In the first leg of the 1 8 finals of the Asian Champions League, Shandong Taishan faced Kawasaki Frontale at home. In the first half, Erisson's penalty and Marsinho's header opened the game. In the second half, the Tarzan team launched a pressing attack, Fernando came off the bench to pull a goal back, and then goals from parents Zhaobo and Judson equalized the score again. However, in the end, Shandong Taishan lost to Kawasaki Frontale with a score of 2:3. After the game, the performance of the players on the field was rated:
Cressan was the only player in the Tarzan team who could attack with the ball in the first half, and his excellent dribbling ability played an important role in the team's attack. He also showed his ability to score from distance, but sadly, he missed two headers in the second half, causing the Tarzans to miss the chance to extend the score.
Kaza was technically delicate, and his several precise passes showed his technical prowess. On the offensive end, he has been a little less integrated with the team than Moisés, but has contributed to the team's attack overall. However, his defensive ability is not as good as Moisés' midfield coverage, making him slightly lacking in defence.
The offensive performance was remarkable, showing the ability to break inside. Especially in front of the goal before half-time, but unfortunately the excellent play of the opposing goalkeeper prevented his goal. Solid on the defensive end, with no obvious turnovers.
Wu Xinghan's performance was relatively poor, he had few effective breakthroughs in the attacking end, and he did not contribute much other than a cross to create a threat. The lack of performance on the defensive end, and the lack of supplemental and co-defensive aspects led to the team's difficulties in local defense.
Despite inadvertently resulting in a penalty, he impressed the fans with his running throughout the pitch and his defensive coverage was quite extensive. On the offensive end, he was a little hesitant to handle key balls, and on the defensive end, he failed to give full play to the defensive role of the midfielder, but his ability to fight physically is stronger than Liao's. The first half was rather dull, but in the second half, he showed more attacking prowess, delivering a number of key crosses and setting up a goal for Judson, and the overall performance was quite good. Defensively, he was okay and showed his individual quality on a number of occasions, but he also took some responsibility for the team's third goal conceded and seemed to be a bit distracted.
Defensively, he made two crucial blocks in the box and scored a second goal in attack, which was crucial for the second leg. Liu Yang has participated in too many games this season, but he can still show his ability to run on the left side, which is not easy. He threatened with a couple of crosses, notably a central Kaza outflank, which threatened the opposition defence. With the exception of one big foot error, Da Lei was quite good the rest of the time, he had nothing to do with the three goals conceded and made a number of one-on-one saves from Kawasaki Frontale. He performed very well, not only scoring a goal, but also cutting inside many times, becoming the target of Kawasaki Frontale's key defense, and even being tackled off the field. However, his performance was not good, he was completely lacking in the ability to cut forwards, and wasted two chances in the box. With Fellaini at this point, the game could have been reversed.
The substitution of Fernando and Kaza made the Tarzans' attack more threatening, and the tweak had an immediate effect. Subsequently, Shi Ke's substitute came off the bench to improve Judson's attacking efficiency and also brought the team a second goal. In the whole game, the Taishan team had a total of 20 shots on goal and kept the initiative. Choi Kang-hee's tactical adjustments have been indispensable, showing his excellent coaching skills.
