Yesterday evening, Zhejiang Army started the first warm-up match in Foshan in preparation for the journey, and the victory was not only a celebration of the success of the Super League, but also a warm-up for the upcoming "foreign war". Facing Qingdao Fanghua Island, a newcomer to the Central League, Zhejiang won a 2:1 victory with goals from Evolo and Long Wei.
Looking back at last December 30th, Qingdao Fanghua Island beat Beijing Polytechnic 7-6 in a thrilling penalty shootout in the second round of the 2021 season's Central League A and B elevation playoffs, not only winning the fourth place in the Central League B, but also obtaining a ticket for the 2022 season's Central League A.

Despite being a new force in the Central League, Qingdao Fanghua Island has been quite impressive. In last week's warm-up match, they surprisingly drew 1:1 with Chinese Super League team Guangzhou City.
And the consecutive rainy weather had an impact on the field in Foshan.

In the end, goals from Evolo and Long Wei helped the team win 2:1, with Evolo scoring his first goal since joining Zhejiang.

Starting next Monday, the Zhejiang team will welcome the challenge of Guangxi Pingguo Ha Loud and Clear, another Central League One newcomer. During the warm-up period in Foshan, they will also play warm-up matches against Guangzhou and Wuhan Sanzhen.
