If Nantong Zhiyun had known that the confrontation with SIPG would have such serious consequences, they would have preferred to suffer a 5-0 loss rather than accept a 1-8 defeat. In addition, after Nantong Zhiyun lost to SIPG on the road, the team's relegation situation is very serious. It can be said that if Nantong Zhiyun does not make a strong rebound in the next game, the club can basically prepare for relegation in advance. Fans won't be surprised if the team is eventually relegated to the Central League. Nantong Zhiyun's strength is not competitive in the relegation of the Chinese Super League, the team lacks notable core players, and most of the new foreign aid are players that other Chinese Super League clubs do not need. The fact that Caron and Rosa joined Nantong Zhiyun one after another just confirms this point.
Karon joined SIPG and performed poorly and was eventually dropped by the club. Rosa, on the other hand, was a foreign striker that Jinmen Tigers were reluctant to keep, and failed to secure a starting position after moving to the Korean league. These two foreign aiders, who were eliminated from the Chinese Super League, were brought in by Nantong Zhiyun, and naturally could not immediately improve the strength of the team. In addition, Nantong Zhiyun's local players, like the foreign aiders, are all picked up, and the overall level is generally not high. Therefore, it can be predicted that Nantong Zhiyun has a high probability of being relegated this season, and the team can only hope for a miracle to happen.
