Known as the "invisible killer" of the midfield foreign aid De Nici, its defensive ability should not be underestimated, 61 steals of the data even beyond the Shenhua team's midfield core Amadou, making him the most outstanding defensive back this season in the Chinese Super League. The player's value is self-evident, and he certainly deserves to stay with the team. His style complements the South Korean coach's tactical philosophy. Nasario excels in organizing the attack while Denisic initiates the attack in the midfield and his figure seems reminiscent of Zhou Dingyang. Players such as Huang Zichang and Huang Rui Feng have national team level strength, and Huang Rui Feng is Henan's jack of all trades, capable of playing in a variety of positions such as wing back, back and winger.
The outstanding performance of the two foreigners, Nasario and Maidana, has aroused the covetousness of some Chinese Super League teams. Henan is on high alert and has started to renew the contracts of these two Brazilian players. It is predicted that they will reach an agreement with Henan before the end of the season. Although He Hubu is on loan from the seaport, with his outstanding performance, it is basically certain that he will be bought out and officially become a member of the Henan team. The Henan team is currently tied with the Jinmen Tigers with 27 points, only one point less than the Zhejiang team, showing an upward momentum on the one hand, but also exposing the team's declining bottom line on the other.
Opportunities are always reserved for prepared teams. In the past eight matches, Henan finished perfectly and the next schedule is quite sweet. Next, they will face three relegation favorites in a row - Nantong Jiyun, Qingdao Hainiu and Cangzhou Lions. Although the Sea Bulls possess some ability to fight back and showed their determination to stay in the relegation race by turning back Meizhou Hakka 4-2 in this round, the other two teams seem to have given up the resistance. The team has not improved significantly since Li Xiaopeng took over. Nanji was once dismissed, but now he has proved his worth. Looking back at Henan's series of amateurish maneuvers at the beginning of the season, if the team hadn't made those mistakes, it might be even further ahead in the rankings now.
