The 2018 season of the Chinese Super League is about to start, and before the official game begins, many teams have used the media to start psychological warfare.

FC Changchun Club also held a press conference for the new season.

The media people present at the meeting were thinking that after the passage of this month, Director Nan should be familiar with it, and it should be clear and clear, so it should be possible to say something substantial.

Unexpectedly, Nan Mingzhu is still like that, and he is basically vague about the questions of media reporters.

The only information that can be said to be more useful is that Nan Mingzhu said that it will surprise other teams, and this year's Changchun is not a soft persimmon - in fact, this content still doesn't say anything after all.

But this can be regarded as a declaration of war, media reporters can only make a fuss about this information, after all, the opening match of the FC Changchun team is the opponent of the third place last season - Shandong Taishan God Football Club, and they are still facing away games.

Shandong Taishan God is a traditional strong team in the Chinese Super League, with a stable team and a tough style of play. How will the Changchun team perform, and will they be able to play in the same form as they did against the Guangzhou Red Devils in a friendly match?

On March 4, 2018, FC Changchun Football Club's new league season officially started, and they came to Jinan Olympic Sports Center to challenge Shandong Taishan God Football Club away.

In the end, the two sides played to a 2-2 draw, and Shandong led twice, relying on the excellent performance of Turkish striker Basturhan to score two goals. The Changchun team was scored by Qiu Xing and winger Ren Xiaotian, and midfield playmaker Zhang Chenhang scored a brace with an assist.

Originally, this score was unacceptable for the Shandong team, which was aiming to win this game, and the head coach of the Shandong team, Mihajlovic, said in an interview after the game that his team had disappointed the fans.

According to Mihajlovic's pre-match analysis, the Shandong team should win by a big score in the face of the Changchun team, but they were stubbornly forced to draw by the opponent. Mihajlovic affirmed the performance of the Changchun team, believing that they have indeed changed and strengthened in the new season.

It is not only the whole Shandong team that is disappointed, but also the South Pearl that is disappointed. In the media interview after the game, Nan Mingzhu said: My players performed very well, they implemented the tactics I set very seriously, but the plan could not catch up with the rapid change, the Shandong team performed very well today, and they taught us a lesson. In fact, the team should have won this game, because the Changchun team played better than the Shandong team on the field.

Nan Mingzhu's speech shocked the reporters, as if the two teams had been reversed, the Changchun team was a strong team, and the Shandong team was the team that worked hard to force a draw. Where does this sense of superiority come from?

Although Nan Mingzhu affirmed her team at the media conference, her face changed when she returned to the Changchun team.

The Changchun team returned to Changchun directly after the game. The next day, the team did not practice, but watched the game footage for a tactical review.

"You know the characteristics of the Shandong team better than me, they play tenaciously, they are very aggressive, and they have a lot of small tricks." Nan Mingzhu summarized the characteristics of the Shandong team, "And under the high-pressure aggression of the other party, you have lost yourself a little. ”

"Look here, here, and here." Nan Mingzhu played three excerpts, which she carefully selected, and the content of these three clips is basically the same, that is, the player was violated and lost the ball, and the player was not calm after losing the ball, and the anti-robbery caused a foul.

If it weren't for Zhang Chenhang's stable play in the midfield and Qiu Xing's steady shooting, the result of this game might not have been 2:2, and Ren Xiaotian's goal can only be said to be a big factor in luck.

When it's hot these things can't be discussed at the meeting.

"I don't know how you guys feel on the pitch. But I feel bad when I watch you guys from the sidelines! Very uncomfortable! The opponent is very aggressive, and when their players move a little bigger, you forget how to play. ”

Later, Nan Mingzhu conducted a deeper analysis to help the team find out what the problem was, and separately mentioned some players and explained in detail what they should pay attention to in the game. The summary meeting lasted for more than three hours.

On March 11, 2018, FC Changchun Club challenged Jiangsu Battleship Club away.

Based on the summary of the last game, the players have changed a lot in this game, and they can face each other's scramble more positively, and they are also more calm on the court.

Jiangsu is a typical southern team with a delicate style of play and patience. Their fifth-place finish in the league last season speaks for itself.

The final result was a draw, with Jiangsu's Brazilian foreign player Martinez scoring a goal, while Changchun's side scored a beautiful free-kick by Zhang Chenhang.

Although it was another draw, Nam Mingzhu's attitude was much better because she saw the players changing. Players like Qin Song, Ren Xiaotian, and Shi Kai are all working harder. The veteran players, led by Luo Tailai, also took the game very seriously.

Soon this change affected the whole team.
