The Foshan Southern Lions, which moved from Dongguan to Foshan in the new season, both started with a draw. Coach Antonic said before the game that the team was suffering from injuries and the lineup would be adjusted passively. Among them, foreign forward Alfred will be injured. Two months have been a heavy blow to the team.
This campaign can be described as a wave of ups and downs for Foshan team coach Antonic. Both teams adopted a high-pressure press in the first half, and the game was played in a rapid transition between offense and defense, which also led to many mistakes by both sides. In the 37th minute, the Guangzhou team took the lead to break the deadlock and launched an offensive from the right. Wang Shijie hit captain Hou Yu, who fired a left-footed shot from the top of the penalty area into the lower right corner of the goal. Afterwards, Foshan team defender Yao Xilong suffered a serious cruciate ligament injury while defending and left the field. The foreign central defender Maslachi's wonderful overhead kick in the stoppage time of the first half was also ruled offside by the referee. In the second half, veteran Zhao Mingjian retired due to injury again, which made the Foshan South Lions even worse. Coach Antonic could only helplessly shake his head on the sidelines.
In the face of adversity, the Foshan team, which was full of injured soldiers, showed resilience and tenaciously equalized the score in a passive situation. In the 71st minute, Foshan South Lions took a free kick on the right side of the front court. After Guangzhou team goalkeeper Huo Shenping hit the ball, midfielder Wu Junjie headed the ball to clear the ball, but the ball flew into the penalty area by mistake. Foshan team laughed at this "own goal" A big gift, forward Song Runtong didn't wait for the ball to hit the ground, turned around and volleyed to equalize the score. In the end, the two sides shook hands and made a draw.
After the game, Guangzhou team’s foreign central defender Sada Uskas said that coach Salvador emphasized the need to control the ball more, avoid high-altitude balls, and control the ball at the feet, but the team did not handle the details well in the second half and made mistakes. . Although he was slightly disappointed with the result, Sardauskas expressed his gratitude to the Guangzhou fans who were present: "They are the 12th man of the team. No matter when we are in trouble or in good times, they continue to support us and make us full of strength. ."
