Japanese media mocks the performance of Chinese football clubs in the AFC Champions League
On February 19, Japanese sports media "Football Digest" published an article stating: The AFC Champions League Elite (ACLE) ended on February 18. Japanese clubs occupied the top three positions, while the three Chinese football clubs were completely defeated!
The final standings of the ACLE group stage: FC Machida ranked first, Kobe second, Hiroshima third, and Japan's teams performed excellently. In sharp contrast was the performance of Chinese football clubs.
Chengdu Rongcheng ranked tenth, Shanghai Shenhua eleventh, and Shanghai Port twelfth. The three Chinese clubs fell into the bottom three, and all three teams were eliminated.
In particular, the Chinese Super League champion Shanghai Port finished at the bottom with four draws and four losses, without a single win in this nightmare match.
Japanese media quoted angry Chinese fans saying: "This is a disgrace." "It's really embarrassing for three teams to be eliminated at the same time." "I can't bear this embarrassment." "The total points of the three teams are lower than that of one team in the J-League." "We were completely beaten by Japan." "Don't they know this is a disgrace?" "The gap between us and Japan is obvious."
Japanese media finally stated: The darkness of Chinese clubs and the brightness of Japanese clubs are worlds apart.
