At 19:00 beijing time on April 30, Shandong Taishan team and Urawa Red Diamonds began the AFC Champions League focus showdown. This game has become a battle of honor for the Taishan team. Because the Taishan team suffered defeats in the first five group games, it missed the round of 16 of the AFC Champions League in advance. Therefore, Shandong fans hope that Taishan can play lightly and strive to score a goal while avoiding a big score loss.
Japan's Urawa Red Diamonds are recognized as a giant team in Asia, having won the AFC Champions League. In its heyday, Evergrande played Urawa Red Diamonds, and it did not take advantage of anything, not to mention the Taishan team in front of it, which was dominated by reserve players. The Tarzan team lost the city gate shortly after the opening, and urawa red diamonds knocked on the gate guarded by Cao Zheng after a simple pass. The ball once again exposed the problem of Cao Zheng's lack of goalkeeping ability, making fans feel that he was too bad.
Strictly speaking, as long as Cao Zheng's basic skills are solid, he can defuse urawa red diamonds with this threatening shot. It's just a pity that Cao Zheng is not Wang Dalei, and his level is very different from the two young goalkeepers of the Guangzhou team. Guangzhou's two young goalkeepers, He Lipan and Zhang Jihao, have performed well in the AFC Champions League this season, staging a good scene of high-end resistance. He Lipan also relied on eye-catching performance and won the AFC Champions League single-round best goalkeeper award.
Another young goalkeeper of guangzhou, Zhang Jihao, repeatedly defused the opponent's goal in the match against Kawasaki forward, and finally let Guangzhou lose only 0-1. Compared with the two young goalkeepers of the Guangzhou team who have a god-sealing performance in the AFC Champions League, Cao Zheng played for Taishan, and the overall performance was very general.
Many Taishan fans feel that Taishan and Urawa Red Diamonds lost 0-5, and Cao Zheng should be responsible for most of the goals conceded. With Cao Zheng's form in the AFC Champions League, it will be difficult for him to enter the Luneng first team in the future. After all, the Luneng first team has Wang Dalei, Han Rongze, Li Guanxi and other national gate-level strong reinforcements, and Cao Zheng still needs to work hard in the future to make himself among the first team and usher in the peak of his career.
