will be in
Chinese Super League 20th round
road challenge (e.g. soccer)
Tianjin Jinmen Tiger
.. Currently, Qingdao West Coast is in 14th place with a record of 4 wins, 5 draws and 11 losses, while Tianjin Jinmen Tigers are in the upper reaches of the table with 7 more points. For Qingdao West Coast, this game will be a crucial turning point, and once they can beat their opponents, their relegation situation will be greatly improved.
Looking back at the first half of the season, Qingdao West Coast lost 1:3 at home to Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, and will face an even bigger challenge this time around. The absence of Colombian "fast horse" Riascos due to injury has deprived the team of a sharp weapon in the offense. Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, on the other hand, will probably play a starting lineup with 5 foreign players to show their powerful attacking force.
Qingdao West Coast boss Hisashi Kuroki said in the pre-match press conference that the Jinmen Tigers have players with more outstanding abilities in all positions, "The opponent's comprehensive ability is relatively strong, and we have prepared well for this game. In order to take this game, this week we have carried out serious preparation." His words revealed the respect for the opponent and the importance of the game.
For his part, He Longhai expressed his desire for victory on behalf of the team, "This team has made all kinds of preparations, and we are all very eager to win this game and hope for a good result." So far this season, He Longhai has made 8 appearances in various tournaments, all as a substitute, and his performance will have an important impact on the team's offense.
It is worth mentioning that Qingdao West Coast's former meritorious skipper Zhou Xin will sit on the bench as deputy general manager and head of the first team's Chinese coaching team. His ability to make suggestions is highly anticipated, and he may be able to bring new tactical ideas and room for adjustment to the team.
This is a do-or-die game for Qingdao West Coast and they will go all out for the win. Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, on the other hand, will be looking to consolidate their ranking through this match. Let's wait and see who will have the last laugh!
