Special correspondent Zuo Ruiyuxi reports On the evening of the 22nd, the game between Yukun and Guoan had not yet started, and the 22,966 fans in the stands of the Yuxi Plateau Sports Center in Yunnan Province were already excited. The stadium played the national anthem for the first time on a Chinese Super League match day, and Yuxi is the hometown of Nie Er, the composer of the March of the Volunteers. This is the debut of Yunnan football in the Chinese Super League, and it is the return of Yunnan football to the top league since the era of A-A in 2003.

At the beginning of the game, the huge banners of the "Plateau Domination" slowly unfolded on the east stand showed the long-lost desire of Yunnan fans for the Chinese Super League. Yukun's very aggressive and aggressive performance after the opening was also fully in line with the expectations of the vast majority of people in the audience.

The home team, which was aiming for relegation, once had the upper hand with a pressing style of play. It wasn't until 30 minutes later that Beijing Guoan, who was aiming to win the championship, began to enter the role. During the game, seeing that the opponent was forced to make a wrong pass, Yukun head coach Anderson jumped up from the coach's seat, shook his white hair, waved his fists, and yelled - this was the scene and rhythm he wanted.

After all, Yukun is a new army reorganized after promotion, and the half-time is not over, and the possession of the ball is gradually transferred to the hands of Guoan, who has the advantage of overall strength. In the 50th minute, the visitors had their first threatening attack of the game. Two minutes later, Guoan, who had been moving on both wings in a row, played a smooth coordination in the middle. Fabio kicked up at the top of the penalty area and scored a wonderful long-range shot to add drama to this unforgettable night for Yunnan fans, and Guoan led 1-0.

After that, the home team's goalpost kick and one-on-one goal made the stands surging and loud. Even if Cao Yongjing goes to another city for national security, even if the two armies each get a red card in the second half stoppage time, the sound of "fighting together" and "Yukun fighting" continues until the end of the song.

After the game, Guoan head coach Setien said that Yukun's performance was somewhat unexpected for him: "It doesn't look like a promoted team at all, judging by the tactics they use and the physical reserves, it's a good team. Facing the media, Anderson did not hide his disappointment, he affirmed the team's excellent performance in the first half, and admitted that whether it is Hou Yongyong or other players, there is still a lot to improve, "As far as this game is concerned, we still lack more shots and more scoring opportunities. The ambitious Norwegian concluded, "With other opponents coming up, I think we'll have more goals and more wins." ”

The debut of the Chinese Super League ignited more than just Yuxi. Due to the limited capacity of Yukun's home stadium, in order to meet the requirements of fans as much as possible, the club cooperated with Wanda Cinema in the provincial capital Kunming to set up a "second live" viewing point, and Yunnan TV Kanglu Channel broadcast all the home and away games of Yukun this season, and the signal of the first show of the Chinese Super League covered 16 states and cities in the province.

The first home ticket went on sale and was sold out in 10 minutes.

Yuxi Bus is a fan bus specially opened for the Chinese Super League match day, shuttling between the high-speed rail station and the Yukun home stadium, and the expeditionary force of Beijing Guoan took the lead in experiencing the treatment of free bus pick-up and drop-off for away fans.

At about 7 o'clock in the evening, less than an hour before the start of the game, the C568 train carried the last group of fans from Kunming to Yuxi. Seeing that there were not many people, the female driver of a bus who had completed the task of connecting the fans of the away team announced on the spot after contacting the company that she would send everyone directly to the stadium for free. The fans expressed their gratitude, saying that it was better to scan the code to pay the fee, and the driver said: "You are also guests of Yuxi, just give a good review." ”

0-2, the home team lost, but the game was exciting and long-lasting. Until 1 o'clock in the morning the next day, the barbecue stalls and fireworks in the streets and alleys of Yuxi were still full of the taste of the Chinese Super League debut, including the accents of Kunming, Lijiang and Honghe, "What will happen if Enrique's goal on the goalpost goes in?" "What should Zhao Yuhao do with the next round of suspension?" "Beijing's national security is not as strong as it seems......

From the new faces of Yukun such as Enrique, Hou Yongyong, and Nene on the field, to the vicissitudes of Guo Guangqi, Ou Chuliang, He Zhengyuan, He Yunqun, and Shi Jun, the old ministers of the Red Tower, outside the court...... You will find that there is a belief called football, which has never been extinguished in the Red Clay Plateau; There is a life called Yunnan, because the Super League has a different taste.

From A A to the Chinese Super League, from Yunnan Hongta to Yunnan Yukun, compared to the long expectations of 21 years, the 90-minute contest, and then 13 minutes of stoppage time are also short. Although there were no surprises and upsets in the Chinese Super League debut, everyone was full of hope, after all, Yunnan Yukun still has 14 home games this season. Every Super League match day is of great significance to Yukun, and it is worth their fans to continue to be fascinated and crazy about.
