-Rounds reached 275, which will be another milestone for him in Shandong Taishan.
In the 20th round of the Chinese Super League (CSL), Shandong Taishan defeated Shanghai Port 3-1 in a bye match to move into a tie with Wuhan Sanzhen at the top of the table. 20 rounds later, last year's champions Shandong Taishan have once again emerged as the biggest dark horse of the season. on November 1, Soccer Daily highlighted Shandong Taishan's captain Zheng Zheng's performance as one to be remembered for his extraordinary strength in the 90 minutes of the match. .
Zheng Zheng joined Shandong Luneng in 2008, and after two years of honing his skills, he finally made his professional debut on March 27, 2010 in a match. It was Shandong Luneng's first round match against Hangzhou Greentown in the Chinese Super League, and three days later, he played against Pohang Ironmen in the AFC Champions League, where he quickly conquered the fans with his outstanding performances in both matches. His consistency and outstanding performances made the 21-year-old youngster a stable left back for Taishan after just two games.
Reports show that Zheng Zheng has had an enviable career trajectory, becoming a starter right out of the gate without having to experience substitute appearances or ups and downs. He said, "Luneng Soccer School and Taishan Football Club gave me a stable and healthy platform that nurtured me and allowed me to play in a relaxed environment."
Now, as the captain, Zheng Zheng shoulders the responsibility of leading the team together with star player Fellaini. In fact, Zheng Zheng made the transition from left back to center back a few years ago, and he has excelled in defense for both club and national teams. However, when facing key matches, he would always return to his familiar left-back position, allowing Jadason and Shi Ke to partner at center-back, which is a major tactical adjustment for Shandong Taishan.
At the age of 33, Zheng Zheng is still in great shape and has a bright career ahead of him. Zheng Zheng will play his 275th game for Shandong Taishan in the next match, which will be another important milestone in his career.
