According to the original plan, Shandong Taishan will assemble on January 13 or 14, less than a month before the AFC Champions League knockout round "anti-Japanese". This is an urgent and challenging preparation for the team, and fans can't wait to look forward to this AFC Champions League 1/8 final match. The official website of the AFC recently announced the match time of the two legs of the 1/8 finals of the AFC Champions League. Shandong Taishan will play against Kawasaki Frontale, home and away. The first leg is scheduled for 13 February at 8 p.m. at the Jinan Olympic Sports Center, the home of Shandong Taishan, while the second leg will be held away at 7 p.m. on 20 February, when they face Kawasaki Frontale away. Taishan showed strong strength in the group stage of the AFC Champions League, successfully beating South Korean side Incheon United and Filipino side Kaya, but suffered a double defeat by Japanese side Yokohama Marinos. The battle against Kawasaki Frontale is undoubtedly a tough battle, and Taishan, who is playing at home, will surely go all out to win the first leg, while pursuing the accumulation of goal difference to lay the foundation for the second leg away game.
The lineup changes of the Tarzan team have attracted much attention. We expect them to integrate into the team's tactical system as soon as possible. At the same time, although there are still doubts about whether the back will bring in foreign aid, the Taishan team can at least build a trident in the front! In the Jinyuan football period of the Chinese Super League, the combination of Cressan, Zeka and Kazaishvili will pose a huge threat to the back line of the Chinese Super League opponents. However, the signings also bring a double-edged sword. According to a number of media reports, a series of players, including Gao Zhunyi, Bi Jinhao, Peng Xinli, and Zheng Dalun, are expected to join the Taishan team. The team has made targeted reinforcements in central defence, midfield and wings. This not only strengthens the overall strength of the team, but also makes the competition within the team more intense. Especially for Luneng academy players, opportunities may become more limited, requiring more hard work and discipline to stay competitive.
Cui Kangxi's intention for reinforcements is very clear: "Plug and play, come and fight." Bi Jinhao and Peng Xinli had a pleasant cooperation with Lao Cui during the Shenhua period, which also provided a guarantee for their instant combat ability. However, the domestic players introduced by the team are all players in their playing years, especially Gao Zhunyi and Wang Zhenao. For some young players, this means that there may be a squeeze on their chances of playing, especially in the highly competitive Super League. The team's in-house reinforcements are not only about the competition on the pitch, but also about the team's culture and leadership. Especially for the position of first captain, there is some controversy. There is an opinion that Zheng Zheng may not be able to maintain a high playing rate due to his age, Wang Dalei is affected by the limitation of his position, and Cressan is considered the most suitable candidate. On the other hand, some fans think that "Iron Warrior" Liu Yang is more in line with the image of the captain, showing tenacity and leadership.
In the challenges of the new season, the Taishan team will usher in a series of changes and adjustments. Whether it is the team's tactical system, squad configuration, or the determination of leadership, it will affect the team's performance. Fans and friends, do you think the Taishan team in the new season can make a breakthrough in the AFC Champions League? What do you think about the selection of the captain? I look forward to this tense and exciting season, the Taishan team can create a more brilliant chapter! The new lineup of the Taishan team will certainly attract widespread attention in the AFC Champions League. First of all, the additions of Zeka and Gazza have brought more of a threat to the team's attacking end. Both players are known for their excellent technical and offensive attributes and will form a formidable trident with homegrown players. In the Golden Yuan football era, the combination of Cressan, Zeka and Kazaishvili is sure to make the Chinese Super League opponents feel unprecedented pressure.
At the same time, the strengthening of the back line is also a highlight of the Taishan team's preparation for the AFC Champions League. Regardless of whether foreign reinforcements are brought in or not, the Taishan team has a strong midfield and central defensive line. The addition of Peng Xinli and Bi Jinhao has further strengthened the team's strength in midfield. Both players had excellent performances last season and will have a positive impact on both the team's attack and defence. Bi Jinhao, in particular, can play both as a central defender and as a central striker, providing the team with more tactical options. However, the fierce competition brought about by the recruitment is also a reality that the Taishan team needs to face. The addition of a number of players has made the competition within the original team even more intense. Young players need to work harder and fight for their chances. Choi Kang-hee's recruitment strategy of "plug and play, come and fight" emphasizes the players' ability to fight on the spot, which also puts pressure on the team and prompts the players to work harder.
The controversy over the captaincy has also left fans hotly discussed. Zheng Zheng, Wang Dalei, Cressan and Liu Yang all have different characteristics and experiences. Zheng Zheng is a veteran who is still highly respected for his leadership and experience, despite his likely low appearance rate. Wang Dalei is limited by his position on the field, but his leadership off the field cannot be ignored. Cressan is the offensive core of the team, while Liu Yang is deeply rooted in the hearts of fans with the image of "Iron Warrior". Each candidate has a unique charisma, and the final choice will be a joint decision between the team and the leadership. Amid the recruitment and captain selection, fans are looking forward to the new season. The Taishan team will face the challenge of Kawasaki Frontale in the AFC Champions League knockout round, and this game will be a big test for the team's new squad. Fans and friends, what kind of expectations and confidence do you have for the Taishan team in the new season? No matter what the result is, I believe that this team full of vigor and vitality will create a wonderful chapter for them in the new season. Let's look forward to it together and cheer for the Taishan team!
As the preparation for the new season of the Taishan team gradually heats up, fans are full of expectations for the tacit run-in of the team. The coaching staff will face a challenge between new signings and existing players, but it is also an opportunity to build a strong team chemistry. How the tactical system of the Taishan team will be adjusted, and how the new and old players will cooperate with each other, are the key issues in preparation. For the AFC Champions League knockout rounds, especially the showdown with Kawasaki Frontale, the Taishan team needs to find their best form in a relatively short run-in time. The home game will be an opportunity for the team to fight for goal difference, while the away game will need to show tenacity and unity to qualify for promotion. This game is not only a game for the team, but also a test of the overall strength of the team.
It is worth mentioning that the introduction of internal and external reinforcements from the Taishan team seems to have brought more depth to the team. The joining of players such as Gao Zhunyi, Bi Jinhao, and Peng Xinli has made the team have more options in different positions. This depth not only boosts competition in the starting lineup, but also provides more strategic variations in the game. However, the success of the signings will take time to test. The team needs to give the new players enough time to adapt, and the fans will be more tolerant and expect the team to gradually show its overall strength. The leader of the team will play a crucial role in this process. Whether it's a veteran captain or a new generation of leaders coming to the fore, they need to boost the morale of the whole team at key moments and lead the team to victory.
In this tense and exciting moment, the voices of the fans are even more precious. Who do you think would be the best fit to captain the new season, a seasoned veteran or a young star? Leave your thoughts and share your insights on the Tarzan team with other fans. The Taishan team is about to start a new journey in the AFC Champions League, which will be a game of unity and hard work, and it is also a bright beginning of the new lineup. It is expected that the team will find the best state in the run-in, and no matter whether it wins or loses, Taishan's heroic struggle will become an indelible memory in the hearts of fans. Come on, Tarzan!
