For the 3-0 loss score, Jose said it was in the normal category, but was very dissatisfied with the team's first half of the goal conceded, "In the end, this score did reflect the performance of both teams, our starting goalkeeper will be lacking in terms of delaying the pace of the game, but the first half Harbor did not have too many shots, our loss should not have happened, but the opponent played better in the second half and won some opportunities through set-pieces. ”
In Jose's view, it was Dalian's frequent mistakes that gave Harbor a 3-0 lead, "Overall, Harbor didn't get too many opportunities in normal attack, but our mistakes gave the opponent a chance, the first half of the goal really shouldn't be, if we can keep the 0-0 score to the midfield, we may still have a chance." ”

In addition, Jose said that Harbour's playing style is the team closest to Europe in the Chinese Super League, "Harbor is a good team, they have a good manager, they are the team closest to Europe in the Chinese Super League. It's also normal for our young players to be moved by their opponents all the time on the pitch, I can't remember how many U23 players have played, these are opportunities for them to learn. ”
