In the midst of the Tianjin Jinmen Tigers' campaign, midfield centerpiece Wang Qiuming has suffered a major setback in his career - a serious knee injury. Gu Ying, a reporter for Tianjin's local media outlet Today Sports, revealed that the international player is expected to miss the next three rounds of the Chinese Super League as well as two upcoming World Cup qualifiers in November. Examination results showed that Wang Qiuming suffered serious damage to the collateral ligament in his left knee. On the way back to Tianjin from Dalian, his left leg has been tightly wrapped in protective gear to avoid further damage. Upon returning to Tianjin, Wang Qiuming immediately underwent a review. The Jinmen Tigers' medical team will be in full charge of his treatment and rehabilitation process. Gu Ying pointed out that for sports injuries, the most urgent need during the recovery period is time. Therefore, it seems a foregone conclusion that Wang Qiuming will miss the upcoming matches, which will be a heavy blow not only to the Tianjin Jintian Tigers, but also to the national soccer team, as well as to Wang Qiuming himself. Gu Ying further revealed that Tianjin Jinmen Tigers have made a new plan after the season. Given the early end of the Chinese Super League season, the team will have about half a month of rest and recuperation, which is crucial for the players' physical recovery and preparation for the new season. Considering that an excessively long break may adversely affect the players' physical functions, the Jinmen Tigers plan to organize a period of intensive training for their players after the short break to ensure that they are in the best shape for the new season.
