The league, which is still being played in Guangzhou and Gusu. The four competition venues in Guangzhou are still Tianhe Stadium, Yuexiushan Stadium, University City Stadium and Huadu Stadium. According to the Yangcheng Evening News, the Huadu Stadium, which was previously affected by the accumulation of water, has now been fully repaired during the off-season for the drainage system, and is now fully compliant with the competition specifications.

Contest.
In this case, the Gusu district can only find another place to compete. Previously, Rugao Sports Center, Changzhou Olympic Sports Center have been in the consideration of the scale, but because of these venues from the team site is too far away, ultimately not be selected. After weighing all aspects, the

Association, the CFF preparatory group after communication with the Gusu District and other relevant parties, identified the Gusu Olympic Sports Center outside the field as the new competition venue; and the other two competition venues remain unchanged, is still the Jiangyin Sports Center and Kunshan Sports Center.

"Sauna" + "barbecue", players face huge tests
For the players, this stage of the journey can be said to be a huge test. Not only is the never-before-experienced "dense journey" of one match in three days and nine matches in a month daunting, but it is also due to the fact that this period of time coincides with the peak of the summer heat.
July is the highest temperature in Guangzhou, according to the weather forecast, the highest temperature in Guangzhou in mid to late July will generally reach about 35 degrees. In July and August, Guangzhou, the overall relative humidity of more than 75%, which means that the Guangzhou race basically in the hot and humid environment, not yet kicked the race on the body is now a sweat, and "sauna" is no different.
And just "out of the plum" Gusu, is now "barbecue" mode. These days, the highest temperature in Gusu has now reached 38 degrees, and the
China Super League (soccer league)
Temperatures will also be around 33 to 35 degrees once the second phase kicks off. Even more worrisome is the fact that because the lights in the outer field of the Gusu Olympic Sports Center do not meet the requirements for competition, all competitions played in this venue will be played at 4:30 pm. Despite not being the hottest time of the day, the heat wave in the afternoon on a three-volt day in Gusau is still very frightening.
With such a tough competition environment, count on this phase of the
China Super League (soccer league)
It's unrealistic to have too good a quality of competition; and injuries to players can flare up in clusters.

However, apart from the above mentioned "big battles", the attraction of the other competitions in the

It can be said that there are serious deficiencies in front of them, coupled with the fact that they are conference competitions, most teams do not have a home atmosphere, so "no one cheers" may become the stage of the
