In the 9th round of the 2024 Chinese Super League, Shandong Taishan played against Nantong Zhiyun at home. The two teams were tied 1-1 in the first half, but both goals conceded came from defensive mistakes.
Before this campaign, Shandong Taishan had won two consecutive victories and was in high morale, but Judson's continued absence made fans worried, and facts have proved this.
In the first 27 minutes of the game, Nantong Zhiyun had only one shot, and it was Mata's shot from the front without any threat. In the 28th minute of the game, Wang Dalei made a big kick error. After Ye Daochi got the ball and beat Shi Ke, he faced the attacking Wang Dalei and scored with a low shot.
This is Nantong Zhiyun’s second shot in this campaign and the first shot in the penalty area. In addition to the first clean sheet against the opponent, Shandong Taishan has conceded goals in the past three games against Nantong Zhiyun.
In this season, Shandong Taishan has only kept 2 clean sheets in 9 Super League games, and has never kept a clean sheet in 4 home games, conceding a total of 7 goals.
Wang Dalei and Shi Ke made consecutive mistakes, allowing Ye Daochi to score easily. Seeing such low-level mistakes by the players, Cui Kangxi was very angry. It is worth mentioning that Shi Ke also made the same mistake against the Yokohama Marinos.
However, Nantong Zhiyun goalkeeper Xue Qinghao quickly "reciprocated". In the 33rd minute, Fernando made a diagonal pass from the right and Cresan fired from a small angle. Surprisingly, Xue Qinghao made a mistake in the save and the ball flew from his side into the net.
