Q: In the league, Dalian renren lost a big score against Haigang, did the next game focus more on defense?
Jose: The league score has nothing to do with the cup, they are really better in the league, the manager is better. But for us, a 5-0 league defeat is more watery, after the first goal, the second third goal has moisture, and if we go into the half with a 0-1 score, we should be more sure of the next game and play a better counter-attack.
