In the climax of the 29th round of the Chinese Super League (CSL), Beijing Guoan was unlucky to lose 3-1 to Dalian People, a consecutive loss that demoralized the team. After the match, Guoan manager Stanley said bluntly that it was a match they should not have lost.
Reflecting on the game, Stanley expressed his disappointment with the result: "We were all frustrated with the outcome of the game. In the first half, we were eager to win, but the situation in front of us made it difficult for us to see the light of day, especially because we made some small mistakes. In the second half, the situation remained the same, especially after the other team took the lead. It was a typical game - we were hungry for a win and failed to get it."
Physically and mentally exhausted, the team had just experienced a game against Zhejiang that consumed a lot of their energy. Before the match against Zhejiang, Guoan was in good shape, but the loss disrupted the team's rhythm.
Despite the difficulties faced, the players still showed the spirit of tenacity and hard work, and the overall form of the team has improved compared to the beginning of the year. The players did not give up at the last minute of the game and together they scored a goal, a perseverance that deserves to be commended.
With a packed schedule, injuries and bad games are inevitable. The key thing is that the whole team is working together and I believe we can get out of it. We played poorly in today's game and lost a tournament that we should not have lost.
