## Shandong Taishan: Wu Xinghan's Wing Assists in Victory
Under the floodlights at their fortress home ground, Shandong Taishan secured a vital three points, lifting spirits and climbing the league table. While goalscoring heroics often grab the headlines, it was the relentless, intelligent industry of **Wu Xinghan on the right flank that proved decisive**. Playing as a wingback blurring the lines between defence and attack, he was constant danger down the touchline.
His contribution went far beyond traditional defensive duties. Time after time, he surged forward with terrifying pace, sending precise low crosses into the penalty area – each one screamed 'tap-in' for a teammate. One such perfect delivery in the second half found its mark: deftly chipped towards the far post, it evaded scrambling defenders and arrived perfectly on the boot of the advancing midfielder, who sidefooted home emphatically. That assist was reward for his unwavering commitment; he’d already harassed opponents relentlessly throughout the first period.
Beyond creating chances, Wu’s direct running stretched opposition backlines thin, creating space for others. He tracked back diligently when needed but remained an enduring outlet in transition. His high energy seemed to lift those around him. Coach Li Jianyu praised afterwards: "His blend of pace, stamina and vision gives us balance and cutting edge." Indeed, while strikers finish, it was Wu Xinghan’s tireless wing play acting as the crucial catalyst, turning possession into points and powering Taishan towards another hard-fought win. His performance signalled not just victory, but growing confidence within the squad. For fans waving scarves high inside Olympic Sports Center, seeing ‘Wu’ fly offered pure delight. They know when he hums, results follow.
