November 3 - Shanghai Seaport won this season's Super League title one round ahead of schedule, and the Nantong Zhiyun team sent out a congratulatory letter to Seaport for winning the title.
Congratulation letter: I heard that your club won the championship in one round ahead of schedule in the 2023 season of the Chinese Super League. Nantong Zhiyun Football Club would like to express our heartfelt congratulations to all the coaches, players and staff of your club!
Your club overcame many difficulties in the 2023 season of the Chinese Super League, united and struggled to win the Vulcan Cup again after five years, achieving a new glory in the history of your club; the return of the Chinese Super League Championship to the Yangtze River Delta, but also the glory of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai soccer! As the new champion, your club will surely contribute a high-quality and wonderful duel for the majority of fans, and ascend to the podium of the league championship; your club's high fighting spirit and striving sportsmanship will also serve as a model for professional soccer clubs, and will play a positive, upward and hopeful song for Chinese soccer, which has experienced ups and downs this year but is still reborn in the bloodstream.
Compared to your club's two championships, Zhiyun's first foray into the Chinese Super League had too many shortcomings. This season has stumbled and stumbled forward: there have been detours due to a lack of their own experience, and three points lost due to major miscalculations, creating shortcomings that can't be repaired and will always be difficult to reconcile. The relegation situation has been unclear until now, but the life of Zhiyun will eventually take its fate back into its own hands! Seeing the good and the bad, our club will follow the example of the league leaders and fight for Nantong in the relegation battle for life and death, for the millions of fans who care about Zhiyun and the future of Chinese soccer, and for the defense of their dignity!
We believe that Chinese soccer will eventually converge with the world and that professionalism and competence will determine the winner - there is no other way. The Chinese characteristic of "human feelings" may be an indelible background of Chinese culture, but in professional soccer, we must abandon this "human feelings" status. Talking about human feelings for a day, Chinese soccer is far away from world soccer. As the league builds up, the gap between China and world soccer grows wider and wider, until it becomes an isolated island. If we are vigilant enough, we are not far from the island now. Now is the time to rise and change. The time to act is now!
The beauty and the common, see the good and the good, and the good with you!
