If nothing else, Dalian Yingbo, Guangzhou and Chongqing Tongliang Dragons will split the remaining promotion spots. The fifth to eighth place teams have a theoretical chance of survival, but it's a very slim one. Why are seventh-placed Shijiazhuang Kung Fu and fifth-placed Suzhou Dongwu doing their best to prevent Dalian Yingbo and Guangzhou from advancing? And why are the bottom-ranked Liaoning Ironmen soaring up the rankings with the addition of Li Jin Yu?
The answer is obvious. At the recent FA meeting, everyone witnessed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to overtake: once the FA takes action, many Super League teams may face a relegation crisis. No one can predict how many teams in the first division will be "accidentally overtaken", so it's crucial to seize the opportunity to score as many points as possible and improve your team's ranking at this time. This may be the reason why the teams in the first half of this round of the Central League went all out and competed fiercely. Liaoning Ironman knows the secret, otherwise why would they fight so hard? I know everything.
If three Super League teams are relegated, the top three Central League One teams will have a chance to advance. If four Super League teams are relegated, the top four teams will also be expected to advance. Therefore, at this point, striving for the top two is undoubtedly the best strategy; if we take a step back, there is also a good chance of retaining the third and fourth places. For Guangzhou, being in the top two by strength is certainly very convincing, which is a far cry from "accidentally making it to the top".
Because of this, Guangzhou Young Army is going all out to sprint. We were expected to beat Suzhou Dongwu in this round, but unfortunately, at the end of the game, we missed a great scoring opportunity to kill the opponent and missed the crucial moment to get three points. In the next round, the second and third place teams will meet again. If Guangzhou wins, the difference between the two teams will be narrowed to 2 points, which means that Guangzhou still has a great chance to turn back their opponents in the last six rounds of the game, and is expected to soar to the sky and realize their wish of overtaking the Super League.
