2021 AFC Champions League Group Stage Guangzhou Squad! As the first and only team in the Chinese Super League to win the reformed AFC Champions League, Guangzhou's roster has always attracted much attention. But this year, there is little hope. The list was filled with 30 players, but the U22 all-China class participated, including 6 U17 players. The team is not led by Cannavaro, but is led by 35-year-old technical flow coach Liu Zhiyu.
Evergrande's big list has no highlights
Previously, Shanghai Seaport announced the AFC Champions League list, which was still "acceptable". Because former international Fu Huan led by Fu Huan, Chen Wei, Du Jia, Zhang Wei, Hu Jinghang, Zhang Yi, Jia Tianzi and Wei Lai, etc. to ensure "a little" combat effectiveness. However, when it comes to Guangzhou Evergrande, many fans may not be able to name a few people, because they are all members of the U22 all-China class. One is the lack of fame, the second is the lack of experience, and the third is the limited strength. Why? Because excellent young people must have entered the first team, this lineup, obviously, is "mixed" in the AFC Champions League, there is no bright spot.
Prospects: Brewing Massacre?
Let's briefly analyze the prospects of this lineup. The opponent of the group, Japan's Osaka Sakura team is the most powerful, if the opponent is a strong attack, then this Evergrande youth team will be completely exploded! There is no doubt about it. In addition, if the Thai Thai-Hong Kong team is also a strong attack, this Guangzhou team may be difficult to resist. However, facing the Hong Kong Super League's Jiezhi team, will the Guangzhou team have a chance? After all, the opponent is also the fish belly team of the AFC Champions League.
Goal: Strive not to be at the bottom
Because the group is also the Jiezhi team of the Hong Kong Super League, this team also has a goal, that is, to strive for the group not to be at the bottom! Of course, playing in this way is also of great value to the players' exercise. It is worth mentioning that the young Guangzhou team will start to travel to Buriram, Thailand, on June 24 (next Thursday) to compete in the AFC Champions League Group J, the first of which is on June 24, 18:00 Beijing time against Osaka Sakura in Japan.
