On the evening of May 1, Beijing time, the 9th round of the new season of the Chinese Super League staged a focus of attention, and the defending champion Shanghai Port challenged the Qingdao Manatee with average strength.
I thought that Shanghai Port would achieve a victory, but I didn't expect Shanghai Port to achieve such a hearty, chopping melon and chopping victory. After a fierce battle of more than 90 minutes, Shanghai Port unexpectedly beat Qingdao Manatee with a score of 5:0 and won the biggest victory since the new season.
The reason why Shanghai Port was able to win a 5:0 victory in this game was naturally the local striker Wu Lei, who contributed two shots and one pass. In addition to Wu Lei, there is another person who has made great contributions, not Gustavo, who scored two goals, but Yan Junling, the goalkeeper of the national football team who has contributed many times at critical moments. In this campaign, although Qingdao Manatee did not dominate the field, but also played a wonderful counterattack many times, creating a total of 12 shots, including 6 shots on target, if it were not for Yan Junling to make many key saves, Shanghai Port may be difficult to achieve such a hearty victory. For Qingdao Manatee, perhaps the biggest headache for them is not Wu Lei's frontcourt lethality, but Yan Junling's wall of sighs of "one husband is a pass, ten thousand people can't be opened".
Interestingly, in addition to Yan Junling, the recent Chinese Super League goalkeepers ushered in a big outbreak together as if they had been discussed before the game. Shandong Luneng's Wang Dalei and Beijing Guoan's Hou Sen, like Yan Junling, ushered in a big explosion in the Chinese Super League. In the 1:0 win over Chengdu Rongcheng, Wang Dalei performed steadily and reacted quickly, becoming the last barrier of Shandong Luneng's backline. And Guoan goalkeeper Hou Sen has also performed amazingly in recent games, frequently resolving defensive crises, contributing 8 saves in two consecutive games, becoming the best goalkeeper in the last few Super League games, and the limelight is close to Wang Dalei of Shandong Luneng and Yan Junling of Shanghai Port.
With the collective outbreak of the three ace goalkeepers of the Chinese Super League, the national football coach Ivankovic can be said to have encountered happy troubles. Against the Thai men's football team in June, Ivankovic really didn't know which goalkeeper to reuse. Because these three goalkeepers are all good goalkeepers with outstanding ability, and their performance is impeccable, no matter who they choose to use in the end, they will inevitably have many regrets.
Interestingly, a few days ago, Huang Jianxiang, a famous commentator of Chinese football, also said on social platforms that Chinese goalkeepers generally lag behind in style, and they are all squatting in the door. The Football Association should break the stereotype and allow the introduction of foreign goalkeepers in order to solve the problem fundamentally. Unexpectedly, just a few days after Huang Jianxiang's words were finished, the local goalkeepers of the Chinese Super League collectively ushered in a big outbreak. Isn't this a direct slap in the face of Huang Jianxiang? With the brave performance of these three ace goalkeepers in the Chinese Super League, even if Ederson and Alisson come, it is nothing more than that. The level of players in other positions of the Chinese men's football team is indeed limited, but in the goalkeeper position, Chinese football has never lacked talented players, and there is no need to spend money on bringing in foreign goalkeepers.
