Get the ball, dribble, shoot, get blocked; then get the ball, dribble again, shoot again, get blocked again...
On the night of May 15, when Malelai, who had a 10-point attitude and effort, "copied and pasted" the scene over and over again, for the more than 27,000 Shenhua fans in the stands of the 80,000-strong stadium, in addition to sparing no effort to cheer, all they could do was to suffer in the waiting, or more accurately, they were waiting for a result they didn't even know. Or more accurately, they were waiting in agony for a result they didn't even know. After all, they had been playing with Qingdao Hainiu for 88 minutes before Jiang Shenglong put the ball into the Qingdao Hainiu's goal.
After 1,499 goals in all competitions, it seems to be a curse who can score the 1,500th goal for Shenhua, which is also a very memorable one. First, in the last round of away matches, they almost pressed their opponents and ended up with a 0-0 draw against Tianjin Jinmen Tigers. Then, in the home match with Qingdao Hainiu, they couldn't open the door of their seemingly unimpressive opponent. Even Malelai, who had the most heart to tame the "bull" last season, won the applause of the fans even though he was so anxious that he took the medicine box of the team doctor of the Sea Bulls off the field.
At least in this match between Shenhua and Hainiu, fate still favored Jiang Shenglong who performed better. He gave him the chance to face an open goal in the Manatee penalty area after he skillfully blocked an opponent's push for an open goal in front of the goal line. Jiang also managed to score with his inept left foot to earn Shenhua a crucial victory. At the same time, he wrote the name "Jiang Shenglong" on the 1,500th goal in Shenhua's history.
Jiang Shenglong had played a total of 989 minutes in the 11 matches prior to the match against the Sea Bulls, one minute less than goalkeeper Bao Yaxiong, who had maintained full-time attendance. His importance in Shenhua's defense system is self-evident. At the same time, as Shenhua's "sword guard", Jiang Shenglong, with his height and header advantage, is also an important role in the team's set-piece attacking tactics. Last season, in the home game against Henan, Jiang Shenglong was directly pushed to the center forward position, and eventually header broke the goal to help Shenhua equalize the score, his goal and the ball were selected.
Although the psychological preparation of "Manatee is not easy to deal with" has already been made, it is certain that the degree of hardship of this game has exceeded the expectations of many people. The face of Shenhua attack "firepower group" of bombardment, the sea cow in the maintenance of the defense line under the premise of stability, constantly through the individual ability of the midfield foreign aid, in the counterattack to threaten Shenhua's goal - the 14th minute of the first half, Jiang Shenglong once had a top. Luckily for him, the manatees behind him.
Despite the mistakes, Jiang Shenglong's mentality was not affected, just as he managed to block an opponent's push for an open goal in the 29th minute of the second half. "There are always mistakes on the defense, but we will make up for it. As a defender, I won't let others score easily."
In addition to do a good job of defense "job", Jiang Shenglong in the game more fans enjoy, obviously his goal in the second half of the final stage for Shenhua to open the door to victory. "It was right in that position and then I scored the ball." In Jiang Shenglong's opinion, the goal was not only due to his teammates who attracted the attention of the Manatee defense, but also to the determination of the whole team to unite and defeat their opponents: "Even in the last minute, we won't give up, we'll hold on until the last minute, because it's our home ground and we won't let others take out a minute easily." That means we have to get three goals. : Hopefully everyone will work hard in the future and move towards their goals.
