Zhao Mingjian has made a lot of success in his return to the field, scoring goals and assists, and seems to be sitting firmly in the center of the team. However, after a period of rest and recuperation, his stamina problems began to highlight, as the right side of the defense, he was unable to switch the defense in the attack. Guangzhou side, many young players, can continue to maintain the whole field of high-intensity running, Zhao Mingjian's defense short board is more and more obvious, no choice but to be replaced by the field. As a replacement wingback, he was only able to play half the game, but still managed to play well, effectively reducing the pressure on the defense.
Three consecutive victories were not due to luck. Dalian Imbo led the first half of the season, relying on solid defense rather than sharp offense. Zero goals conceded was almost the norm. However, in the last five rounds of China League One matches, the goal has been penetrated repeatedly, and the haze of consecutive defeats is hanging over the team. Li Guoxu is facing a tough test with the next match against Guangzhou just around the corner. With the chasing pack in high spirits and the pressure mounting on the leaders, Dalian Yingbo will have to hold on to a goal to prevent the gap from widening further.
At Guangzhou, the team, which was hovering in the mid-table five rounds ago, has morphed into a superpower, with a growing desire to pursue a breakthrough. For them, the only way to get more sponsorship support and ensure the team's survival is to be ranked in the Chinese Super League. The young players are also eager for better development space. On Dalian Yingbo's side, the veterans are getting older, their physical condition is declining, and injuries are becoming a nuisance. Zhao Mingjian and Fei Yu are playing with injuries, while Mao Weijie and Zhu Pengyu, the two new stars, are also experiencing a short bottleneck. The team needs to clarify its tactics to avoid confusion and ensure that it does not lose points at critical moments.
