How does he feel about reuniting with his old friend on such a special occasion? Li Jin Yu responded, "We have always maintained close contact, not only limited to team affairs, but also privately concerned about each other's lives. However, in the professional arena, we have transformed from players to coaches, and our attitude towards the game has always been the same. We all want our teams to perform at their best and bring joy to the fans who support us. Therefore, no matter how deep the friendship is, our mindset remains the same when facing the profession and the game, and that is to want the team to give their best and play a great game."
Wuhan Changjiang's foreign aid Forbes also revealed at the conference, "The recent training has been going well and we have come out from the setback of the last game. For this matchup, we will also go all out and try to get the win."
