Shanghai Shenhua faced Japanese team Kawasaki Frontale in the third round of the AFC Champions League, and the game saw a turning point in just 4 minutes, as the opponent's main striker was sent off. In the 24th minute, Wang Haijian scored a goal, his first in the AFC Champions League. In the second half, Kawasaki Frontale hit the crossbar once, but Shenhua's defense remained solid. After the 70th minute, Shenhua replaced several main players and obtained a penalty kick in the 90th minute, successfully scoring and locking in the win. Finally, Shanghai Shenhua defeated the opponent 2-0, winning at home. The outstanding performance of Wang Haijian and Chen Jinyi made Shenhua's offense more three-dimensional. Kawasaki Frontale's main foreign aid took a relatively fierce tackle in the competition, but the referee's penalty was somewhat too heavy. Shenhua's replacement strategy was somewhat risky, but ultimately won. After Yu Hancho came on, he made a very impressive aerial stop and shot in the 75th minute, but unfortunately did not apply enough force, missing the scoring opportunity. After Shenhua replaced players, Kawasaki Frontale's offense also increased, creating several excellent opportunities. The game had entered the 90th minute, and Kawasaki Frontale's offense had strengthened, while Shenhua had strengthened its defense. However, in the extra time, Shenhua obtained a penalty kick and successfully scored. Shanghai Shenhua's home win delighted fans, but also exposed the team's shortcomings in replacement strategy. Shenhua was somewhat reserved in this game because they knew that winning the Chinese Super League championship was more important to them than any other achievement. After all, they knew that the AFC Champions League was not going to go far, and winning or losing was not important. Shanghai Shenhua's next game will be against another Chinese Super League team, and fans are looking forward to the team achieving better results.
