The players and their coach is also very good. It's a very good challenge for us to play against a team like that, and the whole team will have to be at their best to face it tomorrow."
Cai Huikang said, "For me, tomorrow's game is very critical, recently our team is getting better and better, it is a very good opportunity to have such a strong opponent as a litmus test of the results of the training we have been doing for a while, and we will resolutely carry out the intentions that our coach usually emphasizes."

of poor defense, probably because they are more characterful on offense. For us, the head coach has given us a lot of requirements to limit the opponent. Like I said before, it's still important to follow through with the coach's setup, continue the previous game's form, not letting our opponents score and minimizing their threatening shots on goal."
Stanley said in the conference, "It's always a pleasure to play against a top opponent every time, and I think Harbour is one of the top teams in China, and we need to go and play against such strong players to test our training level. We've done a lot of preparation for this game and at the same time we're continuing to polish our tactics."
Regarding the team's preparation, Stanley said, "The most important thing is definitely to prepare for the next game and make corresponding deployment for the next opponent. Of course, it is also important to polish my own style of play, so that the players understand my technical and tactical style of play, to establish their own tactical style of play is more important than what opponent to face. In these recent days, we first study the harbor as an opponent, and we will think about Shandong after playing this one."

defense, Stanley said, "As a team, we can't just play defense against him alone.

is very good offensive player and we respect him, but it's impossible for the whole team to focus on him alone. We have good defenders and midfielders and they all know what to do in defense."
Finally Stanley spoke about Adebenelo's form, saying "Adebenelo is gradually getting back to his full strength and is getting closer to being ready to start. He played 20 minutes in the last game against Dalian and this past week we had an instructional game where he played 60 minutes. We will play him longer and longer at the right time and eventually be able to start."
Gao Tianyi said, "We have prepared for this game after a week of preparation, and we have made a comprehensive deployment against our opponents on both offense and defense, and we hope that we can play a wonderful game under the leadership of our coach and get a good result."
