In the first round of the first round of the Central League on April 25th, a "Jiangsu derby" was rekindled, with Nanjing City and Nantong Zhiyun fighting to a 1-1 draw. However, the overall performance of Nantong Zhiyun was extremely disappointing. Goalkeeper Shi Xiaodong accidentally missed a save, giving the opposing team's foreigner a good chance to score an empty goal. Although Jiang Zilei had an open goal, he failed to put the ball into the net. And the penalty kick taken by foreigner Chagas was weak and was directly solved by the opponent's goalkeeper. In the 5th minute, Shi Xiaodong's save was wrong, and Macy Pauli seized the opportunity to make the first breakthrough for Nanjing City. In the 14th minute, Nantong Zhiyun's Jiang Zilei also had an opportunity to score, but due to indecision in front of the goal, his shot was blocked by a returning defender.
In addition to the low form of local players, the performance of Nantong Zhiyun's foreigners is also worrying. In the 32nd minute, Chagas missed a good opportunity to take a single shot, teammate Huang Cong followed up to make up for the shot but was put down, the referee decided to award a penalty kick. Chagas penalty kick, speed, angle, strength are not enough, by the opposing goalkeeper easily pounced, can be called a "three no penalty kick".
Nantong Zhiyun manager Xie Hui is unhappy with Chagas' play. During the halftime break, Xie Hui expressed his dissatisfaction with Chagas in public in the dressing room. Chagas joined Nantong Zhiyun from Swiss Super League side Grasshopper Zurich this season, and Nantong fans had high hopes for him. However, judging from his debut performance, he has not been at his best.
