in the team. Guangzhou's executive coach Zheng Zhi also gave Liu Dianzuo and Jiang Guangtai a holiday in advance, allowing them to leave the Chinese Super League early.
After Liu Dianzuo left the team early, substitute goalkeeper Liu Weiguo became the team's starting goalkeeper in the match between Guangzhou and Changchun Yatai.
Although Liu Weiguo is a native of Tianjin, he is a player from Luneng Football School. In 2011, the 19-year-old Liu Weiguo entered the Luneng first team, but due to the abundant talent in the Luneng team, Liu Weiguo was never able to get the opportunity to play.
Under such circumstances, Liu Weiguo transferred to Dalian Albin, the predecessor of Dalian Renren, in the 2012 season. After joining Albin, Liu Weiguo soon made his Debut in the Chinese Super League and performed very well in the league. This season, Liu Weiguo played a total of 11 games for Dalian in the Chinese Super League, of which only 5 goals were conceded in the first 6 games.
In the summer of 2015, Liu Weiguo transferred to the Chinese Super League hegemon Guangzhou Evergrande, and since then he has been loaned to Liaoning Hongyun, Yinchuan Helanshan and Inner Mongolia Zhongyou and other Chinese Super League Chinese First Division and Chinese Second Division teams.
The reason why Liu Weiguo frequently "wandered" in the Chinese Super League and the Chinese First Division is mainly because his performance in the game is very unstable. Sometimes, Liu Weiguo can send a wonderful save in the game. At other times, he will often make very low-level or even amateur mistakes.
During his time in Inner Mongolia Zhongyou, he made mistakes in the team's match against Shijiazhuang Yongchang that are difficult for amateur players to make. In this battle, the Yongchang team played a rapid counterattack in the second half, and Liu Weiguo, who rushed out of the penalty area to break the siege, actually kicked the air, allowing the opponent's foreign aid Muric to easily hit the empty goal. Because of this amateur mistake, Liu Weiguo was ridiculed by many fans after the game.
Although Liu Weiguo was embarrassed by his big responsibility, due to the shortage of personnel in the goalkeeper position of Evergrande last season, Liu Weiguo returned to Guangzhou to serve as a substitute for Liu Dianzuo in the team.
This season, Liu Weiguo has only played 2 Games in the Chinese Super League for Guangzhou, one of which was the last round of Guangzhou and Changchun Yatai. In this game, Liu Weiguo once again made a low-level mistake, almost letting Guangzhou team lose the goal.
In such a situation, Zheng Zhi is likely to give the 24-year-old goalkeeper Liu Shibo a chance. Let the young goalkeeper, who has been selected for many national teams such as the national youth, the olympic team and the U23 national team, represent Guangzhou in the final battle of the Chinese Super League this season.
As the third goalkeeper of Guangzhou this season, Liu Shibo can get a rare opportunity to start in the Chinese Super League. Here, we also hope that Liu Shibo can seize this opportunity and play well in the game. Create favorable conditions for yourself to be able to continue to stay in the Chinese Super League next season.
After all, today's Chinese Super League is not as thriving as it was a few years ago. A player who does not have enough strength and cannot prove himself in the league may find it difficult to continue to survive in the professional league in China in the future...
