By Liu Xiangyu: Due to the extreme weather, the eighth round of the Gusu tournament has been completely postponed and was originally scheduled to take place on the evening of July 25th.

The battle with Shenhua is now postponed to August 15th. For the current state of
national security
The sudden postponement of the match is a good thing, as the team will have a few more days to rest and adjust. Next up, they will face Shanghai Harbor, a team that is also not to be underestimated, in what will be a challenging matchup.
The second stage of the tournament was revealed, and

About to face the Jinmen Tigers, Yatai two hard battles, although the strength of the opponents is not the top, but this season's

A slight lack of team strategy in dealing with an intense defense, coupled with the fact that both games are scheduled for 4:30 p.m., which is a great way to play in the heat of the day for

It certainly adds to the difficulty.
The results of the two matches confirmed that the fears of the crowd were not empty.

0-0 draw with Jinmen Tigers, 0-2 defeat against Yatai. With only one point from two rounds of matches, they have fallen out of the title race in the table. Had it not been for the hurricane that hit

The next will face the Shanghai duo consecutively, and with the current state of the team, I am afraid it will be difficult to stop the downward trend if they want to beat the strong opponents consecutively.
Three games in a row.

No goals were scored through sports, and the offensive end was in a worrying condition; facing Yatai, the team's defense line also had some problems. To summarize, the second stage started with
national security
Although the team scraped its first win against Hebei, it then suffered a significant dip in form and an overall poor performance.
This is actually consistent with the laws of soccer.
national security
The slow start and lack of technical and tactical polish shown in the first phase led to a poor performance in the early part of the league, but the team gradually found its feet as the games progressed. The break was supposed to be the perfect opportunity for Bilic to find out the problems and solve them, however, the reality is that almost all the main players under him are not in the team. In addition to the internationals who were pulled by the national team, several key foreigners were also absent for an extended period of time, the

Won on two penalty kicks, a game

The internationals were still able to top it off with their ability, but as time went on, the problems gradually became apparent.
national security
The situation is worse than people think.
Bilic said, "We haven't won the last two games and people up and down the club are not too happy with the results. The good thing is that there is nothing wrong with the way we are playing and we have created a lot of scoring chances in the two games, now we need to find ways to score goals and convert those chances into goals. Of course, we also need to improve on the defensive end to prevent unnecessary mistakes." This quote accurately summarizes
national security
The situation in the last two games. Since there is "no problem" with the style of play, the problem lies in the personnel situation.
Compared to the first phase.
national security
In the personnel of the "bones and bones", the axis of the three important players missing, Kim Min Ja is not in, Bieira is still recovering from injury, although Bakambu is still in the team, but now the performance is only 30% of his full strength. In addition.
national security
The internationals in the squad also need to get in shape. The fatigue of the internationals is not only reflected in the
national security
One on one, most teams have had this problem. It's normal for players to have ups and downs in their form, and combined with the scorching afternoon field, it all becomes an influence on the
national security
State of the art factors.
Bilic noted, "Once we fall behind, we have to risk attacking so that our opponents will have a chance if they play a defensive counterattack. If we can score first, our opponents won't have many chances." This quote reveals
national security
The issue at hand. Right now we need to make sure we have quality training. During the game, I want the players to concentrate in both penalty areas. Prevent conceding goals while competing for goals." To win games, it's all about scoring and not conceding goals, but to do that is not as easy as it sounds.
In the pre-match conference to prepare for Shenhua, Bilic purposely brought Zhang Yuning with him, hoping to inspire his form. Zhang Yuning did miss some chances in the past two games, but in the absence of Bakambu, Zhang Yuning alone has to bear a lot of pressure.

You can't pin your hopes on one person. Multiple blooms are

also have the ability to do so, perhaps all they need is another day or two of rest.
From this perspective, the postponement of the match against Shenhua is a great opportunity for the
national security
It's good news. On the one hand, the international players can make good adjustments and Bilic will have a few more days to summarize the team's style of play, and on the other hand, it will be beneficial to the recovery of Park Sung and Wang Gang. Park Sung and Wang Gang have made substitute appearances in the last two games and will soon return to the starting lineup. Both are big players on the offensive end and can at least solve the problem of the

The problem with the offense.

Next up will be a match against Seaport on July 28th. This opponent is much tougher than Shenhua.

Lost 1-3 to Harbor in the first meeting of the season. Bilic and Leko both play in the same division and usually have coffee together, but there was still face to be regained on the field. The first time Bilic lost, and in the second meeting he wanted to get back in the game.

As Bilic said, you have to score first to be sure of winning. After trying out the striker combination of Zhang Yuning and Prince Ming, Bakambu should return to the starting lineup next.
Bakambu will probably leave after this stage of the game

Sooner or later, he'll have to get used to being without him, but if he can find his form quickly, especially against both Shanghai teams again for the
