The Chinese Super League is back in full swing, with Wuhan Three Town giving Guangzhou City, a team that hadn't tasted victory before, a 3-0 win in the 11th round. The newly promoted team continues to maintain its unbeaten streak since joining the league.
It is worth mentioning that the key to San Zhen's victory lies in the three foreigners who came on as substitutes in the second half. In the face of the upcoming two rounds of fierce confrontation, whether Sanzhen can keep the lead will be the ultimate test of its true strength.
In this match, Wuhan Sanzhen did not have all the foreign aid, the core of the midfield Stanciu hand in hand with the full Chinese class players to face the battle. Guangzhou City, on the other hand, relied on only one foreign player, Caldona, to support the game due to the lack of foreign players and salary arrears.
Despite having a number of international players in their ranks, San Yifei's shot hit the crossbar just two minutes into the match, and there was little to show for it after that. On the other hand, Guangzhou City's first four U21 players performed well and the two sides shook hands in the first half.
In the second half, Tri-Town wide man Davidson made an immediate impact when he came on to break the deadlock. Substitutes for Malcolm and Edmilson then came on to extend the lead again. Despite the referee failing to award a penalty, Tri-Town extended their lead thanks to this confusion.
It is worth mentioning that Wuhan Sanzhen achieved an impressive record of 9 wins and 1 draw in the first stage of the league, leading the table. However, the strength of the opponents in the first stage is relatively weak. In the next two rounds of matches, Tri-Town will welcome two strong opponents, Beijing Guoan and Henan Songshan Longmen, which will be the key to test the strength of Tri-Town.
If Sanzhen can remain undefeated in the next two rounds of matches, or even continue to win, then they may be able to recreate the "Kaiserslautern Miracle" of Guangzhou Evergrande's promotion to the Chinese Super League.
