Recently, Marvel Comics' Venom: The Last Carnival hit the big screen in China, sparking heated debate and emotion among countless fans. The moment the Venom symbiote left its human host and left the planet, it couldn't help but feel a tinge of sadness in its heart. When beautiful things are forced to stage a "curtain call", those classic moments of glory and shame, recalling the past, reluctance and regret intertwined, becoming the most natural emotional outpouring.
Perhaps this is just like our daily life and work. At the end of the movie, the writer's mind is filled with many thoughts. Guangzhou, a faithful follower for 13 seasons, has seen its glory, plight, and gaps. However, after a key home game yesterday afternoon, Guangzhou beat Yanbian Longding by a score of 3:1, the enthusiasm of the fans, the return of meritorious players, the vitality of the young team, everything seems to be calm at this moment, and the sadness is also gone with the wind. The Guangzhou team, founded in 1954 and celebrating its 70th anniversary (2024), is still a beloved team that never stops playing and is full of hope for the future!
This year, Guangzhou team ushered in the 70th anniversary of the founding of the team, as the fans square shouted after the game - only 30 years away from the centennial team! 70 years of wind and rain, the Guangzhou team through ups and downs, but inherited the spirit of the founding of the team in 1954, in the history of Chinese soccer glittering. We treasure this hard-won achievement. We will continue to pass on the spirit and quality of this team, and build a century-old team in the true sense of the word.
Canton has faced many existential challenges in recent years, but there has always been crucial moments of assistance to keep the team afloat. Head Coach Salvador has brought many positives to the team, helping the team out of the doldrums, towards hope and recognition, and just one step away from glory. We would like to thank this outstanding coach from the bottom of our hearts.
At the beginning of the season, the addition of a large number of young players has put Guangzhou team in the spotlight. We were worried that the team would lose its competitiveness and even face relegation crisis. However, the crisis didn't come, the team's performance steadily improved, the ranking climbed up, and finally beat Yanbian Longding 3:1 yesterday, locking the top three of this year's First Division League. This is the victory of power and persistence.
Despite the fact that the chances of overtaking are now slim and the initiative is in the hands of Dalian Yingbo, the suspense of the penultimate round remains. Guangzhou must fight until the last minute to truly determine the winner. In the face of adversity and low-cost operations, Guangzhou has achieved enough to prove its success. Yesterday's victory is the best reward for the fans' support.
Looking back at the game, Yanbian Longding had no desire but still paid attention and did not relax. And Guangzhou team showed a strong pressure from the beginning. The young players showed the results of their training in the home field, and played brilliantly in both offense and defense. Alegria was the first to break through the goal, and Wu Yongqiang's goal was the icing on the cake, Guangzhou had a clear advantage in the first half. In the second half, Yanbian adjusted their tactics and made Guangzhou uncomfortable for a while, but in the end Guangzhou won with a goal from young player Bai Yutao.
This well-deserved win locks Guangzhou into the top three spots in the 2024 First Division, and the final round will result in third place. With a little bit of luck, there is a possibility of overtaking. Unfortunately, the initiative was not in Guangzhou's hands, due to the fact that they failed to win the previous match with vice-champion Jiangxi Lushan, which left them 2 points short. If these 2 points are in hand, Guangzhou team will be equal with Dalian Yingbo and take the initiative. There are no ifs and buts in competitive sports. If you miss it, you can only blame it on your shallow experience and the need to accumulate experience. But the future is obviously full of hope.
It will be a tough battle in the final round away to Nanjing, but anything is possible until the last minute. That's the beauty of competitive sports, the young players don't give up and deserve credit. This year's results are good enough to be recognized. Looking forward to a happy ending in the last game.
