A new round of the Chinese Super League is about to kick off, and Shandong Taishan's strong dialogue at home against Tianjin Jinmen Tigers has attracted the attention of many fans and media.
For Shandong Taishan, no matter how strong the opponent is, winning the final victory is the only goal to pursue.
First of all, this is the last of five consecutive home games for the Tarzans, and in front of their own fans, only victory is the best reward. Moreover, Choi has been stressing that if the team is to achieve the desired results, the home record is crucial.
Secondly, only by winning can we maintain pressure on Shanghai Shenhua in the standings. Although the team has come to the third place at the moment, and according to Taishan's performance, it is basically no problem to complete the top three tasks, but after all, there is only one gap from Shenhua, and if you can come to the runner-up position, why not fight for it?
Finally, sweep away the gloom of the first encounter. In the first meeting of the season, Shandong Taishan drew 3:3 away to Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, that game was extremely hot for the Taishan team, and in the final period due to Judson and Beric arguing, the two pulled each other, originally the game was over, but referee Liu Wei did not hesitate, showed Judson a red card to have returned to the locker room, and the dissuasive assistant coach Fabio also showed a red card, and the two red cards directly ignited the anger of Taishan fans.
For this reason, Judson was additionally punished by the Football Association (suspended for 5 games and fined 50,000), and the lack of defensive generals caused Shandong Taishan to have a crisis in the back line in the subsequent matches, and the results were greatly affected. Moreover, this match was also Cui Kangxi's first game in charge of Shandong Taishan, and this clumsy blowing penalty surprised Cui Kangxi and was very speechless for a while.
And this time the two teams clashed, Shandong Taishan is bound to prove itself with victory.
For Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, the recent performance can be described as unusually sluggish. Compared with the strong performance at the beginning of the season, the team has gone eight games without a win, including losing to Henan in the last round, being forced to draw by Nantong Zhiyun and Shenzhen, and missing many opportunities to score points. In the end, the team fell in the standings, from the top three at the beginning of the season, now to eighth.
This time visiting Jinan, if you want to retire at home from Taishan team, which has the highest record at home, it can be described as a difficult way for Shu, and Yu Genwei's team may continue to be unwinnable.
Before the start of this round, there is good news for Taishan fans: midfielder Li Yuanyi, who has performed well this season, and goalkeeper Wang Dalei have successfully renewed their contracts with the club. However, in the fans' messages, in addition to full of blessings, we also saw discordant voices, and many fans expressed their hope that the club would not renew Moisés' contract and hoped that he could leave after the season. In fact, such an idea is not rational, perhaps fans see that Moisés is getting older, playing a far less important role on the field than before, and even disrupting the team's smooth attack at many critical times.
But everyone must look at it rationally, Moisés's form has indeed had ups and downs, but his loyalty to the Tarzan team is unquestionable. And once Old Mo leaves, who can form such a tacit cooperation with Cressan, you must know that although Cressan is capable, most of his goals are Moisés, and our domestic players simply can't do it. Moisés is a rare foreign aid in the current Chinese Super League and an indispensable frontcourt player in Choi Kangxi's hands.
Returning to this focus game, Pato's injury affected Choi Kang-hee's formation, but it was not big. After all, the team's previous good offensive system relied on Moisés, Cressan and Fellaini, at least in the combination of the front court, there was little suspense.
However, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers are considered to be the bitter masters of Shandong Taishan, in addition to the suspension of Judson above due to disputes, in the 23rd round of last season, the conflict between Wang Dalei and Merida led to Wang Dalei being suspended by the Football Association for 4 games, and it was because of these 4 suspensions, and then Shandong Taishan's goalkeeper position had great problems, laying hidden dangers for the final loss of the championship.
In the last two encounters with Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, Shandong Taishan will pay the price of the general's suspension, so this time you should also be extra careful. After all, neither Merida nor Beric was chased by the Football Association.
And for the fans of both teams, rational watching the game comes first. In many cases, it is the unreasonable blowing of penalties by the referee that is the root cause of many contradictions on and off the field. It's like the first time the two teams have met, if referee Liu Wei can make a reasonable penalty in the first time, then there will be no subsequent disputes. Therefore, everyone should focus on the game itself, and can angrily denounce unreasonable blowing penalties, but the fans are a big theme of harmony.
In addition, in addition to this strong dialogue, there are two focus battles worth paying attention to in this round, the "Beijing-Shanghai battle" between Beijing Guoan and Shanghai Shenhua, and the direct relegation competition battle between Shenzhen team and Nantong Zhiyun, all of which have attracted extensive discussion among fans and media, and these three focus collisions have also attracted CCTV's comprehensive attention and live broadcast.
