It can be expected that at the Jinan Olympic Sports Center on the evening of April 9 , the home fans will cheer for the Henan fans who have come from afar as they did before. However, even though the two teams have a deep friendship, now is the time when they have to fight hard.
The Henan team, which has undergone a major change of management this season, has been winless in four rounds. Cui Kangxi's fellow teammate Nan Jiyi has vaguely heard the fans shouting "get out of class is over". As for the Taishan team, although they got a breather by defeating Qingdao Hainiu in the last round, the team is currently facing difficulties.

[Taishan Team]
The central defender alarm sounded
Cui Kangxi was in a helpless predicament
This game is the second game of the "April Journey" for the Taishan team. If they can win at home, they are expected to improve their morale before playing against Shanghai Haigang in the next round. , fully prepared to cling to the first group position in the standings. On the contrary, if the horse stumbles, the gap between the Taishan team and the points-leading team will become wider and wider, and the focus battle with Shanghai Harbor will also be in a disadvantageous position. Therefore, the Taishan team's only goal for "Date with Luyu" is to win.
"Every home game is extremely important. We failed to win the last home game, so we left a lot of regrets for the fans. This time, both the players and I will do our best to play this game well and try to win." Cui Kangxi said at the pre-match press conference. In the last home loss to Shanghai Shenhua, he made a rare apology to the fans on behalf of the team. Now back on a familiar venue, the Korean coach does not want to continue to disappoint the fans.
However, the Taishan team is still not out of the woods. In terms of lineup, the team's injury list continues to expand. Cui Kangxi said that Bi Jinhao and Pato, who were injured in the last round, will have some problems when they appear in this game. Although Judson has maintained training recently, the training volume is still insufficient. In this context, the Taishan team's central defender alarm has sounded. Judging from the current situation, Zhao Jianfei, who performed hard in the last round, will still get many opportunities in recent games. This is also an important stage for him to compete for playing time. Cui Kangxi has considered taking the risk of using Judson, but how the Brazilian central defender's playing time is allocated still needs to be carefully studied.
In addition, Wang Dalei, who did not go with the team in the last Qilu Derby, missed the last practice. The Taishan team's goal in this campaign may still be guarded by Liu Shibo. Fortunately, Micro Motion Wings, who has been in the suspension period before, can finally play. This game is expected to be his first appearance in the Chinese Super League this season. With the "inventory" of full-backs also in short supply, his comeback can reduce the pressure on the team.
On the offensive end, Cresan has performed poorly in the last two rounds. Not only did he not score a goal, he also had problems with being too stick to the ball and being too emotional on the court. In this regard, Cui Kangxi was also a little helpless, "The fans have noticed that there are indeed some problems, but he himself is also anxious to win, so some situations occurred on the court. We will communicate more in the next games and try our best to To change this situation, especially in this game, try to make him change and play more concisely. "
In addition to the damage to the lineup, Cui Kangxi has other problems, and this will inevitably affect the players' mentality. Make an impact. "The team is in a very difficult situation right now. I have also communicated with the players and tried to make everyone feel better mentally, but this effect is still limited after all." He said.
Even so, the Taishan team, which is facing internal and external troubles, still has no shortage of fans. On the evening of the 9th, when the battle flag flies again, they will still fight for the glory of this city, no matter who is standing on the court.
[Henan Team]
One win in four rounds is hard to come by
There is not much time left for Nanjing
Before the start of the season, few people would regard the Henan team as a relegation team. In terms of management, Li Weifeng serves as the team's general manager.Since then, Nan Ki-il, who has been in the K-League for many years, became the team coach. In the transfer market, Henan team signed Achim Peng, Xu Haofeng and other players. In terms of operations, they are also one of the few Chinese Super League teams with sponsors.
However, reality quickly defeated the original beautiful vision. In the first two rounds of the league, the Henan team drew with Qingdao West Coast and Meizhou Hakka respectively. In the past two rounds, they lost to Shanghai Haigang and Shenzhen Xinpeng City. In the four games, Meizhou Hakka and Shenzhen Xinpengcheng were both candidates for relegation. From this perspective, the originally ambitious Henan team should now focus on competing for every point.
"Actually, I have put out all the training content in the recent games, but I may not have won due to some factors. Therefore, the recent training focuses on seizing opportunities and other aspects. I hope this game can achieve good results." At the pre-match press conference, Nan Jiyi said this.
lost to Shenzhen Xinpengcheng at home in the last round. Nanjiyi has already heard the "dismissal" from the home fans. Now, he will perform the "Korean Derby" with Cui Kangxi on the coaching bench. Only by defeating his senior can he temporarily escape the predicament. In fact, from the perspective of competition ability, the Henan team is still an opponent worthy of attention. The reason why they have not won in the past four rounds is mostly due to their own mistakes, of which goalkeeper Xu Jiamin has to bear part of the responsibility.
Therefore, for the Taishan team, there is no capital to underestimate the opponent in this campaign. Correcting the mentality and fighting hard is the only way to win respect and the future.
