Looking back at the last AFC Champions League match, the flankers' underline passes were a bit rough, Cressan failed to play the key node adequately, and Zecaín was absent due to injury. In the second leg, the team temporarily adjusted Jadson to the front line, although temporarily effective, but not a long-term solution. In this game, we should abandon the traditional center forward configuration and adopt a three striker formation, in order to create more cutting and breaking opportunities inside the line, and at the same time, enhance the threat of long-distance shooting in the penalty area. Jadson should only be used as a substitute defender. Hopefully, Coach Choi Kang-hee will decisively use the attacking triangle of Fernando, Kaza and Cressan in this match.
At present, the foreign scorer Fernando has been getting better and better, and his performance is eye-catching. In the previous game, he had a beautiful shot to help Shandong Taishan team complete the counterattack. Despite his injury, the recent training session in Japan showed that the injury is not serious. However, the Kawasaki Strikers will be on the lookout for him in this match, attempting to contain his offense through physical contact and fouls. Shandong Taishan's forward line has already suffered an injury to Zeca, so expect Fernando to guard his safety. After all, his role in this season is very important to the team, and after the AFC Champions League, the Chinese Super League and the AFC Cup will follow.
Another naturalized player Delgado has returned to the team, but did not make the list of the league, seems to have not been favored by Coach Choi Kang-hee, and even the suspicion of leaving the team at the end of the transfer window. In fact, Delgado's strength is far from foreign aid, and his contribution to the team is limited. Even when he was on loan to the Central League last season, he did not perform well, which is a pity.
