On June 15, the Chinese Super League ushered in the 4th round of the fierce battle, Zhejiang team and Dalian People's team narrowly met. In the pre-match conference, Dalian People's head coach Xie Hui revealed his strategic thinking: "I had two encounters with Zhejiang when I was coaching in Nantong, and I have a deep understanding of their style and strength. I think their ranking doesn't match their strength, but should be higher. In terms of the playing field, it was only a red card that led to the loss. We will give high priority to this game in terms of tactics and personnel arrangement, and we must be well prepared to face a team coached by Jordy."

Talking about the team's distance from tactical perfection, Xie Hui said, "It's not a simple math problem, soccer is far more complicated than math. If we use a mathematical formula to measure it, then if we play against Henan and we draw one game and Zhejiang loses Henan by two games, then we might as well not play at all. I think it takes a long time to reach a deep understanding of tactics. Our internal meeting today identified many issues that need to be improved, but not yet perfect. I want to emphasize that we can't separate fitness and tactics, this is a misunderstanding that exists in the whole soccer world, it's not a mere fitness issue."

For the role of the veteran players, Xie Hui gave a high evaluation: "These players have not been duly recognized for a long time, I'm not sure why, but now it can be clear that they are fully deserving of such strength, fully qualified to show their level on the highest platform."
