A Round 18 bye was in full swing. Shanghai Harbour Team faced Chengdu Rongcheng in Dalian Sports Center Stadium. After a fierce battle, Shanghai Harbor Team won 3-0 and moved up to the third place in the table, while Chengdu Rongcheng Team failed to win for two consecutive rounds. After the match, Chengdu Rongcheng's head coach Xu Zhengyuan attended the press conference.
Seo Jung Won lamented in the press conference, "Today's match was a great pity overall. As I mentioned before, our team is currently facing a lot of difficulties. In sports competition, insufficient training may lead to player injuries. I think we should be fully prepared in the shortest possible time. I think that the players who took the field today gave their best. However, we haven't had a joint practice for a while and have been playing away from home, and the players have been traveling by plane more often, which may also lead to fatigue or injury. However, for the upcoming matches, we need to give our best in every game and gradually restore the team's self-confidence."
Talking about his feelings about the game, Seaport player Kim Dang-woo said, "In today's game, we did not play out our skills and tactics. After conceding the first goal, the team was also not in good shape and a bit impatient, which led us to concede goals one after another and eventually lost the game."
