Wang Xuanhong, who has missed only 3 of the 12 matches due to suspension, will make his return in the upcoming 22nd round of the Central League, away to Yanbian Longding. If Dalian Imbo succeeds in achieving the feat of reaching the Super League this season, Wang Xuanhong's heroic performance in the Liaoning Ironmen game, where he came on as a substitute and scored two goals to seal the deal, will surely become a classic moment in the team's history. Although Dalian Yingbo did not strengthen its backline in the second transfer window, Wang Xuanhong's comeback has undoubtedly brought more tactical options to the team's midfield. As a superb substitute, his return will be crucial for the team's fight for the Super League.
Dalian Yingbo faces four key matches in the remaining 12 matches of their Central League campaign. The first is the away match against Liaoning Ironmen on September 1. Since Li Jin Yu took over, the team has been rejuvenated and will not back down from any opponent. The first round is full of drama, and Liaoning Ironmen will certainly "resist" with all their might. The match against Guangzhou on September 21st will be a grudge match, with tension between the two sides caused by the clash in the first round. On October 6, against Chongqing Tongliang Dragons, Dalian Ironmen have the chance to extend their lead to six points in the second round if they can maintain their points advantage, which is crucial for the direct battle between the relegation rivals.
On October 26th, Dalian Yingbo will welcome Yunnan Yukun at home as the Chinese League One comes to an end. At the moment, it seems that Yunnan may have already locked up the promotion spot in advance, while Dalian and other super teams will continue to be in suspense until the last moment. In the next 12 rounds of the Chinese Super League journey, Dalian Yingbo will face problems with veteran fitness and injuries, which could affect their road to the top. Zhao Mingjian is doing his best to lead his hometown team back to the top league. After the vacation, Dalian Yingbo will restart training, and Karanga's form is something to look forward to. Meanwhile, young players such as Zhu Pengyu and Mao Weijie are making rapid progress, and they are getting a chance to train at a higher level.
