The 1-0 defeat to the Yokohama Mariners set off to a black start to their first home game of the new AFC Champions League season, but the team's performance in the second half gave fans some hope. The Tarzans have finally finished their 15-day, five-game Devil's schedule, and the team will have a short vacation.
In this match against the Yokohama Mariners, the Tarzan team was completely suppressed by the opponent in the first half, especially in the last 15 minutes, the rhythm was completely mastered by the opponent, and they could only be tired of defense, and the opponent also used this time to score, and the Tarzan team was 0-1 down at halftime. Whether it is possession or the number of shots on goal, the Taishan team is far behind their opponents.
In the first half, Choi Kangxi did not admit it, and in the second half, through successive substitutions, the situation on the field was changed, and the scene also improved significantly, but Cressan's two shots were ruthlessly rejected by the goalpost, and finally regretted to lose, this game, luck is not on the side of the Taishan team. After the game, Choi Kang-hee also expressed regret, saying that the first half did not advance as planned, which made us very passive, which was the main reason for the loss.
For Cressan's two hits on the post in the second half, Choi Kang-hee also expressed his opinion, strength reasons and luck reasons, in competitive sports to have luck requires strength, we really did not do enough in the details, and luck is not on our side.
Before the game, Choi Kangxi talked about the complete difference between the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League, and Choi Kangxi reiterated this after the game, saying that unlike the Chinese Super League team, the opponent's style is very different, the short pass attack of the Japanese team's midfield is very well organized, we are relatively unfamiliar, and the response is a little rusty, so there are some problems.
The first 1-0 home defeat in the AFC Champions League saw Taishan drop to third in the group, but the team's comeback in the second half also gave fans hope. Next, Taisan will face Incheon United, who have won both of the previous two games, back-to-back, and there is no room for loss in these two games.
After 15 days and five games of the Devils' schedule, the Chinese Super League has entered a lull, and the next game is against Changchun Yatai on October 20, and Taishan will also usher in a short holiday. Of course, for the three international footballers Wang Dalei, Chen Pu and Liu Yang, they still can't rest and are about to report to the national team.
