In the harbour clash, the backline remained rock solid despite the midfield scenery, with Yan Junling leading the national defense in the
China Super League (soccer league)
The stage is unique. However, this defense has shortcomings in aerial defense, and has been weak in the face of high-altitude bombing teams such as Shandong. In the league, Shandong's powerful offense to the seaport a vivid lesson. In
soccer league
In the Cup final, Harbour's ability to hold off the aerial threat of Shandong will be key to winning the match. With the league loss, Harbour are left with only
soccer league
Cup a road to the title, if there is a slip-up, the team will end up with another four losses this season.
In contrast, Guangzhou's foreign aid situation this season is worrying, and the breakdown of the Pagoda combination has made the team
China Super League (soccer league)
The powerhouse is much weaker. Entering the second phase, naturalized players such as Ackerson and Luo Guofu were nowhere to be found. Veteran captain Zheng Zhi, who was appointed at the last minute, was tired of playing the dual role of captain and head coach. Luckily, Guangzhou's young players did well, with young talents such as Wei Shihao, Yang Liyu, Zhang Xiuwei and Deng Hanwen maturing, and post-00's Ling Jie and Tan Kaiyuan proving the rise of a new Guangzhou team with their goals. Despite the team's best efforts, finishing in third place is still the best result for the team's promotion to the
China Super League (soccer league)
Worst season ranking since.
Third, Guoan sinking, Yatai Shenzhen rising
In days gone by, Guoan was invincible with its attacking line of Augusto, Bieira and Bakambu, whose pleasing style of play and mercurial cooperation won many
China Super League (soccer league)
Fans. However, due to financial constraints, only one obscure striker, Anderson Silva, was left in Guoan's squad when the second phase began. It wasn't until the final round that Guoan ended a six-round winless streak with a 1-0 victory over Shenzhen, eventually finishing fifth. Thankfully, young players such as Liang Shaowen, Bo Yang and Ruan Qilong have grown up quickly this season and have become the team's hope for the future.
Before facing this season's champions Shandong Taishan in the finale, Yatai had already locked up fourth place. Even so, they still performed well against the champions and might have been able to topple this season's champions if not for Sun Jie's blown goal. The rise of Yatai this season has been inextricably linked to successful reinforcements, with the addition of former AFC Champions League and K-League top scorer Junior giving the team a boost. The 35-year-old has once again played in the
China Super League (soccer league)
proved himself on the field, not only leading Ateneo to a fourth-place finish, but also scoring 14 goals to capture the
China Super League (soccer league)
Golden Boot honors.
Another team that has emerged this season is Shenzhen. Despite losing 0-1 to Guoan in the finale, they gave up fifth place and ended up in sixth place. But even so, this is the best ranking since Shenzhen won the championship in the 2004 season. The rise of the Shenzhen team and the team in the past two years continued high investment has a direct relationship, in addition to take the king of the Jintro, three major strength of the foreign aid Caldecott, Achim Pang and Wakaso to join the team is to make the strength of the team greatly increased. But unfortunately, the Shenzhen team did not complete the set goal of entering the AFC Champions League, they still need to work hard next season.
Fourth, Hebei most sorry, Shenhua most desperate
In the finale, Hebei went 1-2 against Guangzhou City, and the team ended up bidding farewell to the season with an eighth-place finish in the
China Super League (soccer league)
League. This season has been both wonderful and bitter for Hebei. The Hebei team, which was not short of money in the previous seasons, did not meet such a good coach as Kim Jong-bu, and after meeting Kim Jong-bu, the team fell into an economic crisis. Throughout the season, the Hebei team was always accompanied by rumors of disbandment, yet they survived under heavy difficulties. In the first stage, they entered the championship group, and in the second stage, they managed to finish the whole season. For the Hebei team, which was in serious salary arrears, they were already very good.
If we say who is the most disappointing team this season, then it is Shenhua. This season, the team has introduced a number of foreign aid such as Jonic, Adrian, Dumbya, etc., and the joining of the national soccer captain Wu Xi has added wings to the team. Coupled with the original Moreno, Cao Yunding's offense, Shenhua has the strength to compete for the title. However, it is surprising that such a strong team did not enter the championship group. Such a team to fight

Group play is certainly a huge waste of investment for the team.
In the end, Shenhua accomplished the goal of "relegation" this season, but regrettably, this championship is

The winner of the group. In the second stage of the game, Shenhua could almost send two or even three sets of lineups to play the game. Due to the huge advantage in points as well as the huge disparity in strength, Shenhua eventually easily won the

This is the first time I've seen this. In this regard, the skipper Mao Yijun also said bluntly that Shenhua is still a big gap from this year's goal. The end of the season, our salon will also summarize, including the team's structure, playing style, will do a good job for the next year to assess and fully prepared.

In the final round of matches, although Dalian People beat Qingdao 4-1, but due to Tianjin Jinmen Tiger 1-0 victory over Cangzhou Lions and Chongqing Two Rivers Athletic 2-1 victory over Wuhan, finally Tianjin Jinmen Tiger and Chongqing Two Rivers Athletic succeeded in relegation, and Dalian People ranked in the penultimate place, and they will take part in a play-off match with Qingdao, who is at the bottom of the table. Dalian People will play against Chengdu Rongcheng of the Central League and Qingdao will play against Zhejiang FC of the Central League.

Chongqing, a professional team, is also strong, and with many unfavorable news of broken funds, exodus of foreigners, and injuries to their main players, they completed their relegation task with a last-minute 2-1 comeback win over the notoriously strong Wuhan team.
While the two teams of Tianjin and Chongqing continue to put on magical performances, Dalian people are completely unlucky. This season Dalian people are
China Super League (soccer league)
One of the few teams not plagued by unpaid salaries. In the
China Super League (soccer league)
In the second stage, all three foreigners, Larsen, Boateng and Danielson, returned, and they quickly gained two consecutive victories in the situation with their greatly increased strength. Just when the outside world thought that Dalian people will be easily relegated, but they lost the last few key games one after another, and the defeat to Chongqing is the loss of the whole season can not lose the game. In the end, Dalian had to go to the play-offs with Qingdao, but from the strength point of view, they still have a very high probability to beat Chengdu Rongcheng to relegate.
