Who would have thought that the Qilu derby on the west coast of Qingdao and Shandong Taishan was actually bland, like a commonplace, and an expected passionate game turned into a microscope for the Taishan team's goal drought. This is not just a 0-0 draw, but also a realistic portrayal of the Tarzan team that they are unwilling to face.
Cressan, who has always been regarded as the soul of the team, also seems to be stuck in some kind of unsolvable cycle. In good times, he seems to be able to fight the whole world alone, but when he is not in good form, he can't even find the goal. As the saying goes, it is easy to become a hero alone, but a hero on the football field also needs the strength of a team. Cressan's situation is like the old adage: Misfortune doesn't go alone. This is not only his personal downturn, but also the embodiment of the overall tactics and tacit understanding of the Taishan team.
It has to be mentioned that Kazaishvili, his skills are undoubtedly top-notch, and small areas of getting rid of and breaking through can be eye-catching, but this also exposes the dilemma of the Tarzan team relying too much on individual players to solve problems. As the saying goes, it is better to rely on others than on yourself, and the Taishan team seems to have forgotten this truth. When the opponent surrounded these two foreign players, Tarzan's attack was like a headless fly, with no direction.
In addition, the transfer strategy of the Tarzan team also seems to be a bit short-sighted. Fans and the media originally set their eyes on the stage of the AFC Champions League, but they had to face the reality that the Taishan team could not compete for the championship at this level for the time being. The introduction of reinforcements in the summer window has become a top priority for the Taishan team. After all, without the support of a strong lineup, it is difficult to rely on the flash of two foreign players to continue to work.
Reality is the best educator. The players of the Taishan team need to re-find their position, let go of that unnecessary baggage, and perhaps, they can create some surprising results without being favored. Just like the Internet buzzword: Don't forget the original intention, you have to always. What is the original intention of the Taishan team? It is every victory, every goal, every laughter for the fans. And this, it is not just the efforts of Cressan or Kazaishvili, but the unity and struggle of the whole team.
This situation makes people wonder how the Taishan team can break this highly dependent team structure and regain the road to victory? How do you think the Taishan team should adjust its strategy and lineup in the coming season to restore its former glory? Let's talk about it!
