Mao Weijie recovered, Dalian midfielder did not show his true form, Xiao Liao is too difficult, 2 will not keep up with the rhythm

. This does not deny their efforts, but reality is right in front of you: in a fast-paced, high-confrontation professional league, if physical fitness, technology and game adaptability cannot keep up, it will easily become a team's shortcomings. This is not the first time that Xiao Wen’s problem at the left-back position has occurred. Fei Yu’s difficult performance in this midfield also proves that he still needs to improve in this level of confrontation.

This defeat is not so accidental, but rather a true portrayal of the team's current strength. In the absence of key cores, some players are in poor condition and are reserved, losing is almost destined to face a strong opponent. To some extent, the team did "half give up" in this game. In the second half, players like Zhao Xuebin and Cao Haiqing, who usually don't play many games, all got opportunities, which was more like making personnel reserves and state adjustments for the next tough battle. Through this defeat, the team should also have a clearer understanding of their position in the China League One and the gap with top teams.

Focusing on the next away game against Wuhan Three Towns is the strategic choice of Li Guoxu's team after weighing the trade-offs. It is undoubtedly wise to give Alimi and Labuyard two foreign players who are crucial to the team to rest and ensure that they have sufficient physical fitness when facing strong enemies. The three towns in Wuhan are strong, and this away game will be another severe test for Dalian Yingbo. There is also a positive signal in this game, that is, the team has successively activated three post-05 players. This shows that while the team pursues short-term results, it is also focusing on the future and attaching importance to the cultivation and training of young players. Giving these young players the opportunity to feel the atmosphere and accumulate experience in a high-level professional arena is crucial to their growth. Although he was suppressed by his opponent in the first half, after tactical adjustments in the second half, the team still made some threatening attacks.

Overall, this failure is a painful reality test. It exposes the team's excessive dependence on core foreign players, the inability of some domestic players to adapt to the high-intensity game rhythm, and the obvious shortcomings in the defense line. It is so difficult to operate without Alimi's midfielder; Liao's struggle is a reflection of the fragility of this system; the fatigue of veterans is the renewal problem that the team must face. But Mao Weijie's recovery, the appearance of young players, and the strategic layout of the next key battle all show that the team has not been defeated by this failure. I hope this game can bring profound reflection to the team and find a solution to the problem. After all, on the stage of China League One, everyone will have ups and downs. The key is how to learn from failure and then stand up again.
