At 18:00 Beijing time on December 29, the 20th round of the Chinese Super League will usher in a strong dialogue, beijing Guoan against the Chinese Super League champion Shandong Taishan. After entering the championship group, Guoan because of the opening of the reconstruction mode, Augusto, Vieira, Fernando, Jin Weiya, Bakambu have all left the team, the strength of the team plummeted, relying on a group of international players to carry the team forward, this stage 1-0 win over Guangzhou team, has been 4 consecutive games without 1 draw 3 losses, once 0-5 defeat to Guangzhou City.
However, playing Shandong Taishan, Guoan is still very tenacious, the first leg to play Taishan team took the lead, and did not lose until the final stage of the game, Taishan team with Sun Zhunhao in the 79th minute of the game world wave and Jia Desong in the 90 + 1 minute of the game to break the goal, and finally difficult to achieve a 2-1 kill. In this showdown, the Taishan team has won the championship three rounds in advance, and may carry out a large rotation, which means that the game between the two teams may be more glued than the first leg.
Before the game, Beijing Guoan's starting left-back is also the popular international Li Lei confirmed that he will usher in a farewell battle, he has officially confirmed the stay in The Ocean, and joined the Swiss giant Zurich Grasshopper in Europe, planning to fly to Zurich, Switzerland on January 4, 2022 Beijing time. Last night, Li Lei completed the connection in a related program in Beijing, and he publicly confirmed his travel plans, personally admitting that he would leave for Europe on January 4.
In an online interview, Li Lei said: "I just got my visa yesterday, and the new contract will start on January 4, so I will fly from Shanghai to Switzerland on January 4. Tomorrow's game may be my last game in Guoan. After 7 years in Guoan, probably the longest in my career, many of my teammates came to encourage me, saying that I had taken a step that they did not dare to take. ”
In the past 7 years, Li Lei has played 140 games for Beijing Guoan, scored 4 goals and assisted 13 times, created 17 goals alone, and was promoted to a popular left-back in the national football team, but Li Lei still has regrets about his experience in Guoan, bluntly saying that it is a pity that the Chinese Super League has won 0 championships in 7 years, he hopes that there will be opportunities in the future, and thanked the Beijing fans for their support and tolerance. When it comes to his own strength, Li Lei is very self-aware, emphasizing that he is not as good as the 5 major leagues, and accepts the reality to go to the non-mainstream league to see it.
For the grasshopper club, Li Lei also has an early understanding, he watched some grasshopper games, although not the mainstream European league, but the pace of the game is still particularly fast, so Li Lei believes that his physical functions need to be adjusted. Li Lei's pragmatic attitude of staying in the West will make him more stable in Europe, and the top management of the Grasshopper Club also has confidence in Li Lei, believing that his strength is in line with the standards of the Swiss Super. I hope that Li Lei can also play a good role in the farewell battle of Guoan!
