Stepping into the stage of the bye of the 18th round of the 2022 Chinese Super League season, Dalian People lost to Shanghai Shenhua with a score of 1-2, and after this game, Shanghai Shenhua's head coach Wu Jingui stepped into the scene of the press conference.
In the heated post-match exchange, Coach Wu Jingui said, "Tonight, we presented a visual feast for every fan on the field, and we were invigorated by the long-awaited atmosphere of the stadium. Under the leadership of Coach Xie Hui of Dalian People, the team has improved significantly, and their fierce offense put us in a passive position. However, towards the end of the game, our experience played a decisive role, and coupled with the fact that our opponent's main center back left the field with an injury, we seized the opportunity. Before the match, the coaching team warned the players to be prepared for a tough match, and the performance was perfect. We could not have achieved such a good result in Dalian without the full support of the Dalian Region, which provided us with a quality training and playing environment. Finally, may both teams have good luck in future tournaments, and once again, I would like to extend my sincerest thanks to the fans and media in attendance."
Zhu Jianrong, who is newly back from injury, scored two goals in this game, and Coach Wu Jingui said about him, "Zhu Jianrong suffered from injuries, but he came back in heroic form and was able to score a goal, which I think is more or less due to the favor of luck."
The head-to-head battle between Coach Wu Jingui and Coach Xie Hui became the focus of today's game. Facing the questions, Coach Wu Jingui directly said: "China's soccer is in a low period, I hope the young coaches continue to work hard. In the world of soccer, the competition between master and disciple is commonplace, we should not judge the coaching level by the win or loss of a game. Coach Xie Hui has done a pretty good job, and I hope he can continue to work hard to achieve another success."
