In the spring breeze and warm April 26th afternoon, at 15:35, the first round of the fierce battle in the first round of the Central League, Jiangxi North Gate and Chengdu Rongcheng is about to kick off. Four days ago, on April 24th, a pre-match conference was held in the press conference hall of the distant Dalian district, where Chengdu Rongcheng's coach Xu Zhengyuan and captain Gan Rui both appeared.
Coach Seo Jung-won said confidently, "In the first round of competition, our preparation was quite good. Compared to last year, the team has undergone a radical change. Since the Korean coaching team joined us, the players' physical fitness has improved significantly, and the pace of the game is more compact than last year. We have made great strides both on the defensive and offensive end."
For his part, Captain Gan Rui emphasized, "From the coaching team to the players, we have gone through a huge change. After four months of closed training, our style of play and soccer philosophy have changed drastically. As players, we must seize these four months to adapt to the tactics of the head coach. I believe our fans and friends will see a very different Chengdu Rongcheng team from last year."
