Frankly speaking, this season's Yunnan Yukun Club has been a difficult one. At the beginning of the season, the negative news of allegedly improper transactions made Yunnan Yukun hesitate at the threshold of the league. The executives were desperate, after all, they had spent a whopping 80 million dollars on the season. The team urgently hired former international star Li Jin Yu to take charge of the coaching staff, and brought in powerful foreign aid Mu Xiekui from the Chinese Super League's Zhejiang team. Everything was ready, but suddenly heard the news that the club is not in the league, the senior management had to rush to the Football Association for public relations. In the end, Yunnan Yukun managed to break through and not only gained a ticket to the Sentinel League, but also won the qualification to participate in the China A-League.
Since the start of the season, Yunnan Yukun has shown strong catching up momentum. However, the sudden departure of Li Jinyu made fans doubly worried. With the arrival of former Hong Kong China Men's soccer team head coach Anderson, the team has gradually stabilized. In the 26th round of the tournament, Yunnan Yukun finally realized the dream of overtaking.
Even though the team has already locked up the Chinese Super League qualification, their ambitions go far beyond that. Yunnan Yukun also harbor dreams of winning the championship. In the standings, they hold a 12-point lead over Dalian Yingbo, even though there is still a game to be played between the two teams. Yunnan Yukun has yet to lock up the Central League title early, but with a point in their remaining matches, they will be able to lock up the title early!
Congratulations to Yunnan Yukun on their success in the Super League! Congratulations to Yunnan soccer for once again welcoming a top team! Let's look forward to it together!
