Li Jinyu, who won three wins and one draw in the last four league games after taking charge of the Ironmen, said: "The whole team has come out of the trough of the first half of the league and proved with better and better form that we can fully believe in ourselves and play better football. ”
During the second transfer period, the addition of strong domestic and foreign aids such as Carlos, the golden boot of the Portugal First Division and Ivory Coast striker Anyien, greatly increased the strength of the Liaoning Iron Man, especially after Li Jinyu was in danger, bringing a new technical and tactical style of play and mental outlook to the team. After three weeks of training during the Paris Olympics, the new squad has been more fully integrated, and this battle against Nanjing City, which is ranked higher than itself, is a comprehensive test of Liaoning Iron Man.
In the historical head-to-head record with the Nanjing team, Liaoning Iron Man (including the predecessor) has 1 win, 3 draws and 3 losses in the previous 7 games, and is completely inferior. In this game, Liaoning Iron Man showed an extremely good competitive state: on the defensive side, except for the 16th minute when the defense leaked and let the away team score a goal, the opponent was not given a good chance to shoot in the whole game; On the offensive side, Liaoning Iron Man's goals were all wonderful, including An Yien's beautiful header, Carlos's difficult turning volley from outside the penalty area, and Bangben Yiyu's exquisite corner kick with his teammates and a clever shot into the net...... In the end, Ahn Yien scored twice, and Carlos, Bangmoto Yiyu and Nguyen Chi Long each scored a goal, and the Ironmen won 5-1.

During the game, more than 16,000 fans cheered, and the Shenyang Olympic Sports Center Stadium turned into a sea of joy, and the waves of people set off in the stands again and again. There is a reason for the excitement of fans, since the 2020 Chinese League, whether it is the predecessor Liaoning Shenyang City Team, or the Liaoning Iron Man team, although it has won 3-0 times, it has never had a goal record of more than 4 goals in a single game, inadvertently, on the evening of August 17, Liaoning Iron Man rewrote the history of the team.
At the moment when the final whistle blew, Li Jinyu just celebrated briefly with the players, and did not seem very excited. At the post-match press conference, Li Jinyu still said in a very low-key manner: "The team is slowly entering a new track. In such a hot weather, there are so many fans who came to the scene to cheer for us, thank you for your support and care for us. I still say the same - victory is not arrogant, defeat is not discouraged. Even if we achieve such a victory, it will only be part of a long march for our work. ”
In fact, it is not easy for Liaoning Iron Man to break two team history records in Nanjing City, how did Li Jinyu and his team members do it? Li Jinyu revealed a small detail: "In this competition, our team members wore electronic vests equipped with chips for the first time to compete. I looked at the stats after the game and the players were running long distances, including the substitutes, which shows that we were the more proactive side in the game. I would like to thank the players for their dedication in training and in competitions, as long as they give it off. ”
Talking about the training during this interval, Li Jinyu said: "In the previous three weeks of training, I was more demanding and demanding of the players, but I believe they can feel that through today's competition, everyone will feel that my demanding requirements will help them in their careers." The whole team showed better skills and tactics, which made our attack and defense more comprehensive and excellent. ”
In the next round of the league, Liaoning Iron Man will challenge the fourth-ranked Suzhou Dongwu away, which is also the first time that Li Jinyu has led the team to play away from home. In this regard, he said, "There will be different tactics at home and away, and away we will put more emphasis on defense to test the team's ability to withstand pressure. In the last four home games, we have played relatively well, but it will not be easy away from home, so we must be prepared to face huge difficulties. ”
Finally, Li Jinyu also talked about his concept of leading the team: "After I took over, I told the players that there is still better football waiting for them, and there is a better environment waiting for them. I think it's not just about how much you get better at football, it's about being a player who is respected. There is still a lot of things we are looking for, and you have to believe that there is more wonderful football waiting for us. ”
