In that fierce duel between Cangzhou and Taishan, the Cangzhou Lions surprisingly claimed three points, a victory that almost capped their road to relegation and gave Li Xiaopeng's coaching talent new recognition. The buzz has brought Li Xiaopeng's name to the attention of the Qingdao Sea Cowboys. Looking back at last season, the Sea Bulls tried to hire foreign coach Arsene at a low price, but strictly speaking, Arsene's coaching philosophy was outdated, and his tactical setup and field command skills were mediocre. At that time, when the Manatees were looking for Yassen to join them, Yassen's prospects seemed uncertain.
As expected, Yassen was not able to lead the team to a breakthrough during his tenure at Manatee, and even suffered a big loss in the match with Guoan. It was not until the last round of the victory over the Cangzhou Lions that Manatee completed the goal of relegation to the Chinese Super League with great difficulty. In the face of the more brutal relegation situation in the new season, Sea Bulls decided to abandon Yassen and invited Li Xiaopeng to take over the coaching whip. They are hoping that Li Xiaopeng will be the leader of Qingdao Hainiu and lead the team to finish the relegation task quickly in the new season.
