Guoan: The bigger the scene, the more exciting!

Special correspondent Song Ci reports On May 5, the 11th round of the Chinese Super League started, and Guoan challenged Dalian InBev away. This is the first time in the history of Beijing Guoan team to visit Dalian Barracuda Bay Football Stadium, as the only unbeaten team in the Chinese Super League, Guoan has only one goal in this game: to take away three points.

In the two rounds of the Chinese Super League during the May Day holiday, Guoan played away. The team stayed in Shanghai for two recovery sessions after the last round. Because of their short stay in Shanghai, some of the players' families also took advantage of the holiday to come to Shanghai, and the players were in a very good mood during the two days.

On the evening of May 3, Guoan flew directly from Shanghai to Dalian. On May 4, Zhou Jinhui, chairman of the club, made a special trip from Beijing to Dalian and visited the team before the game. Since Sinobo Group took over, Zhou Jinhui rarely made public appearances away from home, and this trip to Dalian shows that Zhou Jinhui attaches great importance to this game.

Zhou Jinhui said to the players: "I have two thoughts to tell you - the first point is that I am not worried about you fighting a tough battle with your direct competitors now, you have proved that Guoan is a team that dares to fight a tough battle and can fight a tough battle, and we have shown the temperament of a strong team." The second point is that I am not worried about you playing teams in the middle and lower reaches of the ranking, and playing Wuhan Three Towns is an example. What has made us miss the championship opportunity several times over the years is the results of facing the middle and lower teams, which is our stubborn disease. If we want to win the championship this year, we have to correct this old problem, and we must not take any opponent lightly. ”

This game is a game that hopes to make history again for the Guoan team, and if they can win away from home, they will break the unbeaten record of 18 rounds of cross-season unbeaten in team history, and will usher in the 300th victory in the Chinese Super League in team history.

Guoan has come to Dalian many times to compete, but this is the first time to fight in Barracuda Bay. For the national security team, there is no strange feeling about the attendance rate of 50,000 or 60,000 spectators, and even habitual. After all, Guoan's home stadium is among the top in China and even in Asia in terms of attendance and atmosphere. The Guoan players are looking forward to the game in Barracuda Bay, and many players have said that the more big scenes like this, the more exciting it will be.

"With more than 60,000 fans supporting them at the home stadium in Dalian, it will be very difficult for us. I hope the players can show good form and I hope Lin Liangming can continue to help us win. Setien spoke about Dalian InBev's home advantage before the game, "Dalian have a good squad, they have a lot of good players, and the unbeaten run at home also shows that. ”

This game is also a battle between old people. Both sides have their own old acquaintances in the formation, so they see each other, there is warmth, but they will never show mercy to each other.

Lin Liangming, the striker of the Guoan team's recent hot form, has played in Dalian for four seasons, and this is the first time that Lin Liangming has returned to Football City since leaving Dalian. At the pre-match press conference, Lin Liangming, who scored a goal in the last game, said that he hoped to repay the Dalian fans who had supported him with his best performance.

The veteran Yan Xiangchuang is the player who won the championship in 2009, and Jin Pengxiang and Lv Peng were once introduced to Guoan by Li Ming, the Dalian general manager of the Guoan club. In addition, Dalian foreign player Traore played for Guoan last season and made 27 appearances for Guoan.

Xiao Chuang, who was in Guoan, is now a veteran of Dalian InBev, and in the teaching match between the two sides at the beginning of the year, Yan Xiangchuang also broke through the Guoan goal. Talking about the former national security player, team insiders said frankly: Don't ignore the role of veterans, Yan Xiangchuang's ability is not inferior to Han Chao. If he plays, even for 10 minutes or even a few minutes, you have to keep an eye on him.

It is worth mentioning that Fabio will also usher in his 50th Chinese Super League game in this game. Fabio has been on good feet lately, and the top scorer said before the game that it doesn't matter if he can continue to score goals, and that there is only one goal, which is to help the team overcome their opponents.
