Good News! A new foreign defensive midfielder has joined Beijing Guoan, bolstering their attacking line and making them serious contenders for the Chinese Super League (CSL) championship. The excitement is palpable as Beijing Guoan fans celebrate the arrival of a new powerhouse in their midfield. The team has been eagerly anticipating reinforcements since the departure of Li Ke, leaving a noticeable gap in their defensive midfield. However, with the winter transfer window open, Guoan has made a significant move by securing the services of Da Wan, a player who has already arrived in Haikou and is awaiting an official announcement. Da Wan's reputation precedes him, having made a significant impact in Japan's J-League with Gamba Osaka. Over three seasons, he has played more than a hundred matches, scoring over ten goals, and his efficiency on the field is impressive. In the recently concluded 2024 season, he was instrumental in the team's success, averaging high numbers in tackles, interceptions, and ball recoveries. His defensive prowess is rock-solid, and he also contributes to the attack, earning him a place among the top ten players in the league in terms of average rating. He is known as the "midfield brain" of Gamba Osaka. What stands out even more is Da Wan's impeccable disciplinary record, having not received a single red card in three seasons. His clean and professional approach to the game promises to significantly enhance Guoan's midfield strength and interception capabilities. With such a formidable presence in front of the defense, fans can rest assured that their team is well-protected. The good…

Beijing Guoan defeated Shandong Taishan U18 with a 4-0 victory in a friendly match, playing with 10 against 11. The final result of the match between Beijing Guoan and Shandong Taishan U18 was a resounding 4-0 victory for Beijing Guoan, as evidenced by the scoreline alone, indicating an exciting and satisfying game. Essentially, it was like adults playing with children, but as the game progressed, Beijing Guoan did not hold back, using their strength to teach the opposition a harsh lesson. The match started with an interesting arrangement from Beijing Guoan, who played with 10 men against 11, possibly as an extra incentive for the young players, considering that the opponents were Shandong Taishan U18, a team of young and inexperienced players. These 10 players managed to deliver a four-goal blow to the 11, demonstrating both politeness and precision. The first goal came in the 15th minute when Cao Yongjing of Beijing Guoan made an extremely accurate pass directly to Wang Ziming, who had made a forward run. Wang Ziming did not hesitate and steadily pushed the ball into the net. Observing this coordination, it was clear that they had honed their skills to perfection. Some post-match comments praised Cao Yongjing's pass as if it had eyes, and Wang Ziming's shot as being clean and decisive. The score became 1-0, with Guoan taking the lead. By the 60th minute, Jiang Wenhao once again demonstrated his assisting prowess. This time it was Yan Yu, who received a pass from his teammate and easily scored with a push shot, making it 2-0,…

Back then, he played for Beijing Guoan and helped the team win the Super League championship in the 09 season, which was quite impressive. In every match, his fighting spirit on the field made all the fans proud. However, this young man's dream of playing abroad did not come true.

Translation: In this work, the author will use a comprehensive scoring method to analyze which of the four major teams in the CSL season 25 - Shanghai Port, Shanghai Shenhua, Beijing Guoan, and Chengdu Rongcheng - is closer to the championship. Shanghai Port Coach Muscat was the best coach in the CSL season 24, leading the team to break records such as the longest winning streak, most goals scored, and most goal difference in his first season, showing a high level of coaching. Score 9 points. The local main lineup of the Port is based on the "Six Tigers of Chongming," with enough match experience, but age is a hidden danger. As the schedule progresses, the drawbacks of the local lineup may gradually emerge. Score 7 points. Don't forget that Wu Lei will be absent for 2 months due to injury. In terms of foreign aid, no matter how the Port recruits, it is difficult to find a substitute for Oscar and Bargas. Score 7 points. Comprehensive assessment, the Port's championship-winning strength in the new season is 7.6 points. Shanghai Shenhua Coach Slutsky seems to have led the team to ideal results and excellent coaching skills, but in reality, there are some shortcomings. In the CSL season 24, good luck masked some of his coaching issues. Score 7 points. The local lineup of Shenhua is luxurious, with national-level players filling the front, midfield, and backline, and even the substitutes could form a starting lineup better than some lower-tier CSL teams. Score 10 points. In terms of foreign aid, Shenhua has…

Beijing Guoan Wins Two Consecutive Warm-up Matches, Can You See That Setien Is More Advanced Than Suarez? Hey, fellow Beijing fans, today we're going to talk about our Beijing Guoan! The 2025 season hasn't officially started yet, but Guoan has already given us a great start with two consecutive victories in the warm-up matches. It's so exciting! They won the first match 2-0 against Changchun Yatai and the second match 4-2 against Chongqing from the China League One. In total, they scored six goals, which made me feel so passionate and happy! Now, many fans are starting to wonder: Is Setien better than the previous coach, Suarez? Let's discuss this. Honestly, Setien, this coach, has a deep understanding of controlling football. His philosophy of pressing and surrounding after mistakes is very fast, whether it's one-on-one or multiple players working together. This is just like the high-pressure tactics of Barcelona back then! He values ball control and pressing more than anything else. And considering his background as an international chess master, how could his IQ be low? This coach is not simple! Guoan has invested heavily in bringing in Setien. Once the national team players return, his concept of controlling football will surely take root in Guoan. Last season, Guoan lost too many points against weaker teams, losing twice to Shenzhen Xinpengcheng and even falling to Changchun Yatai away from home. At that time, Suarez was jokingly called "Song Jiang, the Timely Rain of the Chinese Super League," and now it seems there's some truth to that. Suarez's regional defense was…

With the opening of the winter transfer window, teams in the Chinese Super League (CSL) are strengthening their squads for the new season. Beijing Guoan, with its lofty ambitions, is no exception. Recently, domestic media brought exciting news to Beijing Guoan fans. It is reported that the previously rumored foreign midfielder, Dawan, has successfully arrived in Haikou and appeared at the Mission Hills Hotel where Guoan is staying. This news undoubtedly thrilled the fans, as it means that this powerful midfielder joining Beijing Guoan is only a matter of time. Since Li Ke's departure, Guoan's midfield has been somewhat stretched. Veteran Chi Zhongguo, though experienced, is getting older and cannot hold up this key position alone. Therefore, reinforcing the midfield and finding a strong midfielder to replace Li Ke and complement Chi Zhongguo became an urgent issue for Guoan during this winter window. The arrival of Dawa provides the best solution to this problem. Dawa previously played for Gamba Osaka in Japan's J-League. Over the past three seasons, he has made 114 appearances, scoring 14 goals, showing stable and efficient performance. In the recently concluded 2024 season, Dawa reached the peak of his career. He averaged 2.2 clearances, 0.8 interceptions, 1.3 tackles, and 3.9 recoveries per game, which are undoubtedly top-level defensive statistics in the CSL. More importantly, while maintaining high-efficiency defense, Dawa also demonstrated excellent offensive capabilities, with an average rating of 7.04, ranking ninth among all J-League midfielders, making him the core of Gamba Osaka's midfield. It is worth noting that in the past three seasons, Dawa has…

On January 21st, Beijing time, the latest situation of the Chinese Super League friendly match. Dalian Yibo made a comeback from 2 goals down to defeat Beijing Guoan 3-2, with Malele scoring his first goal and assist in his debut; Shanghai Shenhua defeated Qingdao West Coast 4-1, winning their second consecutive friendly match victory. Beijing Guoan faced newly promoted team Dalian Yibo in this match. In previous friendly matches, Guoan achieved two consecutive victories, while Dalian Yibo had one win and one loss. In terms of starting lineup, Guoan fielded all four foreign players: Guga, Dawan, Serginho, and Fabio, while Dalian Yibo only had Kalanga as a single foreign player in the starting lineup. After the opening whistle, Fabio scored a solo goal to help Guoan break the deadlock on the field, followed by Nabi Jiang's cross causing an own goal for Dalian Yibo. With only one foreign player, Dalian Yibo created few opportunities, and Kalanga missed a clear chance with a wild shot, leaving Guoan leading 2-0 at halftime. In the second half, both teams made substitutions. Guoan withdrew their starting foreign players, with Lin Liangming, Yang Liyu, Zhang Xizhe, and others forming the midfield and forward combination, and Engadu taking the field. New signings Malele and Mamadou of Dalian Yibo also made their debuts. Malele, making his debut, showed excellent form with a pass and a shot that helped Dalian Yibo level the score. In the closing stages, new signing Liu Yi scored another goal, and Dalian Yibo staged a remarkable comeback from two goals down to win…

Recently, Beijing Guoan started to make bold changes in their formation during a friendly match and even had the veteran Wang Gang play as a center-back. This move did not surprise many Guoan fans, as they are familiar with the club's tendency to convert forwards into center-backs. Previously, Xu Yunlong made a successful transition from forward to center-back, and later Yu Dabao and Zhang Chengdong also switched to playing as center-backs towards the end of their careers. Therefore, Guoan fans were not particularly surprised when new coach Setien transformed Wang Gang into a center-back. However, Wang Gang's performance as a center-back has been average, with frequent positional errors appearing in recent friendly matches. In the friendly match against Dalian Yingbo, Wang Gang's defense was repeatedly breached by the opponent's new forward Malele. After 90 minutes of intense battle, Guoan narrowly lost 2-3 to their opponents. The only highlight of this friendly match was the impressive performance of new signing Dawan. Although Dawan has not yet been officially announced as joining Guoan, he has already taken the field wearing the team's jersey. Dawan immediately made an impressive debut by providing a precise assist, finding center-forward Fabio. Fabio did not disappoint Dawan's good intentions and turned the pass into a goal. Dawan scored in his first appearance for Guoan in the friendly match, which made many Guoan fans believe that bringing him to the team was the right decision. Dawan previously had a remarkable record of continuous goals in the Japanese league, becoming the core player of Gamba Osaka. Later, his outstanding…

With the official announcement of Liao Jintao's joining and Ali Mi's arrival, Dalian Yingbo's recruitment is basically nearing completion, and there will not be any more major signings. The team will end the winter training phase in Haikou this week and start the final preparations after the holiday. At 15:30 on January 21, Dalian Yingbo welcomed their third friendly match in Haikou against Beijing Guoan. In the previous two matches, they won 2-1 against Tongliang Long and lost 0-2 to Shanghai Shenhua. Facing the rhythm of the Chinese Super League level, Dalian Yingbo's players still need to adapt. Guoan almost sent out all their main players, making some adjustments to the starting lineup after several national team players returned. Setien also understands "human relations," with Zhang Yuning and Abreu starting as dual center forwards, trying to coexist. New foreign aid Dawan partnered with Guga, and Serginho played. Dalian Yingbo started with a single foreign aid for the second consecutive game, with the goalkeeper changed to Huang Zihao, Xiao Wen, Yang Mingrui, Song Yue, etc., starting consecutively. Malele, Mamadou, and other foreign aids were on standby, and facing strong teams continuously was a good exercise for Yingbo. Similar to the previous game, Dalian Yingbo started passively, with Guoan's passing and control and small-range cooperation being默契. Dalian's defense was vulnerable, and Guoan's simple long pass allowed Abreu to score the first goal with a solo shot, showing his hot form. Dalian Yingbo was relatively passive, with their backline easily breached, only Kalanga starting as a foreign aid, and no midfielders controlling the…

Unexpectedly, another warm-up match during the winter break has left fans surprised as the title contenders conceded three goals in just eight minutes, suffering a 3-2 reversal at the hands of the promoted team. Fans are now saying that letting go of one player was a mistake! Among the current Chinese Super League teams, there are not many capable of challenging for the championship. Besides the Shanghai duo, only Beijing Guoan stands a chance, with Chengdu Rongcheng still lacking in strength. Beijing Guoan's goal has always been to strive for the top, not necessarily to win first place, but to inspire the team and encourage players to be enterprising and fearless in the face of difficulties. In the 2024 season, Beijing Guoan missed out on the championship, but they did secure a spot in the AFC Champions League thanks to Shanghai Port's double championship. For the 2025 season, Beijing Guoan is undoubtedly aiming to improve further, so they made adjustments to their squad during the winter transfer window, releasing five players, including two veterans Zhang Chengdong and Yu Dabao, as well as foreign player Mamadou. During the winter break, Beijing Guoan's biggest gain was securing Serginho, allowing the team to have an additional foreign player for the new season, making the club a strong contender for the 2025 Chinese Super League title. After releasing players and bringing in new signings, the team naturally needs time to gel. On January 21st, Beijing Guoan faced newly promoted Dalian Yingbo in a friendly match. In terms of starting lineups, Dalian Yingbo only fielded…
