Yesterday afternoon, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers and Dalian People played the second warm-up match before the season, and finally it was a 0:1 loss. Next, Jinmen Tigers will compete with Beijing Guoan.
The Tsinlien warm-up game was played in three 30-minute periods. The two sides played to 0:0 in the first two periods.The Zim Tigers conceded a goal in the third period. It is understood that the game was evenly matched and both sides played a relatively open game. Jinmen Tigers created several good offensive opportunities, but failed to knock the opponent's goal. Two minutes into the third quarter, Dalian got a corner kick and Fei Yu accurately found Manzocchi, who scored a header. The coaching staff of Jinmen Tigers believes that this game reflects the current physical condition of the players, tests the team's deficiencies, and provides a reference for the next training. Interestingly, neither team revealed more details of the match publicly after the game.
According to the plan, Dalian ended the first phase of training after the warm-up match and they focused their attention on February 16 until yesterday for a total of three weeks. Jinmen Tigers started training on February 20 and planned to end the first phase of training on March 20 for four weeks. It can be seen that Tsimshatsui Tigers attach great importance to the first phase of training. In addition to laying a more solid physical foundation, it should also run techniques and tactics more carefully.
It has been reported that center back Song Yue, who did not choose to renew his contract with Jinmen Tigers this season, recently appeared in Shanghai Shenhua's camp wearing the No. 4 jersey, which means that Song Yue will most likely not return to his hometown team, Nantong Zhiyun. In addition, center back Qiu Tianyi, whose contract was not renewed for the new season, went to Guangzhou for a trial. In addition, Zhou Tong, who has previously moved to New Zealand's Auckland, has mostly good new platforms, with the Jinmen Tigers unable to renew their striker's contract.
