In the semi-finals of the FA Cup, Shanghai Port played Shanghai Shenhua at home, and was forced to draw when the first goal was scored. In the second half, Harbour continued to exert their strength, scoring two goals in a row to achieve a 3-1 lead. Malele pulled a late goal back to make it 2-3. Congratulations to Shanghai Port for reaching the FA Cup final and hitting the first FA Cup championship in team history.
This season, Shanghai Shenhua has been met 4 times, and in the Super Cup at the beginning of the year, Shanghai Port lost 0-1 to Shenhua and missed the first championship of the competition. In the Chinese Super League, there have been 2 meetings, 1 draw and 1 loss. One of the most recent encounters missed a 1-0 lead, which was reversed by Yu Hanchao's brave performance as a substitute pass. Now in the semi-finals of the FA Cup, Shanghai Port finally has the upper hand, achieving a score of 3-2 at home and securing a place in the final.
In his post-match interview, Muscat was quite calm and calm, commenting on the game: I feel very happy to qualify for the final, and thank the fans and the club for their continued support. It was a great game and we won it our way. We passed the ball up and kept controlling it. Every player on the pitch asked for the ball, wanted to attack, created a lot of chances, and we didn't blindly grab a little or two penalties.
As for Gustavo, the coach responded: Yesterday he participated in training normally, but recently he felt a little tightened in his muscles, so in order to protect the players, he was not included in the game list. However, Feng Jin, who occupied his position in this game, performed very well and has been waiting for such a starting opportunity. It can be seen that the coach has a clear mind and has his own plans.
Fans admit that the Harbour team still needs to strengthen their defense, and the performance of the back in the second half is a bit average and untenable. Shenhua had several opportunities to play more and less, but unfortunately he didn't seize it. Feng Jin, this young man is very good, I appreciate him, and I hope that my shooting skills will be perfect if I go further in the future.
