The original plan, the Chinese Football Association in March 23rd released the new season of the three professional league access list, but a series of "accidental" events so that the list had to be delayed, which delayed up to a week long.
March 29, this late list finally unveiled the mystery, and the so-called "accident" also came to light. Once faced with the crisis of dissolution of the Tianjin Jinmen Tigers in the last minute "resurrection", from the TEDA Holding Group in the independent, taken over by the Tianjin Municipal Sports Bureau, the formation of a new team to continue to fight the new season of the Chinese Super League.
For Tianjin fans, this is undoubtedly good news, but for the Zhejiang team, which is preparing to fill in the Chinese Super League, it is a broken dream. As the runner-up in last season's Central League A, Zhejiang is the alternative team to fill the Super League, which also means that only two teams in the Super League exit, Zhejiang will have the opportunity to fill. Now the Jinmen Tigers "resurrection", Zhejiang team to fill the possibility of the Chinese Super League broken.
Although the failure to pass the Chinese Super League is regrettable, but think about it from another angle, the new season is to play in the first or the Chinese Super League, finally has been finalized, Zhejiang team's preparations for the war is also therefore a clear direction. A month ago, with the suspension of the Jiangsu Football Club, Zhejiang team began to play for the Super League to prepare, from the reinforcements to the arrangement of warm-up matches, are in accordance with the Super League standard, only in the introduction of foreign aid slightly insufficient.
In fact, in order to achieve the goal of the Super League, Zhejiang team in the off-season to make full preparation, in the retention of last season's main lineup on the basis of the new skipper Jordy from Barcelona, but also signed the league performance of the center back Liang Nuoheng. With the possibility of passing on to the Chinese Super League, the team has further strengthened its lineup by signing internal reinforcements such as Gao Di, Gu Chao and Yao Junsheng. In terms of foreign aid, Mu Xiekui has returned to the team, and Matthews has signed a contract that will take effect as soon as he enters the country.
From the overall strength point of view, this set of lineup may still have some gap to play in the Chinese Super League, but it is certainly more than enough to play in the Chinese First Division. From the external environment, after Cangzhou Lions were promoted to the super, Zhejiang team is almost invincible in the Central League, and the chance of winning the top two places through the Super League is very high. For the Zhejiang team in the Central League for four years, waiting for one more season is not an unacceptable result, but more in line with the team's long-term planning and development, after all, the team has more time to prepare, without having to rush.
"Our mentality is very smooth, players, coaching team, including staff and management team has been towards the direction of the Super League, one step at a time." Despite the outside world on the Zhejiang team to be promoted to the Super League, but the club's general manager Jiao Fengbo has been very calm, "Whether it is the Central League or the Super League, our club's general direction will not change, will still adhere to the rational investment, and continue to improve the team's operational structure, age structure and youth training structure, to become a club that can be a long-term, healthy development down the road. "
Now it seems that the Zhejiang team failed to fill in the biggest impact of the Super League, should be the loss of home field advantage. Previously, the Chinese Football Association (CFA) to consider the three major tournaments in the Central League for Wuhan, Meizhou and Zhejiang, Zhejiang Football Association and the relevant departments are also actively preparing for the establishment of the tournament, but due to the existence of the Zhejiang team to fill in the possibility of the Super League, and ultimately give up hosting the tournament.
However, despite the loss of home field advantage, the players are still confident about the upcoming season. Sun Zheng Ao, who has just completed his contract extension with the team, also said, "I think that whether it's in the Chinese Super League or the Chinese League One, what I can do is to do well and show the head coach that I'm ready at any time. Once I am required to play, then I will give my best."
