After beating the Cangzhou Lions at home, which has been in the limelight recently, the Taishan team reached 11 points and moved up to 6th place. In this season's Chinese Super League, due to the implementation of the 5 foreign aid policy, the strength of each team has increased greatly, and the ranking competition is fierce, and it is extremely difficult for the Taishan team to enter the top four ranks!
Currently, the top four teams in the standings are Shanghai Shenhua, Chengdu Rongcheng, Shanghai Port and Cangzhou Lions. In addition to Chengdu Rongcheng, the Taishan team has already played against each other. Among them, the home team lost 0:3 to the Shanghai Shenhua team, and the loss was convincing, and the strength and state at that time were indeed not Shenhua's opponents. Away against Harbour, it's a matter of the team's strength. With the impact of the 5 foreign aid of the harbor team, the Taishan team can't hold it even if it is stubborn. As for the match against Cangzhou, it was because the Cangzhou Lions were in poor condition, and the Taishan team was in good shape.
Next, the Taishan team will challenge Chengdu Rongcheng away from home, and this game will be difficult to play. If you win, you may have a chance to finish in the top four, but there is a good chance of a draw or a loss. Because he is also a South Korean coach, I feel that Xu Zhengyuan specializes in restraining Lao Cui, and last season the Taishan team drew 2:2 with Chengdu Rongcheng away and lost 0:1 at home. In other words, the Taishan team has not won Rongcheng so far.
Judging from the current situation, Shanghai Shenhua, Chengdu Rongcheng and Shanghai Port will occupy the top three, and the fourth place will be a very fierce competition. If the Taishan team can't adjust their condition and further strengthen, it will be extremely difficult to enter the top four.
