The Chinese Super League for the 2022 season has all ended. None of the four newly promoted teams were relegated. Wuhan Three Towns won the league championship. The Zhejiang team won the third place and will participate in the AFC Champions League play-offs next season. Chengdu Rongcheng ranked 5th, Meizhou Hakka ranked 9th.
Wuhan Three Towns is undoubtedly the best performer among the four newly promoted teams. They have also become the second newly promoted team to win the Chinese Super League championship after Guangzhou Evergrande in 2011. The three towns of Wuhan are equipped with 5 foreign players, including Wallace, Stanciu, Edmilson, Davidson and Malcom . The luxurious foreign aid team is one of the important weapons for them to win the championship. Especially Malcon, he scored 27 goals in 26 appearances and his scoring efficiency is very high.
The Zhejiang team’s performance also exceeded people’s expectations. They achieved a record of 18 wins, 11 draws and 5 losses in 34 rounds, and won the third place in the 2022 Chinese Super League. The Zhejiang team has five foreign players, including Musiekui, Evolo, Matthews, Frank and Posinoro. Among them, Musiekui scored 18 goals, Evolo scored 10 goals, and Frank scored 13 goals. The outstanding performance of these three foreign players on the offensive end ensured the Zhejiang team's offensive firepower.
Chengdu Chengdu’s record is the same as that of Zhejiang team, both with 18 wins, 11 draws and 5 losses. At the beginning of the season, Chengdu Chengdu was questioned because of its long-term winlessness, but then they quickly adapted to the rhythm of Chinese Super League . The Chengdu Chengdu team has five foreign players, including Felipe, Saldanha, Romulo , Jin Miaoyou and Richard. Compared with the foreign aid from Wuhan Three Towns and Zhejiang Team, the foreign aid from Chengdu Chengdu is obviously slightly inferior. As forwards, Felipe and Saldanha did not score more than 10 goals, and the foreign aid Romulo who scored the most goals only scored 12 goals.
Meizhou Hakka ranked lowest among the four newly promoted teams, with a record of 14 wins, 7 draws and 13 losses. Meizhou Hakka has five foreign players, including Vukanovic, , Giessen, Rodrigo, Kosovic and Dugalic. The quality of Meizhou Hakka's foreign aid is similar to that of Chengdu Chengdu. Vukanović, who scored the most goals, only scored 9 goals. This is why they are ranked in the middle of the Chinese Super League.
Looking at the personnel and performance of the four newly promoted teams, it is not difficult to find that they are all equipped with 5 foreign players, which is considered luxurious in terms of the Chinese Super League, which is now full of salary arrears. Today's Chinese Super League, as long as there are five foreign players, other domestic players will not be too far apart, and the final ranking will not be too bad. In fact, the strong performance of the newly promoted teams also reflects the overall decline in the level of the Chinese Super League.
