In the 20th round of the Chinese Super League, Tianjin Wei challenged Shanghai Shenhua away from home.
Shanghai Shenhua is also a veteran team in the Chinese Super League, but its performance this season has been average.
Currently ranked 10th in the Chinese Super League, they are 30 points behind Tianjin Wei in terms of points.
You have to remember that the league has only passed two-thirds of the way, and this gap is a bit too scary.
Maybe because of the away game and the fact that the AFC Champions League is approaching, Xue Yang needs to make some adjustments.
In the end, Tianjin Wei defeated Shanghai Shenhua 3-2, and Tianjin Wei continued their winning streak.
This makes Guangzhou Evergrande very worried, because there is now a huge gap between Tianjin Wei and Guangzhou Evergrande.
In the 21st round of the league, Tianjin Wei faced Shanghai SIPG at home.
Compared with last season, Shanghai SIPG's strength has improved. Herrera, the forward who was previously sold to Shanghai SIPG by Tianjin Wei, finally left Shanghai SIPG.
Herrera returned to Argentina and joined Banfield in the Argentine League.
Although his salary has dropped a lot, it is still better than before he joined Tianjin Wei.
After all, before joining Tianjin Wei, he played for Pogba in the Brazilian Second Division.
His visit to China can be regarded as an upgrade. In addition to foreign players, Shanghai SIPG's local players have also grown a lot.
After all, they are all players from Chongming Island, and they will all be potential players for the national team in the future.
For example, 22-year-old Wu Lei, 23-year-old Jun Ling, Fu Huan who will be reviled in the future, etc.
Shanghai SIPG is currently ranked 6th in the Chinese Super League, and its results are quite good.
But compared with Tianjin Wei, it is still a little worse, but in a few days Xue Yang will lead the team to Australia to prepare for the AFC Champions League.
So today Xue Yang chose to make some rotations to prepare for the AFC Champions League.
In the end, Tianjin Wei drew 2-2 with Shanghai SIPG. The result was really a pity.
At the last moment of the game, there was a chance to win the game.
Unfortunately, Yanjunling saved Zhou Zheng's shot and ended up with a draw in the away game.
Originally, this should have been a good opportunity for Guangzhou Evergrande to chase points, but they failed to seize the opportunity.
Guangzhou Evergrande's opponent is Tianjin TEDA, although Tianjin TEDA is not satisfied because Tianjin Wei surpassed Tianjin TEDA.
But today they actually defeated Guangzhou Evergrande and contributed to Tianjin Wei's re-election of the Chinese Super League championship.
As a result, after Tianjin Wei ended their winning streak, they even opened up the points gap with Guangzhou Evergrande.
It is worth mentioning that Qin Zhen scored as a substitute in this game.
Completing the feat Zhou Zheng accomplished last season, he has scored 30 goals in the league.
After this game, Tianjin Wei came to Australia.
Xue Yang did his homework before coming to face the Western Sydney Ramblers in the A-League away game.
They even sent coaches to watch the game on site and collect as much information as possible.
However, this information did not worry Xue Yang too much. To be honest, for Tianjin Wei, the Western Sydney Ramblers are really average.
In the first round, Tianjin Wei only needs a draw, and Xue Yang is confident of defeating Western Sydney Ramblers.
In the end, Tianjin Wei drew 1-1 with Western Sydney Ramblers in an away game, so the initiative was in Tianjin Wei's hands.
After returning to China, we ushered in the 22nd round of the Chinese Super League. Tianjin Wei challenged Guangzhou R&F away from home.
Guangzhou R&F has been doing well recently. After successively introducing two Tianjin Wei players, the local players have improved a lot.
Currently ranked 4th in the Chinese Super League, it is a pity that it is far behind the third-placed Jingcheng Guoan.
The points gap is 6 points. Of course, there are still 8 rounds left in the league, so there is still a chance to catch up.
Of course, they don't have to worry about this game. Although Guangzhou R&F's defensive problems have been alleviated, the opponent is Tianjin Wei after all.
In the end, Tianjin Wei defeated Guangzhou R&F 3-1 and continued to remain unbeaten.
Guangzhou R&F may have benefited from this, as they plan to once again introduce a player from Tianjin Wei.
And this player is central midfielder Ji Shang who is on loan to Sakura Osaka. Ji Shang performed very well in the J-League.
Ji Shang can play an absolute main position in any Chinese Super League team that is not Tianjin Wei.
After getting to know Ji Shang, head coach Eriksson was also very interested in Ji Shang.
He even said that if Ji Shang is introduced, Guangzhou R&F will have the strength to participate in the AFC Champions League.
A few days later it will be the second leg of the AFC Champions League quarter-finals. Tianjin Wei will face Western Sydney Ramblers at home.
In this game, Tianjin Wei came out full force and easily defeated the Western Sydney Ramblers 4-0.
The head coach of Western Sydney Ramblers, who said before the game that he would definitely win the game, was embarrassed. Tianjin Wei's strength exceeded his expectations.
Although the result was as expected by Xue Yang, successfully advancing to the AFC Champions League semi-finals still made Xue Yang very excited.
He participated in the AFC Champions League for the first time and successfully reached the AFC Champions League semi-finals.
This makes Xue Yang very proud, and his opponent in the semi-finals is FC Seoul.
Facing a K-League team again made Xue Yang full of fighting spirit.
Not only Xue Yang, the head coach, but also the coaching staff and players were very excited.
They are getting closer and closer to the top of Asia, and maybe they really have hope of winning the AFC Champions League.
Until the press conference after the game, Xue Yang was still excited.
But then a question from a Chinese reporter pulled Xue Yang out of his happy mood.
"May I ask Coach Xue Yang! What do you think of the incident where Jiang Bin, who plays for Tottenham Hotspur, refused to be called up to participate in the national team?"
This question caught Xue Yang off guard. Due to the intensive schedule recently, Xue Yang really hasn't paid attention to these news.
Xue Yang knew that in early September, the Chinese national team would play two friendly matches.
The purpose is of course to prepare for next year's Asian Cup, but neither team is strong.
They are Kuwait, ranked 111th in the world, and Jordan, ranked 56th in the world.
Jordan seems to be quite famous, but their strength is not worthy of their ranking.
Then the Chinese team announced the roster, and several players from the five major leagues abroad were all selected.
The Chinese team was going to play with all the main players. When he saw the roster, Xue Yang was very speechless.
You must know that the five major leagues have just begun, and they have been called up for the international match day in September.
Moreover, these players have just joined the new team, which is the time when they need to get used to the team.
Recruiting them at this time actually affects their preparations for the new season.
But after all, it was related to the national team competition, so Xue Yang didn't have any ideas.
But Xue Yang had never heard about Jiang Bin's refusal to be drafted, so Xue Yang was a little confused for a while.
"I'm sorry! I really haven't heard of what you said, and I have no way to answer it." Xue Yang directly refused to answer the question.
Xue Yang still knew Jiang Bin very well and knew that Jiang Bin had a hard time along the way.
He was not the kind of person who would refuse a call, so Xue Yang refused to answer directly.
However, the reporter did not give up and continued to ask Xue Yang. Of course, Xue Yang never answered the question directly.
He needed to learn more about the situation and see if he could help Jiang Bin.
Although Jiang Bin has left the team, he was ultimately trained by himself.
