Just after the 2022 AFC Champions League grouping and schedule was released, the Chinese Super League BIG4 once again fell into a tangled process, the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League schedule overlapped, which to choose? In the end, the 4 teams gave different answers, Yatai basically did not hesitate, became the first team to quit, and the harbor was waiting for the end, the plan could not catch up with the change, and could not find a suitable round-trip plane in the end, becoming the second team to retire, at this time, the champion Taishan and the third runner-up Guangzhou team have embarked on the journey to open a new round of the AFC Champions League journey.
However, the two teams that went out were both youth troops with almost no game experience, which was once again reminiscent of last year's scene, the same youth team, the goal was pierced by the opponent, looking at the frustrated faces of the childish young players, playing as if suffering. Now that he is out again, in fact, the outside world is ready to lose, but the first matchday is the birth of two fiascos, first Taishan 0-7 South Korea's Daegu FC, followed by Guangzhou's 0-5 Malaysia's Johor DT, the two teams were basically suppressed, and there were few opportunities.
The above start is even worse than last year, Taishan came up to equal the Chinese Super League team AFC Champions League fiasco of the humiliating record, originally hoped that Guangzhou team can have a breakthrough, after all, last year has participated, but only lost 2 goals, do not forget, the opponent is malaysia's team, put in the past, the Chinese Super League team has long put 3 points in the plan, but now it is so crazy by the opponent to break the goal. Since this is the first round of the AFC Champions League group stage, the two opponents are not the strongest in the group, so the next game does not rule out the occurrence of fiasco.
In 5 hours, 2 games, conceded 12 goals, the worst start in the history of the Chinese Super League was born. It is undeniable that in today's AFC Champions League stage, the Chinese Super League team has been completely reduced to a chicken rib, and even a tool for each team to strive for goal difference, not to mention that Guangzhou is still the winner of the 2-time AFC Champions League.
Even so, we still have to thank Taishan and Guangzhou, at least two teams did not shrink their heads, knowing that it was a fiasco or bravely participated, and since it has begun, they cannot withdraw from the tournament, they can only continue to go on, keeping the last 2 qualifications, letting the outside world see the gap between young players, accumulating AFC Champions League experience, and learning in the fiasco may also be an inspiration for young players.
