In this season's Chinese Super League, Guangzhou beat Cangzhou with an overwhelming 5-2 advantage, and the team has scored 27 goals so far, which puts them at the top of the attacking power list of the Chinese Super League. Meanwhile, in the Women's Football League, Guangzhou also showed amazing firepower, winning the first three rounds of matches, scoring 14 goals without conceding a single one, and proudly topping the Women's League A standings.
In yesterday's third round matchup, Guangzhou celebrated its most glorious victory of the season, sweeping Qingdao 7-0 with two goals each from Zhang Linyan and Guo Jinhua and one each from Fan Guangting, Zhao Jingyi, and Jiang Lai. It was also the biggest score victory for Guangzhou's men's and women's teams in the new season.
In the first two rounds of the tournament, Guangzhou defeated Yunnan and Shanghai with scores of 3-0 and 4-0 respectively. In the third round against Qingdao, the team was on fire, winning 7-0, and now tops the league table with 9 points and 14 goal difference.
This is the second consecutive season for Guangzhou to play in the Women's First League, and the team's lineup still consists of all the players from the Evergrande Football Academy. Among them, captain Zhang Linyan was once a member of the women's national team, and now the 20-year-old has scored three goals in the league, ranking second in the top scorer list.
Zhang Linyan rose to prominence at the age of 17, not only being selected for the national team, but also being scouted by La Liga side Villarreal. Unfortunately, she suffered from frequent injuries in the following years, which affected her development. Despite this, many still see her as Sun Wen's successor, while she herself considers Wang Frost her idol.
We expect the "black girl" to lead Guangzhou to a successful Super League season, and at the same time, she will also seize the opportunity to return to the national team and continue to walk firmly under the pace of her idol.
