Shandong Taishan Team Preparation Update: Moises' Return Imminent
With two days counting down, Shandong Taishan team is about to gather and prepare for the game, however, five international players will miss the interval training. Thankfully, the return of core player Moises is expected to be quite optimistic.
Shandong Taishan team has been actively operating the return of Moises and Gerdes, of which Moises has shown extremely high motivation. Once returned, he will be the first to return home. This also explains why Moises was included in the team list during the first registration of the season, while Guedes was not selected for the time being.
Affected by the epidemic in Brazil, Moises was late to return to the team. However, during his time in Brazil, he kept an eye on the Taishan matches. In addition, Moises has been training consistently with Sporting Coimbra to maintain his fitness and athleticism and to ensure that once he returns, he will be able to quickly integrate into the game.
Recently, Sporting Coimbra announced that Moises' training is over and he will return to Shandong Taishan. Moises also took to social media to thank Club Coimbra and friends.
Reporters have confirmed from multiple sources that Moises' return is more likely, signaling that the countdown to his return may be on.
Of course, fans will need to remain cautiously optimistic until Moises finally returns to the team - after all, the uncertainty of the outbreak has made many things unpredictable.
If Moises is able to return, it will undoubtedly be a huge positive for Shandong Taishan. The team is currently performing well in the first phase of the league, with three wins and two draws in five matches, ranking first in the Guangzhou division and one of the leaders in the Chinese Super League standings, alongside Shanghai Seaport.
However, during the game, Shandong Taishan was still lacking in the offensive end, especially in the offensive organization. This led to a lack of threats near the top of the opponent's penalty area. If this problem cannot be solved effectively, Taishan's performance in the second stage may be affected.
The return of Moises will perfectly compensate for the vacancy of Taishan in the front position, he has excellent organization and scoring ability, which is significant to strengthen the team's offense. In the 2020 season, Moises appeared in 20 matches (17 starts, 3 substitutions), contributing 4 goals and 5 assists, topping the team's assists list, followed by Duan Liuyu's 3 assists.
