In the soccer field where many variables are intertwined, many tournaments, due to various reasons, it is difficult to activate the three foreign aid lineup configuration, which in turn triggers the uncertainty of the fluctuation of the performance.
Inside Soccer City, the power of unity has coalesced into a synergy that cannot be ignored, with all the players working together with one mind and one heart. Their management team - investor Wang Kui, general manager Chen Dong and first-team skipper Li Guoxu - worked closely together, each in their own way, to push forward. With unremitting efforts and a touch of good luck, Dalian Yingbo's record far exceeded expectations, finishing in second place with 54 points, a whopping five points ahead of Guangzhou.
Nonetheless, Dalian Yingbo seems to have a foot in the door of the Chinese Super League, but Guangzhou still holds two cards and the suspense is still unresolved.
Guangzhou's first card is a much better history against other teams, giving them a higher ranking with equal points. The second card is the relative advantage of the schedule. In the last two rounds of the tournament, Guangzhou will meet the challenge of Yanbian Longding at home, followed by an away match against Nanjing City. These two teams, both with 31 points and ranked ninth and tenth in the table respectively, have already secured relegation and lack a strong desire to compete. Guangzhou is expected to win all of their matches with ease and consolidate their lead with a six-point advantage. On the contrary, Dalian Yingbo will face Yunnan Yukun on the road in the 29th (penultimate) round and return to Dalian Barracuda Bay Professional Football Stadium to face Shanghai Jiading Huilong in the final round.
Yunnan Yukun is more powerful than Dalian Yibo, and since this is their last home game of the season, the highland environment will give them an extra advantage, and it will not be easy for Dalian Yibo to get three points on the road. If they can't grab a point on the road in the plateau, they will have to beat Shanghai Jiading Huilong in the final round at the Barracuda Bay Professional Soccer Stadium in Dalian. As long as they can grab a point, they must at least stay undefeated in the final round. The enthusiastic support of their hometown fans will be the driving force, but at the same time, it may also bring great psychological pressure to the players.
For Dalian, keeping a low profile and adjusting the mentality of both the club and its fans is a top priority. Encouraged by the success of sister team Dalian Kuncheng in reaching the first division, we expect Dalian Yingbo to reach their goal as well. Go Dalian! May good luck always be with Dalian!
