On May 11th in Beijing, the 9th round of the 2022 season of China Women's Super League was in full swing, with leader Wuhan Chegu Jiangda sweeping second-placed Jiangsu Wuxi Women's Football Team with a 6-0 score. Zhang Linyan's hat-trick was the highlight of the match. After the game, the goal scorer accepted an exclusive interview with the media.
Talking about the game, Zhang Linyan said, "I try my best to show myself in every game, try to score for the whole team, and grasp every opportunity." Facing questions, she revealed, "Although there are many friends in the team, I still give my best during the game. Jiangsu women's soccer team is strong and ranked high, so we pay extra attention to this game. They beat Shanghai before and have a lot of depth. My good friend Xu Huan is also in the team and I want to score for her."
Looking ahead to the next stage of the league, Zhang Linyan said, "The third stage of the league may have to be postponed, so we have more time to prepare, and hopefully the team will gel better. At the beginning we didn't train together for a long time, and as the game goes on, our tacit understanding is gradually improving, and I hope we can win every game behind us." Talking about her personal status, she said modestly: "So far so good, the first few games I had the opportunity to score, but did not grasp, there are still a lot of sure goals did not score, I will summarize the experience, the coach also gave me a lot of help, and I hope that in the future will continue to score."
