In the 27th minute of the match, Vargas took a touch but missed a hat-trick of chances due to an opponent's foul, failing to penetrate deep into the heart of the penalty area. Immediately after, Ulsan HD launched a swift counter-attack, and Li Ang's careless mistake led to a red card, and SIPG instantly fell into a passive situation with ten men. As the end of the first half approached, SIPG encountered an unprecedented challenge. However, at the beginning of the second half, Coach Muscat decisively adjusted his tactics and adopted an aggressive attacking strategy, fully demonstrating his unique tactical philosophy and excellent soccer skills. Faced with 11 opponents on the field, despite the 2-0 lead of SIPG, Coach Muscat still boldly replaced the player at the back with a center forward, and the decision of this attacking maniac eventually ushered in Vargas' hat-trick. This shows that the Chinese Super League team in the AFC Champions League away victory, just rely on sneak attack is not enough, more need to show their own unique style. !

Behind this victory, apart from Vargas, another player who deserves special praise is Stanley Wong. From the F.A.C.A. Cup final to this AFC Champions League match, this seasoned veteran has maintained a high level of athleticism despite the team's shortage of personnel. ! [Stanley Wang highlights](https://www.ballti.com/UploadFiles/Sinaimg/202411/202411280134491645252083.png) He became an indispensable pillar of the team with his technical awareness and stable play at critical moments. Whether it's Wu Lei, Wang Shenchao, or Lu Wenjun, they are all valuable assets to Shanghai Harbour. The young players still have a lot to learn from these veterans in terms of detail handling.
