In the 9th round of the Chinese Super League, Shanghai Shenhua played away against Chengdu Rongcheng. Wu Jingui made an early substitution, and after two minutes off the bench, Malele equalized for Shenhua.
In the first 8 rounds of the Chinese Super League, Rongcheng scored 15 goals, tied with Yatai for the most goals, while Shenhua conceded only 4 goals, the team that conceded the fewest goals. Therefore, this battle is an out-and-out war of contradictions.
Not only that, considering the double matches and away games in one week, Wu Jingui made adjustments to the lineup and formation, taking turns to rest Teixeira, Xu Haoyang, Malai, and Yu Hanchao's four midfielders, and adjusted the formation to 532, in order to curb Rongcheng's three-board axe.
Ji Yuyang, a well-known reporter, analyzed, "Like Guoan, bet on the second half." "It's a better situation [if you can take the opportunity to counterattack and go one [on a defensive basis]."
However, in the 15th minute of the game, Romulo took a diagonal cross from the right free kick, and Liu Tao flicked his head in front of the penalty area. It was Chengdu Rongcheng's ninth goal in the first 30 minutes of the season, at least two more than the other teams.
It is worth emphasizing that Romulo has scored in the last five games, and has also participated in 10 goals this season, scoring three goals and providing seven assists, ranking first among Chinese Super League players.
After only 32 minutes of play, Wu Jingui denied his idea and replaced Peng Xinli and Zhang Wei with two foreign aides, Teixeira and Malailay.
Just one minute after coming off the bench, Cao Yunding broke the ball and sent a wonderful pass, and Malele's right-footed shot from the right side of the box calmly pushed the goal to help Shenhua equalize.
Equalising on the first touch after one minute, Malele continued his recent form. Like Jose Mourinho, Wu Jingui used this substitution to demonstrate extraordinary observation and the courage to deny himself.
