In the 33rd round of the Chinese Super League (CSL) on December 27th, Guangzhou Football Team lost to Changchun Yatai by a score of 1-4, and this round of loss made them lock up the fate of relegation in one round in advance. Regrettably, this marks the first time Guangzhou has been relegated since they were crowned Super League champions in the 2010 season. According to the rules of the tournament, the team, which has won the Super League title eight times in the past 12 years, will have to play in the Central League A next season.

Faced with such a complicated situation, Guangzhou fans and players could not help but fall into a deep thought. And behind this historic photo, how much struggle and sweat is hidden, I'm afraid only the parties involved can appreciate.
