in the first half, the qingdao west coast team's defense was quite good, causing the haigang team, which has always been aggressive in attack, to encounter a lot of trouble and few opportunities. seeing that the half was about to end in a goalless draw, captain oscar stood up. in the 42nd minute, the visiting team made a mistake in clearing the ball and the ball was passed directly to oscar's feet. he swung out of the angle and shot accurately to help the team break the deadlock. in the 52nd minute of the second half, haigang played a wonderful match. li shuai made a cross from the left, gustavo followed up with his back heel in front of the goal, and oscar directly volleyed into the net. oscar has scored 13 goals in the super league this season, setting a new personal scoring record in a super league single season.

just when everyone thought that the victory was certain, the qingdao west coast team launched a fierce counterattack, using the personal abilities of foreign players to frequently launch threatening counterattacks, and got a goal back in the 73rd minute. 10 minutes later, in almost the same way, riaskos made a strong breakthrough from the left and passed a cross. abdu, who followed up in the middle and was unguarded, formed a single shot in the penalty area. facing a huge empty goal, he pushed the ball. about to roll into the net, harbor central defender li ang chased back hard and flew to block it with his feet.

the harbor fans suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. if it weren't for li ang's "extreme rescue", the score would have become 2-2, and the game would probably have been a draw. as a result, haigang's 2-point lead over shenhua in the standings will no longer exist, and shenhua will have the upper hand. perhaps until the end of the season, the importance of li ang's clearance will truly appear, and it can even determine the ownership of the chinese super league championship this season.

after the game, the fans at the scene chanted li ang's name in unison. with shenhua chasing closely all the way, his rescue was extremely valuable. "this is the duty of the defender. no matter what, we must chase it to the end. fortunately, the ball did not cross the goal line." li ang said after the game. "the league, cup and afc champions league have been intensive recently. sometimes the coach will also adjustment, but no matter how it is adjusted, everyone will do their best for the collective.”

the qingdao west coast team showed enough resilience, and young coach shao jiayi also felt regretful after the game. "it's really heartbreaking to lose to the best team in the league. whether it's the process or the result on the field, i think the harbor team deserves this victory. it turns out that we created a lot of opportunities in the last 30 minutes, but this is the gap between strong teams and weak teams. excellent teams can seize opportunities, and we have to go back and practice again." muscat also admitted: "we originally expected that this game might not be that difficult, but considering the derby on wednesday. due to some impacts, including the consumption caused by the tight schedule, the game was not as easy as expected, and there were some mistakes, which are not our characteristics, but in the end we still won the game through the efforts of the players.”

however, compared to a planned victory, harbor fans are probably more concerned about wu lei's injury. in the 15th minute, wu lei received a pass from oscar and shot at high speed. while sprinting, he was hit in the abdomen by the opponent's defensive player. he immediately fell to the ground in pain, and then insisted on continuing the game. in the 30th minute, feng jin made a pass from the left. when wu lei was blocked in the middle, he was hit in the abdomen by the opponent's elbow again. this time he could no longer hold on and was carried directly off the field on a stretcher. during the intermission, wu lei, accompanied by his family, got into an ambulance and went to the hospital for examination.

how is wu lei's injury? muscat revealed after the game: "all i know is that he was hit in the ribs and is undergoing further examination in the hospital. there is no more information other than that."

judging from the current situation, it will be difficult for wu lei to catch up with the team's first afc champions league away game against pohang ironman in south korea, and the trip to the seaport will also be unlucky. what is even more worrying is that the national football team is about to challenge their archrival australia in the top 18 of the world cup preliminaries on october 10. without wu lei, it will be very difficult to score goals or score points.
