In the upcoming relegation battle, Qingdao Hainiu and Shenzhen Xinpengcheng, who are caught in the whirlpool of relegation, have the same 26 points, and a win means life and death for them to take the initiative of relegation. However, if they draw or lose, they will have to rely on the "face" of other teams to decide their fate. Meanwhile, Cangzhou Lions are in the safety zone with 29 points, but they are only 3 points ahead of the relegation zone, and could fall into the abyss if they make the slightest mistake. The duel in such a background will undoubtedly be even more white-hot and even cruel. For Qingdao Hainiu, who have failed to collect any points in three consecutive matches, the challenge is even tougher. In order to turn the tide, they must resist the pressure and look for a good opportunity to break the drought. Improving efficiency, strengthening the offense, and striving for an early breakthrough has become the challenge that manager Yasen and his players need to overcome.
This relegation battle is not only a matter of life and death, but also full of many attractions. Both coaches and teams have a deep connection with each other. Qingdao Hainiu's manager Yasen was the coach of Shijiazhuang Yongchang, the predecessor of Cangzhou Lions, while Cangzhou Lions' manager Li Xiaopeng is a Qingdao hometown boy, who is returning to his hometown to fight with his team this time. It is worth mentioning that Li Xiaopeng coached Qingdao Hainiu (then known as Qingdao Zhongneng). This special emotional entanglement will undoubtedly create waves in the hearts of both coaches. But a game is a game, and as professional coaches, they can only go all out for their respective teams. In the first meeting of the season, Qingdao Hainiu beat Cangzhou Lions 1-0 on the road. This time, will they be able to achieve their relegation goal with a 1-0 win again? The answer is tonight!
