Throughout the history of football, home advantage has always been regarded as one of the most important factors in victory. However, Shandong Taishan's winless record at home in the past 8 years has always been the team's heart disease. Until the 7th round of the 2024 Chinese Super League, when they defeated the Cangzhou Lions with a score of 4-1, all this seemed to have changed dramatically. The win was not just a three-point gain, it was a bold statement of confidence in the team's future.
From the point of view of the game, the victory of the Tarzan team was not accidental. At the very beginning of the game, the Tarzan team showed their offensive momentum. In particular, naturalized player Fernando was particularly impressive, not only providing two assists, but also taking a precise penalty in first-half stoppage time to give his team a big lead. Fernando's technical and tactical awareness fully reflected his core values in the game.
The first climax of the game came shortly after the opening, when Taishan's high press in the front court forced the Cangzhou Lions' defensive line to make mistakes, and Fernando received the ball and wisely penetrated the pass and directly assisted his teammate to open the scoring. In the following game, the Cangzhou Lions tried to counterattack by adjusting their tactics, but Taishan's midfield control and efficient return speed made it difficult for the opponent to find an effective breakthrough. Before half-time, Fernando again threatened in the box and eventually scored from the penalty spot to widen the gap.
In the second half of the game, although the Cangzhou Lions tried to change the situation by adjusting and scored a goal in a quick counterattack, the Taishan team still controlled the pace of the game. The Tarzan team took advantage of their playmaking advantage in midfield, creating a killing chance through wide crosses on several occasions, and finally scored another goal to seal the victory.
This game not only ended Taishan's winless home streak in captaincy, but also demonstrated the improvement of the team's overall and individual ability. The team's tactical layout, the individual performance of the players and the coach's on-the-spot command were all fully reflected in this game.
Both the Taishan team and the Cangzhou Lions need to learn lessons and experience from this game. For Taishan, how to transform the positive energy of this victory into continuous motivation for subsequent matches is the key to the next. The Cangzhou Lions, on the other hand, need to re-examine their tactical layout and player configuration, especially in terms of defensive conversion and midfield control.
For eight years, Shandong Taishan's home performance has not satisfied the fans, which has been a sore point in the hearts of the team and its supporters. However, in the 7th round of the 2024 Chinese Super League, Taishan defeated the Cangzhou Lions with a score of 4-1, which not only brought the team three valuable points, but more importantly, this victory symbolized the full recovery of the team's strength and confidence, injecting strong impetus into the coming season.
At the beginning of the game, the Taishan team showed a strong offensive, especially the performance of naturalized player Fernando. His two assists and a crucial penalty showed not only his individual technical and tactical value, but also his centrality in the team. Fernando's presence significantly boosts Tarzan's attack and control on the field.
The turning point of the game came early in the opening period, when Tarzan forced the opponent to make a mistake by pressing high and Fernando's timely pass provided the assist to break the deadlock. In the ensuing game, although the Cangzhou Lions tried to counterattack through tactical adjustments, the Taishan team's midfield control and quick return defense effectively blocked the opponent's offensive. Fernando further extended the score with a penalty at the end of the first half, which also set the tone for the second half.
Although the Cangzhou Lions rebounded at the start of the second half, the Taishan team still firmly controlled the pace of the game. The Taishan team took advantage of their advantage in midfield and extended the score again through wide crosses to seal the win. This victory not only broke the embarrassing record of no win at home for the Taishan team, but also brought a great morale boost and confidence boost to the team. This game fully demonstrated the overall strength and tactical execution of the team, and also verified the coach's on-the-spot adaptability and the effectiveness of the tactical layout.
The Tarzan team should use this victory as a new starting point to continue to strengthen the team's overall tactics and the individual skills of the players. In particular, it is necessary to deepen the role of key players such as Fernando in maintaining attack and control in midfield to ensure that the team can remain competitive in the upcoming games. At the same time, the team's youth training system should also increase investment to cultivate more outstanding local young talents, in order to maintain the competitiveness and vitality of the team in the long run.
For the Cangzhou Lions, this defeat should be an opportunity for them to reflect and adjust. Particular attention should be paid to their defensive transitions and midfield tactical execution, which have improved the team's overall performance and competitiveness through technical and tactical adjustments.
The Taishan team not only ended their winless streak in this landmark game, but more importantly, injected new vitality into the team's future development and competitive form. This victory will be the starting point of a new round of development of the team, and it also indicates that Shandong Taishan team will show stronger competitiveness in the coming season.
