The second phase of the CBA league is nearing its end, with teams actively preparing and competing in hopes of concluding this stage on a high note. During this critical period, some eye-catching developments have emerged within the league. Guangdong Southern Tigers' recent performance has been remarkable, with an eight-game winning streak shining brightly in their season's journey, which also marks their longest winning streak to date. However, the dense schedule and relative lack of depth in the lineup have placed significant pressure on the main players. As the saying goes, "A good sword comes from sharpening; the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from enduring cold." The players strive in high-intensity matches, but injuries quietly arrive. Xu Jie has already encountered injury issues, and the situation for veteran Ren Junfei is not optimistic either. In a game against Guangzhou Long-Lions, Ren Junfei suffered a recurrence of his back injury, which has become a thorny problem. According to Guangdong media reports, he did not travel with the team to the away game, meaning he will miss the upcoming matches against Tongxi and Shanghai. Despite Ren Junfei's advancing age, his role in the team cannot be underestimated. His statistics of an average of 7.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game testify to his capabilities. In tactical arrangements during games, head coach Du Feng often deploys Ren Junfei in crucial fourth quarters, where he serves as the team's stabilizing force, relying on his rich experience to steady the team's morale. His absence will undoubtedly impact Guangdong Southern Tigers in multiple aspects.…

Why is it that in today's CBA news, the excitement of the games seems to be overshadowed by various dramatic events off the court? From star player Zhou Qi's emotional outbursts on the court to referees once again becoming the focus of conflict, from the frequent changes in foreign players to the internal management crisis of Beijing Shougang, a series of issues that appear independent are actually like dominoes, reflecting the growing pains that the CBA cannot avoid in its journey towards professionalization. Is this a problem with the players or the league? It's worth our careful consideration. Zhou Qi has once again become the center of public opinion. In a crucial game for Qingdao Men's Basketball, he was ejected from the game after receiving technical fouls for his dissatisfaction with the referee's decision. This incident quickly sparked heated discussions, and there were even reports that he would likely face an additional suspension. However, this is not the first time Zhou Qi has become the center of controversy due to emotional outbursts. As early as the 2021 playoffs, he was fined for questioning the referee's decision on the court, leading people to jokingly say, "Zhou Qi's performance and temperament are always equally unpredictable." There is no denying that Zhou Qi is undoubtedly a top player in the CBA. At the center position, he has led his team to victory multiple times with his height and basketball IQ, and is even the "pillar" of the national team. However, his emotional management issues are like a scar that keeps recurring. Whether it's…

Recently, multiple news from the CBA has caught the attention of fans. First, Beijing's Zhou Qi was disqualified during a game for insulting the referee. This improper behavior has drawn wide attention and resulted in him facing a one-game suspension. As a professional player, Zhou Qi should be aware of the impact of his actions on the game and the team. It is hoped that he can learn from this incident and face future games with a more mature and professional attitude! Additionally, Diallo of Shanxi has confirmed his temporary departure from the team due to family reasons. This is undoubtedly a significant blow to Shanxi, as Diallo is a capable player whose absence will affect the team's lineup and tactical arrangements. However, it is reported that Diallo will return during the window period cup, which will undoubtedly give Shanxi a boost. We look forward to him continuing to contribute to the team after his return. Last night against Ningbo, Liaoning's management expressed dissatisfaction with the performance of their big foreign aid, Patton, and are considering cutting him to continue searching for a new big foreign aid. This decision reflects Liaoning's high standards and strict requirements for their team lineup. As a championship-contending team, Liaoning needs to ensure that every player performs at their best. Therefore, they have chosen to cut Patton, who did not perform well, and continue to search for a more suitable big foreign aid to achieve better results in future games! Conclusion: These events remind us once again that competition in the CBA is becoming increasingly…

On January 17th, Beijing time, the 32nd round of the CBA regular season kicked off with a comprehensive competition. Shanxi Men's Basketball Team faced off against the strong Shanghai Men's Basketball Team at home. The intense matchup between the two teams was full of highlights, with the score tightly contested and constantly changing. In the first quarter, Lofton's offensive performance was unstoppable, and no one on the Shanxi team could better defend him. Lofton dribbled past half court and drew a foul from the opponent, making one of two free throws. On the other end, Tianrong also committed a foul, sending Zhang Ning to the free throw line. Both teams frequently went to the free throw line, making the game very fragmented. Young player Xie Liyong had some bright moments in organizing the offense, but Diao's three-pointer missed. Xie Liyong grabbed the defensive rebound, and Lofton's fast break layup was blocked by the opponent. Lofton then made two consecutive turnovers, with the ball going in and out of bounds. Both teams played somewhat chaotically on the court, but it was Diao who eventually hit a mid-range shot. Wilson's three-pointer also missed, and the first quarter ended with Shanxi leading 22-20 over Shanghai. In the second quarter, Lofton remained on the court and passed the ball to Wilson for a dunk attempt that was blocked by Diao. Diao then scored two points and drew a foul on Lofton. Shanxi's offense gained momentum, and Liu Wei replaced Wilson with Bradsoe, who immediately made a turnover. Diao quickly scored again. Shanxi then went…

Recently, CBA referees have become the main characters of the league, even able to determine the direction of the game. Players such as Zhao Rui and Qi Lin have been suspended and fined for their dissatisfaction with the referees. In a match between Zhou Qi and Qingdao Men's Basketball, he was also dissatisfied with the referees and was directly ejected from the court. According to reports from Qingdao media, Zhou Qi is likely to be given an additional suspension. This season, Shanxi Men's Basketball's biggest success has been their foreign players, especially Diallo, who just helped the team defeat Shanghai Men's Basketball. However, due to family reasons, he will leave the team for a period of time and is expected to return during the club cup if all goes well. Liaoning Men's Basketball seems to have encountered a curse with their big foreign players this season, with both Achuer and Ture performing poorly and leaving. Patton initially performed well upon joining, but with the addition of Weber, he became redundant. Therefore, Liaoning Men's Basketball is also looking for better foreign players, and Patton will be replaced. Beijing Shougang is currently experiencing internal and external troubles, with many injured players and Xu Limin facing the risk of being sacked. In such a situation, problems are bound to arise among the players. Zhou Qi exploded in a match against Qingdao Men's Basketball, but it was against the referees. Unlike others, Zhou Qi was first called for a technical foul, then he angrily scolded the referees, resulting in him being stripped of his…

Manchester United's Diawara completed a hat-trick in just 12 minutes, leaving fans who left early feeling disappointed! Manchester United faced Southampton at home, with the bottom-placed Saints giving United enough of a threat from the start, but only managing to score an own goal created by Uga. Fans criticized Menu, Hojlund, and Jolo, and if not for Onana's heroic performance, United would have been overwhelmed in the first half. In the second half, substitute Anthony missed the best chance to score! Other players' shots were also saved by Ramsdale. Some fans left the stadium cursing. They couldn't see any hope for United. Some even began to doubt that the problem with United wasn't with Ten Hag. It's always in despair that one bursts forth. Diawara broke through on the flank, turning a dead horse into a live one! In the 82nd minute, Diawara suddenly accelerated and bravely entered the fray, taking advantage of the confusion in Southampton's backline to score! This goal was thanks to Zirkzee's quick pass, as Southampton's defense quickly retreated but failed to cover all angles on Diawara's side! After feinting, Diawara chose to shoot himself, catching Southampton off guard and equalizing the score. Diawara continued to accelerate, and he and Eriksen actually completed a wall-pass combination. After passing to Eriksen, Diawara quickly darted forward to seize the space and drop point. Eriksen played a direct overhead pass behind him to Diawara, and United managed a crazy high-speed combination in the final moments, completely stunning Southampton. Diawara scored his second goal, achieving the "flow" style of play.…

If we were to say that the most outstanding player in Manchester United's attack this season, it would be none other than Amad Diallo, who successfully renewed his contract with the club for a period of 5 and a half years on the 10th. At 4 am Beijing time on January 17th, in the 21st round of the Premier League in the 24-25 season, Manchester United hosted Southampton at home. Amad staged a 12-minute hat-trick in the closing stages, helping the team turn the game around from 0-1 to 3-1, becoming the first since Cristiano Ronaldo. It is hard to imagine that this young key player from Côte d'Ivoire was ranked lower than Anthony under Ten Hag! In this match at Old Trafford, Manchester United did not show the fiery form they should have had at home after the opening. Especially between the 20th and 30th minutes, there were significant problems with Manchester United's midfield control, with a possession rate of only 30%. The popular English talent Dibrin and Ghanaian winger Sulimana did indeed pose a considerable threat to Manchester United's defense, although both were able to approach the opponent's goal on their own, they were not particularly adept at scoring, hence Southampton missed several scoring opportunities in succession. In the 43rd minute of the game, Southampton gained a corner kick opportunity on the left side, Dibrin's header brushed the ball, which then hit Ugart and rebounded into the net, an own goal! Manchester United trailed 0-1 at home! Who could have thought that Manchester United would not have the…

Despite Amorim's appointment not immediately returning Manchester United to the championship race, the Red Devils always manage to create surprises in strong matchups. In the midweek FA Cup third round elimination match, Manchester United eliminated their long-time rival Arsenal while playing with ten men for a long time. After a few days of rest, Manchester United welcomed the 21st round of the Premier League, hosting newly promoted Southampton at Old Trafford. The Saints can be considered the weakest team in the top five leagues, having only earned 6 points after 20 rounds, with no wins in the last 10 rounds, and long-term at the bottom of the league table, almost securing a relegation spot. Adding to this, in the last 16 encounters, Manchester United has maintained an unbeaten record with 9 wins and 7 draws, giving them a significant psychological advantage. In this match, Ugart scored an own goal, Anthony missed an open goal, and Diallo performed a hat-trick, resulting in a 3-1 victory that ended Manchester United's four-game winless streak! Despite the tight schedule, Amorim still fielded most of the main players and set up the usual 3421 formation, with Hoyerun as the center forward, B fee and Garnacho forming the double attacking midfield, Diallo and Mazravi flying on both wings in midfield, Ugart and Menu stationed in the middle, Martinez, Yueluo, and De Ligt forming the three central defenders, and Onana guarding the goal. After the game started, the home team Manchester United did not quickly take control, but it was the Saints who took the initiative first.…

In the early hours of today, a fierce battle unfolded in the 21st round of the Premier League, with Manchester United hosting Southampton at their home ground. In the first half, Ugart scored an own goal, and in the closing stages of the second half, Diawara scored three goals within 12 minutes, helping Manchester United to a 3-1 comeback victory over Southampton. However, it was Anthony's wasted open goal opportunity in the 59th minute after coming on as a substitute in the second half that sparked heated debate. Let's take a look. Ganacho broke into the left side of the penalty area and then crossed the ball in front of the goal. Anthony followed up to meet the ball and shoot. Just as everyone thought Anthony was about to score as a substitute, an astonishing moment occurred. Anthony, facing an open goal, actually kicked the ball towards the opposing goalkeeper, who then easily saved it. It can be said that Anthony really missed a golden opportunity for an open goal. Normally, a goal like this could be scored with your eyes closed, but in Anthony's feet, it turned into an impossible chance. This incident has sparked heated discussions among fans. Fan 1 said: "It's harder to miss this ball than to score." Fan 2 said: "He blushed after kicking it himself, it was too abstract."

Manchester United has officially announced that 22-year-old Ivorian winger Amad Diallo has successfully completed a contract extension, which will last for 5 years and 6 months, extending until June 2030. Notably, this new contract does not include the common one-year priority renewal clause typically seen in contracts for Red Devils players. "I have had some amazing moments at the club, but I believe there is much more to come, and I am very ambitious about the game," said Diallo after signing the contract alongside Technical Director Jason Wilcox. Prior to the contract extension, Diallo was operating under the terms of his original contract signed when he moved from Atalanta to Manchester United in 2020, with a weekly salary of less than £30,000. Reports suggest that his new contract has increased his weekly salary to between £90,000 and £120,000, which is not excessive considering he will be at the prime of his career at 28 when the contract ends. If he performs exceptionally well during this period, Manchester United could consider raising his weekly salary to between £150,000 and £180,000, leaving room for future salary adjustments. After loan spells at Glasgow Rangers and Sunderland, Diallo returned to the Manchester United first team last season and demonstrated his potential. He scored crucial goals against strong teams like Manchester City and Liverpool. This season, Diallo has made 27 appearances across all competitions, contributing 6 goals and 7 assists. However, he was surprisingly benched by Ten Hag. Fortunately, interim manager Van Nistelrooy reactivated him, allowing Diallo to shine under new coach Amorim. Despite Manchester…
