AFC Champions LeagueAfter the final round of the group stage,TarzanwithJeonbuk HyundaiBe the last two teams to make the cut. In the match of Group G,TarzanThe team suffered a heavy defeat of 0-3Yokohama sailorsHowever, due to the victory over Incheon United, the two teams tied for the top spot in the group with 12 points and successfully advanced. And in the match of Group F,Jeonbuk HyundaiThe team narrowly defeated Bangkok United and advanced to the round of 16 with a score of 3-2.
TarzanThe team has faced the departure of two key players this season, and the impact on the team cannot be ignored. If you canFellainiwithMoySeth remained in the team until early next year, then in the FA Cup andAFC Champions Leagueof the game,TarzanThere will not be such a difficult situation. AlthoughYokohama sailorsThey were strong, but judging by the performance of the game in the first half, they did not have too much attacking ability. If it weren't for the injury troubles,TarzanThe team will not concede three goals either. And under the performance of Cressan,TarzanThe team created a couple of counter-attacking opportunities, but unfortunately they didn't take advantage of them. If Cressan can getFellainiwithMoySeth's support to Yokohama's offensive efficiency in the first halfTarzanI'm afraid the lead has already been achieved.
Choi Kang-heeThe anxious look on the field showed whether he was confident or conservative. In fact,TarzanThere is no shortage of players who can be put on the pitch, such as Abdou Suli, who has been a great help in terms of organisation, and there are many players in the full-back line, even if Ji Xiang is not in good form, there are Sun Guowen and Zhang Chi who can play a role. These two people are not as good as the current Song LongheLi Hailong, also stronger than them. And Liu Yang is also on the bench, and Fernando can start at all. Choi Kang-heePreviously, a fixed lineup had been used to deal with the first half of the game, and then the second half was replaced and counterattacked. The problem, however, isTarzanThe defense line was simply unable to withstand the runner-up of the JFLYokohama sailorsThe offense, the Yokohama team in the last game dispatched five foreign aids, whileTarzanThere are only two. TarzanThere was a problem with the selection of players to start the teamChoi Kang-heesaw this, otherwise Chen Pu and others would not have been replaced in the second half. But the substitution was too late, fortunatelyYokohama sailorsChoosing to stop the offense, kept what they neededGoal differenceAfter that, he tacitly replaced the foreign aid. Otherwise, it's really possible to beTarzanKicked to third place in the group. Facing a Japanese team,TarzanShould always give it their all. The Japanese team can attack when they have foreign reinforcements, they are not afraid to defend, and after Fernando comes on the field,TarzanThe gradual threat to the Yokohama goal is enough to prove how failed the conservative choice was. From start to finish, the attitude of some players is not up to standard, and if you continue to play like this, even if you qualify, it will be useless.

If you can keep itFellainiwithMoySeth until early next year,Shandong TaishanIn the FA Cup andAFC Champions LeagueThe performance in the group stage could have been better. AlthoughYokohama sailorsVery strong, but judging by the performance in the first half, they didn't have much attacking ability.

In addition,Shandong TaishanUnder Cressan's creation, several counter-attacking opportunities were created, but unfortunately they could not be grasped. If Cressan can getFellainiwithMoySeth's support, with the efficiency of the first half,Shandong TaishanPerhaps the lead has already been achieved.
In the game,Choi Kang-hee's anxious look suggests whether he is confident or too conservative. In fact,Shandong TaishanThere is no shortage of players who can be used, such as Abdou Rousuli who is very helpful in terms of organisation, while there are also many options in the full-back position, and even if Ji Xiang is not in good form, Sun Guowen and Zhang Chi can still make a difference. These two people are not as good as the current Song LongheLi Hailong, but also stronger than them. Liu Yang was also on the bench, and Fernando was fully ready to start.

Otherwise,Shandong TaishanThere is a good chance of being kicked out of the third place in the group. Facing a Japanese team,Shandong TaishanShould always give it their all. Japanese teams can attack when they have foreign reinforcements, and they are not afraid to defend. After Fernando came on the field,Shandong TaishanGraduallyYokohama sailorsThe goal poses a threat, which is enough to prove how failed the conservative choice is. Overall, some players have a bad attitude in the game, and if they continue to play like this, even if they advance, it is meaningless.
