The Chinese Super League has yet to decide the AFC first! According to a well-known domestic reporter Ma Dexing, the AFC Champions League schedule has been determined and will be played at the intensity of "three days and one match". It is worth mentioning that although many countries have applied to be "hosts", Mingji said that Guangzhou Evergrande will not accidentally go to Thailand to compete. Moreover, Evergrande may also be transferred to the "fish belly group" and will compete with Thailand Lion Harbor, Hong Kong Jiezhi Team and Osaka Sakura. What I never expected is that no matter what kind of guesses the name makes, the venue or the opponent in the group is a mystery to Guangzhou Evergrande.
name predicts Evergrande’s venues and group match opponents
The 2020 AFC Champions League has ended in a hurry, and the 2021 season will also be a mess. Previously, the AFC Champions League has carried out a new competition system and group draws, but the participating teams and venues are already a mystery. According to Ma Dexing's speculation, there are many countries willing to apply for hosting the AFC Champions League in the 2021 season, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Iraq and other countries. Moreover, Shandong Luneng’s qualifications have not been determined so far, so that the group competition competitors of Guangzhou Evergrande and Shanghai SIPG have not yet been determined.
Therefore, Guangzhou Evergrande may also change teams to compete with Thailand Lion Harbor, Hong Kong Jiezhi Team and Osaka Sakura. The schedule will also be adjusted: April 22 Guangzhou Evergrande vs. Japan Osaka Sakura (Australian Super League/Myanmar); April 25th Thailand Lion Harbor vs Guangzhou Evergrande; April 28 Guangzhou Evergrande vs Hong Kong Jiezhi ; On May 1st, Hong Kong Jiezhi Team vs. Guangzhou Evergrande; May 4th, Japan Osaka Sakura (Australian Super League/Myanmar) vs. Guangzhou Evergrande; May 7th Guangzhou Evergrande vs. Thailand Lion Harbor.
Three days a match! High-intensity confrontation, can the second team really handle it?
As the favorite to win the AFC for many consecutive seasons, Guangzhou Evergrande is likely to adjust its strategy in the 2021 season. Some domestic media once broke the news that the Chinese Super League "BIG4" is not cold about the AFC Champions League.This is determined by the safety and health of foreign countries and the time of domestic isolation. Moreover, the Chinese Super League clubs must "make way" for the Chinese men's football team. At the same time, "BIG4" has a large number of international football players, so the team will consider whether to "make a full fight." As a “big player in the national football”, Guangzhou Evergrande is very likely to send a “second team” to play in the AFC. Then the problem is that the Evergrande 2 team can really withstand the “three days of high-intensity confrontation”. One game"?
First of all, if Guangzhou Evergrande enters the "fish belly group" and is in the same group as Thailand Lion Harbor, Hong Kong Jiezhi and Osaka Sakura (Australian Super League/Myanmar), the team may easily advance.
Secondly, after Guangzhou Evergrande has undergone "renewal", young players such as Wei Shihao, Gao Zhunyi, Zhang Xiuwei have taken over, and naturalized players such as Exon, Goolat and Alan also have strong strength. Coupled with the "guarantee combination", Guangzhou Evergrande can actually form two strong teams.
In the end, participating in the AFC Champions League means "winning glory for the country". I believe that Guangzhou Evergrande will also make full plans to hit the final championship. After all, being out of the group stage in 2020 has made the team lose face and hopes to restore its dignity in the new season.
As the saying goes: "Strike iron needs to be hard by itself." Regardless of the final arena and group stage opponents, Guangzhou Evergrande should not have a chance to participate in the 2021 AFC Champions League. Even if the lineup sent is not the strongest, we must take this opportunity to "win glory for the country" seriously. Of course, Guangzhou Evergrande also needs to make all-round rectifications from players, coaches and even the management to face the invincibility of the "double crown" competition.
