Bidding farewell to 2021, we have stepped into a new 2022, but there are still two suspenseful doubts in the 2021 season of Chinese football.
Who will lift the FA Cup
After the end of the Chinese Super League, Shandong Taishan and Shanghai Harbor rushed from Guangzhou to Chengdu to prepare for the FA Cup final there on January 9.
With many Chinese Super League clubs experiencing financial crises, the Chinese Professional Football League has evolved into a contest between Shandong Taishan and Shanghai Haigang, which is indeed the most stable club in the Chinese Super League. The just-concluded Chinese Super League staged a battle between Taishan and the dragon and tiger of the harbor. However, Shandong Taishan relied on the advantages accumulated in the first stage of the league and the two goals in the first leg of the dialogue between the two sides to win the 2021 Chinese Super League.
The final of the FA Cup is also a showdown between Shandong Taishan and Shanghai Haigang. Although Shandong Taishan has a win and a draw in the two-legged match of the Chinese Super League, the FA Cup is a format for determining the outcome of the game, and there will be great uncertainty. Who can laugh to the end depends on the tactical arrangement of the two team coaches and the on-the-spot performance of the players on the field.
Who can take the last train of the Chinese Super League last season
Dalian and Qingdao are both cities with great football heritage. However, after 8 rounds of competition in the relegation group of the Chinese Super League, Dalian and Qingdao ranked two to the bottom of the relegation group and had to participate in the play-offs of the Relegation And Relegation group of the Chinese Super League.
Dalian will play against Chengdu Rongcheng, fourth place in the Chinese First Division, and Qingdao will face Zhejiang, who is ranked third in the Chinese First Division, and the winners of their respective matches will qualify for the 2022 Chinese Super League. The Chinese Super League relegation play-offs are a two-legged format with matches to be played on January 8 and 12, respectively.
The situation of the Qingdao team is not optimistic. Foreign striker Radović has left the zone early, Vukovic and Alexandrini are injured, and new foreign aid Bardu has yet to run into the team. In comparison, the Zhejiang team appears to be strong and strong. Qingdao acting coach Yang Weijian said, "Now that the league is over, we have to adjust our mentality, and the most important thing is the relegation play-off in 4 days. There is still a little time before the first leg, we can prepare for the game according to the characteristics of the other side, as well as our strengths, and there is only one way to win the play-offs. ”
Because Chongqing Liangjiang Athletic and Tianjin Jinmen Tigers both won in the final round of the league, Dalian people unfortunately fell into the Chinese Super League promotion and relegation play-off. However, compared with Chengdu Rongcheng, dalian people should still have a certain chance of winning if they play normally.
