0-1 defeat to Oscar, Mui, Yan Junling and other absolute main forces of SIPG, Evergrande although losing, but won the future, can be described as a defeat. It has to be mentioned that Zheng Zhi, the tactical adjustment of this game is once again eye-catching, pre-game Yan Dinghao position to the pseudo-center position, a way of using Conca in such a way before Lippi. Unfortunately, Evergrande's young players' poor ability to grasp opportunities made Zheng Zhi's magic strokes futile.
The final battle of the Chinese Super League began to be fought, with Evergrande, ranked No. 2, facing No. 3 SIPG. In terms of this lineup, Evergrande sent Zhang Linpeng, Deng Hanwen, Wu Shaocong, Yang Liyu, Ling Jie, Yan Dinghao and others to start, while SIPG sent Liu Zhurun, Hu Jinghang, Oscar, Yan Junling and others to play.
Only 6 minutes into the first half, Evergrande Midway brilliantly cooperated, Hou Yu scalpel straight plug, Deng Hanwen successfully countered offside, burst into the penalty area to form a single knife opportunity, after passing the opposing goalkeeper due to the angle is too small to shoot in the side-netting. Evergrande missed a good opportunity to score.
In the 25th minute, Evergrande midfielder broke the ball to play a quick counterattack, Hou Yu midfielder obliquely blocked, Ling Jie quickly inserted into the penalty area to swing past the goalkeeper, there was no angle when he wanted to hit the goal, so he did it back, Yan Dinghao's angry shot at the ball was once again blocked by the other side.
In the 28th minute, Lu Wenjun made a long diagonal pass at the back, Liu Zhurun quickly inserted, successfully countered offside, and shot at the goal with a pad before goalkeeper Liu Shibo attacked. 1-0, Evergrande conceded the goal first in the case of dominance.
In the first 30 minutes, Evergrande basically controlled the situation, with the number of shots against SIPG being 5-2 and the number of shots on target than 0-1, but due to the poor ability to grasp opportunities, the score was lagging behind. But even so, it has done quite well in the face of SIPG, which has an Oscar, to be able to play such a smooth fit. Especially the youth training young player Hou Yu, a rare outbreak in this game, almost became famous in one battle.
In this regard, the famous Xu Yang also praised Evergrande, believing that the team coached by Zheng Zhi played very methodically, and no matter which position to make up for the new players, they knew how to play, and played very calmly. And this is all the credit of coach Zheng Zhi.
Due to the backward score, Evergrande began to make two consecutive substitutions in the second half, replacing Deng Hanwen and Hou Yu with Wang Shilong and Zhong Yihao respectively, and switching the formation to 3 defenders.
In the 53rd minute, Evergrande launched an attack on the left side, Li Xuepeng used his personal ability to eat the opponent's defender and then kicked a cross, resulting in an embarrassing direct kick out of the left bottom line, this scene also made Zheng Zhi on the sidelines very helpless. It seems that Li Xuepeng's state is indeed not ideal. Only 6 minutes later, Zheng Zhi replaced Li Xuepeng with young general Tan Kaiyuan.
In the final moments of the game, Evergrande formed a siege against SIPG. Yan Dinghao crossed the middle of the road from the bottom, and Ling Jie's shot was released by the opposing goal line. Then Yan Dinghao crossed from the left again, Ling Jie's grab point in the penalty area was kicked down by Yu Hai, and the referee awarded a penalty for the first time, and his attitude was very resolute. Zhang Linpeng took the penalty, but as a result, she deflected the ball and missed the opportunity to draw.
