"Twice flattened" seaport! 1 point is a compliment to the warriors of the Zhejiang team

Written by Zuo Rui The 2-2 draw with Shanghai Port was extremely difficult, but the ending of the draw in the rain was a joy and a blessing for Zhejiang Greentown, which was playing at home. It was the first time this season that they had picked up points against a top-five team in the league and the first time in the first 14 rounds that they had come back from a two-goal deficit. The soldiers of the Zhejiang team, with the tenacious performance of "scoring twice" goalless goals, gave the team's 800th milestone and the 33,955 spectators who set a record in the history of the Chinese Super League.

In the opening game against a strong opponent, there is no center forward, the lack of Cheng Jin's home team starters as always, the only surprise is the position of the players on the field, Wang Shiqin is not the first time to change to a wingback, but Sun Guowen appears in the midfield in the front position is very rare, Tao Qianglong has had a wonderful performance here before.

Wang Yudong, who continues to start, seems to be the only expectation, and every time he gets the ball, he can draw cheers from the home fans. But the overall performance of the Zhejiang team was not good. If it weren't for the home team's excellent goalkeeper and the help of the home goalkeeper, the game would have lost suspense in the first half. In the 17th minute, when Jiang Guangtai's header hit the post, goalkeeper Zhao Bo was completely out of position; In the 40th minute, Feng Jin's volley hit the goal frame, and Zhao Bo made up for the opponent's header. It wasn't until the 45th minute that the visitors, who had been in control, scored their first goal: Gustavo fought for the ball in the middle, attracting the siege of Liang Noheng and Lucas, but the former's header fell into the no-man's land of the penalty area and Gabriel calmly took his feet to score. 1 to 0.

In the second half, Yue Xin replaced Liang Nuoheng, and Wang Shiqin returned to the left central defender, but only 6 minutes into the opening game, Gabriel broke through the left side, got rid of Liu Haofan's entanglement and crossed the bottom line, and former Zhejiang's top scorer Leonardo pushed the ball into the far corner, 2-0. It was also a goal at the Huanglong Stadium, but the No. 45 player's green shirt has been changed to a red shirt, and there is no celebration after the goal, and no one in the home team stands cheers.

Although Wang Yudong still makes people excited every time he holds the ball, he runs many times to help defense; Although Tong Lei tried his best every time he posted defense, it was difficult to change the passive situation up and down. Next, Kaneda replaced Tong Lei with Owusu, Tao Qianglong replaced Wang Yudong, and the home team that did not give up decided to change the way and change a group of warriors to counterattack.

After the post again blocked Vital's long-range shot and Zhao Bo saved Gustavo's must-have goal again, substitute Owusu began his hard work on the wing. In the 80th minute, the Dutchman broke through on the left and successfully passed to the back post, and Tao Qianglong cushioned the ball to save one point - the former increased the number of assists to three, and the latter refreshed the number of goals to five.

In the final minute of stoppage time, Owusu made his fourth assist of the season with a low cross from the right, and Frank's header made it 2-2. Previously, the captain from Croatia had scored with a header from a corner kick in the 90th minute, but VAR intervened and ruled that the attacker had committed a foul and the goal was invalidated.

After the game, head coach Kaneda affirmed the attacking combination of Owusu and Tao Qianglong, "They are full of energy and have made an impact on the attack. The other three midfield substitutes also did their best in their respective positions: Yue Xin's left-wing attack, Zhang Jiaqi's midfield control, and Wang Jin's long pass in the backfield, all of which reflected the determination of the whole team to fight to the end. Kaneda praised Zhang Jiaqi's on-court performance, saying that although he was unable to participate in winter training systematically due to injury, "he moved me with hard training and positive attitude." ”

Being able to score 1 point from a strong opponent when two goals behind is a big breakthrough for Zhejiang Greentown. The failure to win against the opponent was a problem that Kaneda regretted and had to focus on solving next. 'But I still have to praise the players. With confidence, pride and courage, they got a point from this game and could well get it. He said.

The training potential in the interval has already paid off, and with new summer transfer signings approaching and midfield returns expected, Caneda's leeway and chances of winning the game will increase.
