Qingdao West Coast ended the first half of the Super League season with a 2-2 draw against Shanghai Shenhua in the 15th round, achieving an impressive unbeaten streak of 11 matches. Currently, Qingdao West Coast has 18 points, placing them 6th in the standings, tied with Shandong Taishan, which has pleased the fans. However, the number of draws has been high, leading to the nickname 'King of Draws'. During this period, the coaching abilities of Zheng Zhi and Huang Bowen have sparked discussions among fans. Qingdao West Coast's record in the first 15 rounds stands at 3 wins, 9 draws, and 3 losses, with the draw count leading the league. Although the number of draws is high, these results have contributed 9 points to the team, equivalent to 3 wins, which is still quite commendable. The team faced several challenges at the start of the season, including the head coach Shao Jiayi being appointed as the national team coach, leaving Zheng Zhi to take over without much independent coaching experience. The loss of key players also made the start difficult for Qingdao West Coast. In the 9th round, Zheng Zhi received a red card for his dissatisfaction with the referee's decision, leading assistant coach Huang Bowen to take charge. Huang Bowen has achieved 2 wins and 4 draws in the 6 matches he has managed, showing better results than Zheng Zhi, which has led to discussions about the coaching abilities of the two. Although Zheng Zhi is suspended, he remains the head coach of Qingdao West Coast, responsible for daily training and tactical arrangements. In the upcoming matches, Zheng Zhi's return from suspension will be a focal point, and fans are eager to see if their collaboration can continue to yield good results.
