On May 5, the Central League was in full swing, Xinjiang Tianshan Snow Leopard team in Meizhou Wuhua County Stadium to face Shaanxi Chang'an Athletic team, but returned with a score of 1 to 4 defeat. After the game, Xinjiang head coach Pei Encai bluntly pointed out that the team in the defensive end exposed many shortcomings, and said the team will focus on improving the defensive ability.
Bui En Cai revealed that since the beginning of the season, he had a premonition that the team might suffer a painful loss. He pointed out: "We conceded the first goal in only the 5th minute of the game, and this premature conceding disrupted our pre-match deployment. Although we were two goals down in the first three rounds of the tournament, it is impossible for us to make a comeback in every game as we did in the last round. Therefore, the team must strengthen its training on the defensive end from now on."
