It is really too strong, I believe that in the impression of many Chinese Super League fans, they have never seen such a powerful Shanghai Shenhua. The 5th round of the Chinese Super League continued this season, Shanghai Shenhua sat at home to face Wuhan Three Towns, and after more than 90 minutes of fierce battle, finally defeated the opponent 4-1, won 5 consecutive league wins, and also won 6 consecutive wins in the season. At the same time, with the loss of Beijing Guoan in this round of the game, Shanghai Shenhua has become the only unbeaten Chinese Super League team this season, and it has done the real - Dugu seeks defeat!
Let's review Shanghai Shenhua's 6 victories so far this season: 1-0 victory over Shanghai Port in the Super Cup, 2-0 Meizhou Hakka in the first round of the Chinese Super League, 2-0 Qingdao West Coast in the second round of the Chinese Super League, 3-0 Shandong Taishan in the third round of the Chinese Super League, 2-1 Changchun Yatai in the fourth round of the Chinese Super League, and 4-1 Wuhan Three Towns in the fifth round of the Chinese Super League. A total of 14 goals have been scored in 6 games, conceding only 2 goals.
It is worth mentioning that four of the six teams that Shanghai Shenhua have beaten this season are former Chinese Super League champions, namely Changchun Yatai (2007), Shandong Taishan (2021), Wuhan Three Towns (2022) and Shanghai Port (2023).
Unbeaten in the season, with four Chinese Super League champions and five consecutive league wins at the top of the standings, Shanghai Shenhua can be said to be the best team so far this season and the best time for them to win the Super League title in the past two decades.
In the 31-year history of Shanghai Shenhua, they won the championship of the A League in 1995 and 2003, but then the championship in 2003 was deprived because of "fake gambling", so Shanghai Shenhua has only one league championship. As a traditional giant, winning only one league title is obviously not in line with Shanghai Shenhua's appetite, and they are in dire need of more accolades.
After entering the era of the Chinese Super League (2004), Shanghai Shenhua's performance has been sluggish, hovering in the middle and upper reaches of the standings most of the time, and even the top three rarely entered, and has always been the role of "accompanying the prince to study".
Although Wu Jingui led the team to win the FA Cup last season, Shanghai Shenhua fired him after learning from the pain. Obviously, Shanghai Shenhua's goal is to win the league title. Finally, after the introduction of Slutsky as the head coach, Shanghai Shenhua's strength has reached a higher level than in the past, and the performance so far this season has made the outside world jaw-dropping. It has to be said that Shanghai Shenhua is one step closer to their dream of winning the league title. The champion of the Chinese Super League, it should be Shanghai Shenhua's turn.
