On the night of September 25th, the 17th round of the Chinese Super League (CSL) supplemental match was played, Guangzhou City team was defeated by Shanghai Harbor team with a score of 0-2, and the good momentum of two consecutive wins came to an abrupt end. After the match, Guangzhou City's head coach Li Wei Feng stepped into the scene of the press conference.
Regarding the game, Li Wei Feng said bluntly, "Our players are still a little young and looked a little restrained in the opening stage. I told them that in order to compete with strong teams or grow into a strong team, the mentality on the field is crucial, and they should dare to control and pass the ball. However, we did get too nervous in the first half."
Li Wei Feng further explained that for a young team, these problems are to be expected: "Of course, this is a necessary part of growth. The players are still young and problems are inevitable, we will make adjustments and reflect deeply in the next time."
Since Li Wei Feng replaced Zhao Jun Zhe as the team's head coach, the team's morale has improved significantly. Following a 2-0 win over Tianjin Jinmen Tigers, they picked up their first win since the start of the Chinese Super League and beat city rivals Guangzhou 1-0 in a relegation battle. However, Li Wei Feng's side suffered their first defeat against a strong Shanghai Harbour team, which has become an important test for him as a head coach.
