Zhang Xiang, Liu Zefeng, Tang Qirun and a host of other players also took the field.
With the whistle blowing, Qingdao Youth Island quickly started their attack with the intention of seizing the first opportunity and launching a series of fierce attacks on the goal of Jiangxi Beidaimen. Although they failed to break through the opponent's defense in the fierce confrontation, under the pressure, Jiangxi Beidamen still made mistakes.

After losing the ball, Jiangxi North Gate did not get discouraged and started to strengthen the attack, but the attack efficiency was never high. However, in the 53rd minute, they suffered another blow. Charlton, in a quick counterattack by Qingdao Youth Island, accurately passed the ball to Valdu, who easily deducted over the defenders and fired a powerful shot to make the score 2-0.
