Summary of Sports Interviews

On May 13, former Shenzhen team captain Ge Zhen shared insights about Shenzhen's new Pengcheng team in an interview with reporter Cheng Wenli.

--Dissecting the Tactical Style of Shenzhen Xinpengcheng

Looking back at our two years in the Central League, we played Shenzhen Xinpengcheng four times, all of which ended in victories, but each time we looked unusually passive. They are known for their Spanish possession tactics, and despite their uniqueness, after two years of sharpening our skills, we know their tactics well, especially their domestic players. For this reason, we targeted our strategy and gained the upper hand on a psychological level. This game is crucial for us, as if it were a six-point battle, coupled with the challenge of playing away from home, the challenge is self-evident.

-Revealing the mystery of the West Coast's injured outside back.

In yesterday's away match with Shenzhen Xinpengcheng, two foreign aiders were inadvertently injured. Due to days of rain in Shenzhen, the Bao Sports Ground was wet and slippery, in stark contrast to the hard ground on which we usually train. Qingdao's cool climate and Shenzhen's sweltering heat made the players' discomfort with the pitch exacerbate their muscle fatigue. This, combined with the overall fatigue of the players due to the frequency of recent matches, led to two injuries and we paid a terrible price.

-Examining the performance of former Shamrocks goalkeeper Ji Jiabao since joining the club

Ji Jiabao has great potential and has rarely played during his time in Shenzhen. Last year he only played once or twice, but he performed well. We value his potential and believe he has a bright future ahead of him.

-- Concerned about the relegation situation of Shenzhen Xinpengcheng

I have full confidence in Shenzhen Xinpengcheng to stay in the relegation. It is reported that they have made a series of adjustments in the transfer window and the club's salary level is at a high level in the Chinese Super League. The club is relatively stable and there is no problem of salary arrears. I don't think this team will be relegated for sure. Although they are facing difficulties at the moment, passing and controlling the ball is not a long-term solution, improving the quality of players is the key.
