0-1 defeat to Henan, 0-1 defeat to Shanghai Port, in Cui Kangxi's absence in the days, Shandong Taishan suffered two consecutive defeats, interestingly, even if the team encountered difficulties, Shandong Taishan is still firmly ranked fifth in the Super League standings, so some fans joked that Cui Kangxi still has to thank SIPG set-piece tactics, otherwise the team will be forced to draw, and who is embarrassed by the lack of whom.
Under the leadership of the assistant coach, Shandong Taishan played the game of SIPG, obviously improved a lot, at least let SIPG's offense play very uncomfortable, both teams have a good chance to be blown off by VAR, this game Shandong Taishan main attack and defense, in the first half, SIPG obviously could not find a chance.
But under the high-pressure defense, Shandong Taishan still made mistakes, SIPG set-piece tactics, Oscar passed, Wu Lei scored, even the fans knew that it was this routine, but Shandong Taishan's defenders still couldn't prevent Wu Lei. In this way, Wu Lei scored 24 goals in 22 games, and he played Shandong Taishan more than one goal in two rounds, and from here you can see the strength of Muscat's set-piece tactics.
After the game, the coach of SIPG said with satisfaction: This season's set-piece tactical drill is indeed successful, this kind of set-piece is not Shandong fans say to prevent Wu Lei, Gustavo can be done, set-piece is a shot in the ever-changing world, it is to see who, is fast, or ruthless. Previously, SIPG coach Muscat also released before the game, wishing Choi Kang-hee a speedy recovery.
Originally, according to the plan, Cui Kangxi came back in the middle of the month, but he didn't expect to return on August 6, and he should be glad that Muscat helped him, what is the problem between Cui Kangxi and Shandong Taishan management, this topic will continue, but no matter what, he lost the first game in early August, and the next game will be won.
Especially the away game against Cangzhou male lion, because the head coach happens to be Li Xiaopeng of Shandong Taishan, this season he has been difficult to win, if Cui Kangxi even his predecessor can not be defeated, his situation will be more difficult, although in the middle of the month also AFC Champions League game, but as a head coach, he attaches more importance to the match with the Henan FA Cup on August 21, only the FA Cup into the top 4, it is possible to keep the hope of winning the championship this season.
