On September 17th, the first round of the AFC Elite League was rekindled, and Shanghai Shenhua defeated Pohang Steelers 4-1 in a tumultuous match. Reporter Lu Yang disclosed in his report that POSCO head coach Park Tae-ha made a deep analysis of his team's defeat and said that the Chinese Super League needs to be further polished.
post-game review
Park Tae-ha admitted that his team's formation was unbalanced after the goal was conceded, and the reason for this was that it was the first time for the three center backs to play together, which was a big mistake. It was also the first time for many of the players to play in an international arena like the AFC Champions League, and with nerves mounting, it was clear that their performance did not live up to expectations.
A look back at the past Chinese Super League
Park Tae-ha can't help but marvel at how much the Chinese Super League has improved compared to his time in charge six or seven years ago. Although Shenhua is slightly better than Yanbian Fude in terms of player strength, the overall level of the Chinese Super League has yet to climb in terms of tactical use and technology.
