The time has arrived on April 27 before we know it. On this day, the 7th round of the Chinese Super League will be held.
Tianjin TEDA plays against Tianjin Wei at home. It is said to be an away game but both games are in Tianjin.
This is a Tianjin derby to determine who is number one in Tianjin.
Xue Yang is bound to win this game, and now he needs to prove to all Tianjin fans that Tianjin Wei is the stronger team.
Because of Tianjin TEDA's heritage, in the hearts of Tianjin fans, Tianjin Wei has always been an accessory of Tianjin TEDA.
Of course, Xue Yang also knew that a victory could not be reversed directly.
But it will definitely shake the fans, and that's enough.
Although the football atmosphere in Tianjin is not bad, Tianjin is not very big after all, and the market is only small.
Tianjin Wei now needs to establish a position in Tianjin as soon as possible and replace Tianjin TEDA's position.
However, Tianjin Wei's players are not as active as Xue Yang. They do not have Xue Yang's thoughts.
For them, this is just an ordinary league game.
And although Tianjin TEDA has good foundation, Tianjin TEDA is not strong this season.
Currently ranked last in the standings, everyone at Tianjin Guard believes that this game is not a big problem.
Many Tianjin fans came to the scene today, and of course most of them are Tianjin TEDA fans.
Now Tianjin TEDA is in a difficult moment, and they hope Tianjin Wei can send some warmth.
Xue Yang is already used to the mentality of Tianjin fans.
When Jiang Bin was still in Tianjin Wei, Tianjin TEDA hoped to bring Jiang Bin in. Most Tianjin fans hoped that Tianjin Wei could release him.
This incident made Xue Yang very helpless at the time, and he is still deeply impressed now.
Before the game started, Xue Yang made final mobilization in the locker room.
"I believe you all know the importance of today's game." Xue Yang said seriously.
When the players heard what Xue Yang said, they thought that Xue Yang was only talking about the Tianjin Derby.
They didn't think as much as Xue Yang, and they also had to consider their status in Tianjin.
"Now in the hearts of most Tianjin fans, Tianjin TEDA is still the first priority, and we Tianjin Wei are just substitutes."
"However, they don't know that our Tianjin Wei is more powerful than Tianjin TEDA and can better represent the city of Tianjin."
"So my request today is very simple, which is to win Tianjin TEDA and prove us to everyone."
Xue Yang's words boosted the players' fighting spirit a lot and made them more determined to win.
It is worth saying that it is not just the Tianjin Derby on the same day.
There is also a city derby in Guangzhou, that is the Guangzhou Derby between Guangzhou R&F and Guangzhou Evergrande.
Guangzhou Evergrande is definitely a giant in the Chinese Super League, but it’s really hard to say when facing Guangzhou R&F.
Unfortunately, the sports channel did not broadcast this game live, but Tianjin Sports Station did.
This game may not matter in other places, but it still attracts a lot of attention in Tianjin.
"Hello, audience friends! Welcome to today's game. I believe the fans have been waiting for today's game for a long time. That's right! What we bring to you today is Tianjin TEDA vs. Tianjin Wei at home." Shi Yong's opening explanation
said.
"Tianjin TEDA, as a veteran team in the Chinese Super League, is currently at the bottom of the standings. On the contrary, the newly promoted Tianjin Wei are playing well and are now ranked fourth in the standings."
"And now it seems that Tianjin Wei has the strength to continue to push forward, and maybe it can also qualify for the AFC Champions League."
"Of course the results of the competition cannot be compared based on performance, but Tianjin Wei has been really strong recently, and Tianjin TEDA is really not optimistic." Yang Wei continued to explain.
The two commentators commentating today are not optimistic about Tianjin TEDA. Previously, Tianjin Wei defeated several strong teams one after another.
They even won the Beijing-Tianjin Derby, and even Jiangsu Sainty, the runner-up in the Chinese Super League last season, was defeated by Tianjin Wei.
"First of all, let me introduce the starting lineups of both sides. First of all, Tianjin TEDA officially gave a 4-2-3-1 formation:
Goalkeeper: 25 Yang Qipeng;
Defenders: 28 Bai Yuefeng, 26 Cao Yang, 5 Li Weifeng, 15 Liao Bochao;
Midfielders: 11 Valencia, 16 Partalu, 10 Wang Xinxin, 7 Li Benjian, 9 Lima;
Forward: 31 Jovancic.”
"It can be seen that Tianjin TEDA is also determined for this game today. It started four foreign players in the hope of winning Tianjin Wei."
Guimarães, the head coach of Tianjin TEDA, also lamented that he didn't care about Tianjin Wei at all last season.
In his view, Tianjin Wei is Tianjin TEDA's younger team, but a year later it is already an opponent that Tianjin TEDA dare not underestimate.
Today he also put in a lot of effort to put on the best lineup for Tianjin TEDA.
"Then Tianjin Wei officially gave a 4-3-3 formation:
Goalkeeper: 1 Zhuang Zhongtong (59);
Defenders: 2 Ma Yuwen (68), 3 Reifer (79), 12 Yan Sha (72), 20 Qin Dabao (62);
Midfielder: 8 Qu Xuan (75), 29 Ivo (75), 16 Lu Quan (65);
In this game, Xue Yang did not start midfielder Yuan Han, but started Lu Quan.
It can be seen from Xue Yang's attitude that he is going to attack today.
As for the midfield defense, Ivo and Lu Quan can defend. As for the forward midfielder Qu Xuan, it is not that he has no defensive ability. Xue Yang actually trained his defense.
Therefore, Xue Yang is not too worried about the team's defense. The current configuration is enough.
Xue Yang looked at Tianjin TEDA's starting lineup. Although they started four foreign players, they were actually not that strong.
The most famous among them is definitely the central defender Li Weifeng. As a veteran who studied abroad, Li Weifeng is still very capable.
Secondly, Bai Yuefeng is also good, he is a good local full-back.
As for foreign aid, both players were imported from the K League.
Tianjin TEDA prefers foreign players from the K-League. Jonathan, the future K-League golden boot, later joined Tianjin TEDA.
On Tianjin TEDA's bench, Xue Yang saw a familiar figure.
He is Mao Biao, who is called "Mao Narbiao" by fans. This player is definitely a legend.
When he's in good shape, he's as good as Asao relying on foreign aid.
When the situation is bad, the man in the empty net scores but the ball misses.
In Xue Yang's memory, he saw a piece of news saying that Mao Biao broke his four-year scoring drought with a cap.
It's really scary for a forward who hasn't scored a goal in four years.
In life, Mao Biao was still very happy. He married a wealthy daughter and no longer needed to work hard.
Although he made a lot of money as a player, compared with his wife, it was far behind.
Apart from these players, the remaining players Xue Yang are relatively average.
