On June 15, Beijing time, a much-anticipated 4th round match of the Chinese Super League began, with Zhejiang and Dalian People's teams meeting each other. Before the match, Dalian Ren's manager Xie Hui revealed in a press conference: "I had two encounters with Zhejiang when I coached Nantong last season, so I am quite familiar with the opponent. Their ranking doesn't match their strength and should actually be higher. From the game scene, we lost the game because the player got a red card. Therefore, we will pay great attention to this game in terms of tactics and personnel arrangement. The team coached by Jordy is one of the few opponents that Nantong's stats don't favor, and we will definitely do our best to prepare for this game."
Regarding the team's distance from tactical perfection, Xie Hui said, "This is not a simple math problem, soccer is far more complicated than math. If we compare Henan to a mathematical formula, then our record against Henan is not good. But I think it takes a long time to reach a deep understanding of tactics. Today we had an internal meeting and found many problems that need to be improved, but we are still far from perfection. I want to emphasize that we can't separate fitness from tactics, it's a misunderstanding. It's not just a question of fitness."
Talking about the role of the veteran players, Xie Hui said, "These players have not been properly recognized for a long time and I am not sure why. But now it can be seen that they deserve this kind of strength and also deserve to show their level on the highest platform." (Sohu Sports Pei Li)
