After six rounds of the new season of the Chinese Super League, Tianjin Teda ranked sixth in the standings. Especially in the past 4 games, the unbeaten record of 3 wins and 1 draw has increased the popularity of Tianjin Teda team a lot. However, coach Stielik is also well aware of the difficulties that follow. The next round opponent is the strong defending champion Shanghai SIPG, and it is still uncertain who will guard the gate for Tianjin TEDA team.
Yang Qipeng and Du Jia were injured one after another, which Was described by Stielik as a "disaster": "There are a lot of injured goalkeepers at the moment, it is really very difficult, like a disaster. But we're not at the worst. If we had registered four goalkeepers in the early days of the league, there would have been no such difficulty. "From the current situation, Yang Qipeng will definitely be absent for a long time." Du Jia, who had recovered from his shoulder injury, had a cold and fever at this time and did not come to the training ground yesterday. Of course, there are still a few days to go before the match against Shanghai SIPG, and if Du Jia can recover in time, I believe that there is still great hope for playing in the Battle of Tianjin and Shanghai.
In yesterday's public training, in addition to Teng Shangkun, the young goalkeeper of the reserve team, Hu Haoran, began to train with a team due to his recent good performance. Stielik said: "By watching the reserve team matches, I feel that Hu Haoran is a very promising player. In addition, Wagner did not appear on the training ground because of his own adjustment of his body, and Jonathan, who was injured, continued to recover alone.
According to the current plan, Tianjin Teda will play again in the fourth round of the FA Cup on April 30 after the match against Shanghai SIPG on April 28, playing at home against Zibo Keju. In three days of two matches, Stilik said he would play in the FA Cup with another set of squads. Reporter Xu Guoxi
