On January 4, the Chinese Super League Awards Ceremony was held after the 22nd round of competition. Shandong Taishan once again lifted the Vulcan Cup after 11 years, while the veteran strong team Harbor and Guangzhou had no chance to reach the top, and the national security that always competed for the first place fell significantly, and even the AFC Champions League tickets were not fished.
Tarzan topped the Chinese Super League
In this season's Chinese Super League, due to salary restriction policies and the epidemic, there has been a wave of foreign aid leaving the team, and big-name foreign aides such as Paulinho, Augusto, and Talisca have left. This phenomenon also completely changed the pattern of the Chinese Super League, and Guangzhou, Haigang and Guoan, which were originally regarded as favorites to win the championship, encountered difficulties, and Shandong Taishan finally stood out.
In 22 rounds of the league, Shandong achieved a record of 51 points with 15 wins, 6 draws and 1 loss. The only defeat was a 1-2 loss to Guangzhou in the 9th round. However, at that time, Guangzhou team Gao Lat and Axon were all there, and Taishan's loss was not a cold goal. Since then, Taishan has sung all the way, created a miracle of 13 rounds of undefeated, and finally won the championship three rounds in advance, which can be said that the champion finally returned here, and the championship was deserved. In addition, Tarzan also reached the final in the FA Cup. If they defeat Harbor in the final, they will become another double in the Chinese Super League to win two championships in one season.
The harbor and Guangzhou did not win the championship
Compared with the rise of Mount Taishan, haigang, Guangzhou and Guoan did not meet expectations. Oscar-led Harbour won 22-13, drew 6 and lost 3, finishing second with 45 points. Although the league did not win the championship, it also got tickets to the AFC Champions League. At the same time, the harbor, which has reached the final of the FA Cup, is still expected to win the championship. If this is the case, it can be regarded as a gain and a loss, and the loss is greater than the gain.
Eight-time champion Guangzhou's goal this season is still to win the league, but the situation has changed beyond expectations, and finally had to accept the result of 13 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses, and the result of ranking third with 44 points. Although it qualified for the AFC Champions League, for the Guangzhou team that aspires to win the championship, such a result is definitely not satisfactory. But in the last few games, in the absence of Cannavaro and the absence of Axon, Alan and Luo Guofu, the young people of guangzhou played a level under the leadership of Zheng Zhi, or let us see hope.
Guoan did not qualify for the AFC Champions League
The most lost is guoan. This season's Guoan, the FA Cup is out, the league is only fifth, and even the AFC Champions League qualification has not been obtained, which can be described as empty-handed. This is a far cry from their goal of always striving for number one. Next season, if Guoan does not make a big move and breaks the big stand, I am afraid that it will not get anything.
