In this round against Shandong Luneng Taishan, Li Shuai still delivered an impressive performance. In addition to doing a good job of defending the left back, he also often inserted in front of the field to create offensive opportunities. In the 54th minute, it was Li Shuai who gave Wu Lei an assist on a cross. If Li Shuai didn't advance to the left side of the box at high speed, Wu Lei's goal wouldn't have been created. Therefore, this goal has half of Li Shuai's credit.
However, Li Shuai returned completely with blood on his hands after coming back from injury. The happiest person is not Shanghai head coach Muscat, but Ivankovic, a new coach of the national soccer team. As we all know, although Liu Yang is currently unique in the national team's left back position, he seems to be much worse than Li Shuai in terms of the balance between offense and defense. In the previous preseason, Liu Yang conceded a goal directly due to lack of defense. Li Shuai's return with blood in the Chinese Super League allowed Ivankovic to find the best candidate for the left back of the national soccer team. In this way, Liu Yang may be greatly affected in the main position of the national football team, and may even give Li.
But anyway, it's good news for the national soccer team that Li Shuai is getting better and better in the Chinese Super League. Because his burst of form has provided more options on the left side for the national soccer team and has given Ivan Kovacic a winger once again. In the match against Thailand men's soccer team in June, Li Shuai is bound to get a key promotion from Ivan, and I hope he won't let Chinese fans down.
