Observing the recent performance of the Tsimshatsui Tigers, the following major problems cannot be ignored:
First of all, the team appeared to be unable to maintain the leading mentality. After taking a two-goal lead in the first half, the players' attitude seemed to slacken, and they lacked due vigilance against Changchun Yatai's fast counterattacks, and this change in mentality directly led to the second half's defeat.
Secondly, the team's stability on the defensive end needs to be improved. Whether it was the first half or the second half, there were obvious holes in the Jinmen Tigers' defense. Especially after the substitution adjustment, the team's defense problem is more and more prominent, this unstable defense performance let the team in the game repeatedly lost good opportunities.
Furthermore, the team's creativity on the offensive end needs to be strengthened. Although Kong Panio and Wang Qiuming were outstanding in the game, the contribution of other players in the offense was relatively limited. In order to effectively break through the opponent's defense and create more scoring opportunities, the team must improve its overall offensive creativity.
In order to solve these problems, Jinmen Tigers need to make targeted improvements in the next game. Firstly, the team needs to strengthen the training of mindset adjustment to ensure that the players can still maintain a high level of alertness and concentration when they are ahead. Secondly, the team needs to improve the stability and tacit understanding of the defensive end to fill the holes in the defense. Finally, the team needs to strengthen the creativity of the offensive side of the cultivation, improve the players' sense of offense and teamwork.
Overall, the 18th round of the Chinese Super League match between Tianjin Tigers and Changchun Yatai ended in a draw, but the match exposed the current problems of Tianjin Tigers. In order to make a breakthrough in future matches, the team will need to learn from its mistakes and optimize its deficiencies in the upcoming matches.
