On April 20, China's Shandong Taishan Football Club unveiled its pre-match poster with the theme of "Return". Since their parting 1241 days ago, Taishan returned to their homeland to welcome the enthusiastic fans. In these three long years, Taishan has won four championships. In 2023, when Taishan celebrates the 30th anniversary of its establishment, the first home match against Nantong Zhiyun is particularly meaningful.
In the first round of the league, Taishan lost 0-1 to Shanghai Shenhua despite missing a good opportunity. However, in the upcoming second round home match against Nantong Jiyun, Taishan is determined to get their first win of the season.
Before the match, the Taishan team poster with the theme of "return" attracted a lot of attention. The enthusiasm of the fans was high, and the 12-player logo in the center of the poster was even more symbolic - the No. 12 jersey was left to the fans, which was Taishan's deep gratitude to the fans. The orange flame was lit again, and the five words "Expectation Battle" highlighted the team's desire for victory, while the orange sea formed by the fans will set off a frenzy again at Luneng Stadium.
After 1,241 days of waiting, the fans return home and it will all be revealed tonight who will be the scorer of the first goal of the season for the Terriers.
