The seventh round of the Chinese Super League (CSL) is about to begin with a relegation battle, and on April 21st at 7:00pm, Henan will face Qingdao Hainiu, who have just won their first match, which may be the last chance for the Nanji team. If they don't win again, they will have to make a managerial change, or they will go back to the initial relegation season. Henan's problems this year are across the board. When Kovic comes back in the next game, Huang Zichang and Wang Shangyuan should start and play the game as if it were their last. The three-day vacation also relaxed the players' nervousness.
Changchun Yatai is at the bottom of the table and Chen Yang is unlucky. However, since he has been coaching at Yatai for many years, he won't step down easily. In the next round, he will play against second-bottom Wuhan Sanzhen. If Yatai didn't have Zou Dehai's injury in their last game, he could have scored at home. Two foreigners, Beric and Serginho, are suspended and center back Rosic will have to return within a month. In the next match, only the foreigners of Zoui and Guilherme will be able to play in Changchun Yatai.
This year's relegation in the Chinese Super League is more interesting than the Championship Division. Every five rounds in the Chinese Super League is a node, and six rounds have been played, and the level of each team is obvious. Last season, Zhejiang got off to a poor start but eventually made it into the top four. In contrast, Henan and Changchun Yatai, two of the Chinese Super League's oldest teams with excellent foreign aid, struggled to win. Perhaps a change of manager is indeed needed to change the status quo. Henan is a controversial team, with fans unhappy with the post-match thank-you performance, and Li Wei Feng is also being questioned. As for whether Nam Ki Yee will be dismissed, it is not something that can be decided in a single sentence, as his contract has not yet touched the dismissal clause. Liquidated damages need to be paid.
