Due to harbour withdrawal, there was a team bye in each round of group J matches. In the just-concluded group game 3, Jie Zhi and Chiang Rai United met, and in the first leg of the two sides, Jie Zhi scored a valuable 3 points with Ruslan's winning goal, so this meeting was a life and death battle for Chiang Rai United, and once he lost, he would be eliminated. In the game, Chiang Rai United played proactively, the two sides did not adapt too much, came up is hard to meet, both ends of the attack and defense have a chance, in the first half of injury time, Chiang Rai United by Beathiva took the lead to break, 1 goal lead into the half-time.
In the second half, Jie Zhi began to counterattack, the old Chinese Super League player Alex scored a goal in the 54th minute, the two sides returned to the same running line, another old Chinese Super League player Deyang scored a header in the 69th minute to help Jie Zhi complete the counterattack, Chiang Rai United became a anxious side, Enban equalized in the 78th minute, but only 2 minutes later, Luo Zijun completed the kill, and finally Jie Zhi doubled Chiang Rai United, the group stage 2 wins and 1 loss accumulated 6 points, only 1 point behind Kobe Victory Ship, ranked second in the group, and Chiang Rai United 1 point at the bottom, and Chiang Rai United 1 point at the bottom, Already out early.
It is worth mentioning that the 40-year-old veteran De Young completed the 41st goal of the AFC Champions League, breaking his AFC Champions League goal record and sitting on the throne of the all-time goalscorer in the history of the AFC Champions League. Jiezhi's current qualifying situation is very good, according to the requirements of the AFC Champions League, the 3 best teams in the second group will advance to the quarterfinals, which reduces the difficulty of Jiezhi's qualification, and also holds the initiative in his own hands, as long as he draws in the last round of the group, Kobe Victory Ship can ensure the top 8 seats, of course, even if it is a small loss, there is also a possibility of qualifying, in short, the outside world is more optimistic about Jiezhi to advance to the top 8.
