The match against Gamba Osaka is the final game of the first half of the season for Izumi City, and before that, they have five rounds of the Chinese League to play.

This can be regarded as giving the Quancheng team enough time to prepare, but the last five rounds of the Huajia League are by no means easy for the Quancheng team, because in the fifteenth round of the Huajia League, they will face the rival Qilu team in the same city!

Qilu team has not tasted defeat this season, whether it is the Chinese League or the AFC Champions League, they have not lost. The arrival of Shen Yue and the transformation of Anrun have greatly improved the strength of the Qilu team compared with last season.

Last season, Quancheng and Qilu played each other three times, and Quancheng had the advantage with two wins and one loss. Although judging from last year's record, the Quancheng team did not suffer a loss, but if you really want to talk about their own strength, the Quancheng team cannot be compared with the Qilu team.

The Qilu team has made a big move in the transfer market this year, and they have eliminated a large number of players, which even include the international players of the Chinese national team. From the perspective of the lineup, this Qilu team is not as luxurious as last year's Qilu team, but their overall combat effectiveness is stronger than last year's Qilu team.

The undefeated record is the best proof of this! In so many undefeated games of the Qilu team, in addition to An Run, Zhou Tao and Lin Heng also played a huge role, and the two of them have now completely grown into the main players of the Qilu team.

After Shen Yue returned to China, he found that in fact, the strength of young players like Zhou Tao and Lin Heng was not worse than that of those mature players, and because they were young, they were more energetic. Plus it's very obedient. is very disciplined, which makes Shen Yue attach great importance to these two young players.

Facts have also proved his vision, Zhou Tao and Lin Heng are now known as the "twin stars" of the Qilu team, and together with An Run, they form an iron triangle of the Qilu team's frontcourt attack!

This iron triangle has played quite a huge role in the Qilu team's games this season, and they have taken 75% of all Qilu team's goals and 95% of all assists!

This iron triangle is maturing day by day, and they will be the best weapon for Qilu team in the knockout stage of the AFC Champions League!

The Quancheng team will face the iron triangle of the Qilu team in this game, which is a great challenge for the Quancheng team back line led by Chen Biao.

While the Qilu team has a strong offense, they have also done a pretty good job defensively this season. In the first 14 rounds of the Chinese League, Qilu team was the team that conceded the fewest goals. To have such a result, in addition to the absolute suppression of the offense. The defensive ability of the Qilu team can also be seen.

It's not the same as using more young players on offense. The back line of the Qilu team is mostly experienced defenders. This makes the Qilu team's offense very stable, whether it is a low flat ball or a high ball, the Qilu team's defenders have good control.

How to break through the solid defense of the Qilu team is also a difficult problem for Lin Qi and other offensive players of the Quancheng team......

There isn't much time to rest. After the end of the Buriram United match. The Quancheng team did not take a holiday and directly started training for this city derby.

on this. The Springs players have no complaints. Compared to the previous Buriram United, they obviously want to beat the Qilu team in the same city!

Although the match against Buriram United was more important, that game was in the past. The Springs team also had a good performance in this game. If it weren't for their bad luck, maybe they could have won Buriram United at home.

However, the Springs team did not lose confidence and fighting spirit because of the loss.

When they face the Qilu team, they will never lack fighting spirit!

The feeling of beating Qilu last year was so good that the players wanted to experience what it was like to finish off Qilu again. At the same time, the players of the Quancheng team also want revenge, they lost to the Qilu team in the first game of the season, which caused the rookie wall after Lin Qi, and the players of the Quancheng team really want to see how Shen Yue will deal with Lin Qi who is in good shape this time.

This, in fact, is an old enemy! No matter who is strong or who is weak, both teams will give their best in this game. Nothing is more important to them than to win over their opponents.

This is also the charm of the city derby!

When it comes to the city derby, you can't fail to mention Lin Qi and An Run. These two people have been entangled since Lin Qi's debut, although there has been no communication between them, and even the two of them have not spoken a word until now, but the competition between them has always been real.

Lin Qi doesn't want to surpass An Run all the time, whether it is strength or honor, Lin Qi wants to surpass An Run in all aspects. He didn't deviate from his goal, he wanted to prove that An Run's choice was wrong, he wanted to prove that the Quancheng team could bring more to An Run than the Qilu team!

And An Run was not to be outdone, at the beginning, he didn't take Lin Qi in his eyes, but after the Asian Youth Championships, he felt the threat brought to him by Lin Qi. In the Super Cup final, the Qilu team lost to the Quancheng team, and An Run also lost to Lin Qi for the first time in that game.

Subsequently, the Qilu team also made the decision to exchange An Run for Lin Qi.

This is undoubtedly a huge blow to Anrun. Just like Lin Qi wanted to surpass An Run, An Run also wanted to get rid of Lin Qi completely, he hated that sense of threat, hated the feeling that Lin Qi had been chasing after him behind him.

Fortunately, Shen Yue gave An Run a new life, and he allowed An Run to complete the transformation from a center forward to a winger. Now An Run is at home in his new position, and his goal tally has not been affected in the slightest, but has increased compared to the same period last year.

In the scorer list of the Chinese League, An Run is also ahead of Lin Qi.

It seemed that Lin Qi could no longer really threaten An Run. Lin Qi's only chance may be a direct confrontation between the two teams, at least An Run thinks so. Lin Qi said so openly before that he wanted to surpass him, An Runcai didn't believe that Lin Qi would give up this goal......

So An Run really wants to completely suppress Lin Qi's arrogance in this game, he wants Lin Qi to see the true strength of the "Chinese Football Legend", he wants Lin Qi to understand what a huge gap there is between the two of them, and he wants Lin Qi to never surpass him!

At the same time, he also wants to make those media no longer dare to compare Lin Qi with him!

The arrogant and confident An Run seems to be back, and in the unbeaten record of half a season, An Run's self-confidence is obviously much stronger than last year.

He believed that this time Lin Qi would definitely not pose any threat to his counterpoint!

"Lin Qi, heh, at most, it is the same existence as Zhou Tao and Lin Heng, why can you compare it with me?" The egotistical An Yun is determined to shine in this game.

For this goal, he didn't even drink alcohol during the preparation time in the past few days, and of course, he didn't go to pick up girls...... (To be continued......)
