The battle for the Premier League title intensifies as the leaders fall in unison.
China Super League (soccer league)
Is the title about to change hands? Are the two teams losing in unison, are they intentionally being humble, or are they intentionally giving the title away?
national soccer team
Head coach Li Tie is suspected of breaking the law and is under investigation. Rumor has it that Zhang Lu has also been taken away recently, and it is feared that the shaking of Chinese soccer will continue. Does this put psychological pressure on the teams that are vying for the title? Li Tie and Zhang Lu don't seem to have anything to do with these two teams.
Turning to the
The title race is getting tougher after Wuhan Sanzhen's loss.
In the next round, they will challenge Cangzhou Lions on the road, while Shandong Taishan will face Shenzhen at home. Cangzhou Lions just won against Shandong Taishan and their morale is high. It will be more difficult for Wuhan Sanzhen to win on the road, and if they don't win, they will be at a disadvantage in the battle with Shandong Taishan.
Although the road to the championship is full of challenges, the chances are still in their own hands, so I hope Wuhan Three Towns can learn from their mistakes and give it their best shot.
The battle for the third place: Zhejiang's breakout team
Before three or four rounds, Zhejiang seemed to have no advantage in the battle for the third place. However, after this round, fans found that Zhejiang team occupied a favorable position in the battle for the third place. Currently, Zhejiang has 52 points, two points ahead of fourth-place Henan Songshan Longmen and three points ahead of Shanghai Harbor and Beijing Guoan, who have the same points.
The two and three point advantage is not solid, Henan Songshan Longmen have strong momentum, Shanghai Seaport and Beijing Guoan will not give up easily. However, Zhejiang's recent successive victories over Shanghai Seaport and Beijing Guoan are in hot form, which is a favorable condition to win the third place.
In the 26th round, Zhejiang won 2-1 against Shanghai Harbor with 10 men. Despite not having many shooting chances, the team froze and scored two goals with a lot of hard work. Shanghai Seaport had many chances on goal, but couldn't break through and suffered a third consecutive loss.
In this round, Zhejiang had another strong performance with a 2-0 win over Beijing Guoan.
In first half stoppage time, Mu Xiekui's long pass was pumped home by Evolo. Although the slow-motion camera showed the ball hitting a substitute defender, Zhejiang took the lead. Beijing Guoan had several attacking chances but failed to capitalize on them.
Zhejiang added a second goal in the 61st minute of the second half! Dong Yu went down after a pass, Yu Dabao cleared the ball and sent it back, Dong Yu laid out a kick and Frank caught the ball and spun to score. This goal is a godsend.
Beijing Guoan also scored, but both were disallowed for offside. After this game, the Zhejiang team was more energized and had more confidence to compete for the third place.
Next year's AFC Championship: is Zhejiang ready?
In addition to the AFC Cup winners, the top three finishers in this year's Chinese Super League will qualify for the 2023 AFC Champions League season. The first place goes directly to the main round, while the second and third places will play a play-off. With the current points situation, is Zhejiang ready for the AFC Champions League?
The 2022 season of the AFC Champions League was a fiasco for the Chinese Super League teams who generally used young players to compete for various reasons. Although individual players performed well, the overall growth value is not great. Changchun Yatai even chose to withdraw from the tournament, which is understandable.
So, will the situation change next year? If Zhejiang team participates, will they choose to withdraw or send young players to work out? In fact, the domestic competition should be more to lay the foundation for the international competition, but now it's the other way around. This is worth thinking about.
So far, the Zhejiang team seems to be as brave as a newborn calf. We are looking forward to such a team, which will strive for victory in every game.
No matter how hard the road ahead is, we must move forward to victory.
