The day before yesterday, the warm-up match between Jinmun Tigers and Gwangju FC ended in a 1:1 draw, and as an ordinary fan, I am actually quite satisfied with this result. After all, Gwangju FC finished third in the K-League last season and should not be underestimated. This game is also the most well-organized game during the preparation of the Jinmen Tigers, and it seems that the team attaches great importance to this preparation.
The Jinmen Tigers returned to Tianjin after South Korea's training, and coach Yu Genwei also summarized the preparations. He mentioned that there are a lot of changes in the team, but I think it's a new start for the team. Looking back at the performance of the Jinmen Tigers in the past few seasons, from the special circumstances of the 2021 season, to the gradual completion of the 2022 season, and then to the strong continuity of the 2023 season, it can be seen that the team is gradually improving. Although the personnel adjustment in the 2024 season does not match the future goals, I believe that this is the team's active adjustment according to its own budget for better development in the future.
As for the results in the warm-up matches, although not particularly ideal, the team played against teams from multiple leagues during the preparation period, which was very helpful for the players to accumulate experience and run in the team. Every game has its purpose and requirements, and I think that's the most important thing is that the players feel the change in the team through the game. There is no frustration, only harvest and growth.
Although the replacement of foreign aid this winter involved a lot of energy, I felt the affirmation of the new foreign aid from the words of coach Yu Genwei. They not only have a high level of professionalism and a strong sense of integration, but also their personal abilities and characteristics are slowly showing. This is undoubtedly good news for the team, after all, football is a team sport, and mutual understanding and trust between players is the key to winning the game.
As a fan, I'm looking forward to the future of the Tigers. The new season is all about adjusting and preparing for better development, and although there may be challenges on the road, I believe that as long as we work together, there are no difficulties that cannot be overcome. We look forward to a better performance in the new season and more exciting games for us!
