The Home Finale
It’s not going to surprise you to hear that we absolutely destroyed Shanxi Longjin in our final home match.
We won, 7-0. Mueanta had a hat trick, Rovaglia almost had a hat trick, and everybody played well.
Zhu Bin set the pace by scoring inside the first 15 seconds, though it was brought back for being offside. Yes, that’s right: we could have scored even more if we had a bit more luck.
We’ve only got one more league match now. The perfect season dream is alive.
Injury Crisis
We really have an injury crisis brewing. It has me worried about the Chinese FA Cup Final in a week and a half.
Paul Wade is the latest to be injured. He’s been excellent in that defensive midfielder role. I’m not sure what we’re going to do without him.
Without Wade and Pak Myong-Song, the anchors of our defense are going to be missing.
None of these injuries were caused in matches, either. They’re all training related. This is surprising, as we’ve been relatively injury free all season. Perhaps the football gods are angry with us.
Or maybe somebody else will step up.
Season Finale
Our final game in the Chinese Second Division North is a road match against Yantai Yintai.
Yantai Yintai are the worst team in the league, and have somehow only managed 12 points in 45 matches.
This one should be a breeze. The big question is that Chinese FA Cup Final match.
