As the Chinese Super League draws near, Guoan fans are looking forward to it, because in the new season, Guoan will return to the new stadium to share the joy of soccer time with the fans. At this moment, Guoan fans have been waiting for three years.
At the end of the 2019 Chinese Super League season, Beijing Guoan came from three goals down in a row to beat old rivals Shandong Taishan 3-2 in what was their last appearance to date. A year later, in faraway Thailand, the phrase "Go Wuhan" was hot-blooded enough, but it also opened up three years of separation between the team, the stadium and the fans, with soccer becoming almost dispensable.
Fortunately, it's all coming back. After the epidemic, spring flowers bloomed, giving Industrial Sports, Guoan and the fans a chance to get together again every weekend, and by the end of 2022, the main body of the new Industrial Sports soccer stadium was completed. The Beijing New Year's Eve Party with the theme of "Embarking on a New Journey" also brought the public's classic memories of the past into the Industrial Sports for more than two years. Famous singer Sha Baoliang and Beijing Guoan players sang the song "Guoan will always be the first", which brought everyone back to the passionate years.
At present, the new sports has entered the "Beijing Guoan" period, the entire sports program is in the Spring Festival after the intense sprint construction stage, the work is steadily advancing. In the square outside the north gate, the iconic "Welcome" sculpture of male and female workers has returned to its original location. The relative positions of the original 1 to 24 stands have also been retained, which will give Beijing fans a sense of "coming home" as they enter the stadium in the new season.
It is worth noting that the new sports stands have 68,000 "acacia green" seats, which is about 3,000 more than the previous maximum capacity. The first row of seats in the stands closest to the infield is only 8.5 meters from the infield grass area. The first row of stands under the podium is almost "zero distance" from the bench and warm-up area of the home and away teams, which is where the charm of a professional soccer stadium lies. In addition, the new sports also added a "hardcore" fans area - the North Stand. There is no box area in this stand, but a huge overall ramp design from the second floor above the stands, with a total of 42 rows of seats. The view of the entire stadium from the top of the North Stand is definitely a "God's eye view" experience, making the stadium known as the home of the Devils even more spectacular.
As the epidemic recedes, everyone's life goes back to the way it was. For Beijing fans, it's a great pleasure to go to the new industrial stadium on weekends, cheer for the team at the closest distance, and set off green soaring in the stands. Because only the three elements of the industrial stadium, the national team and the fans are complete, is the way the Chinese Super League should be.
