According to the official report of Changchun Yatai Football Club, on the afternoon of July 11th, Changchun Yatai completed their final training session before departing for Shanghai, kicking off the second leg of their “four consecutive away games” in July’s challenging schedule. On July 13th at 8 PM, the Yatai Warriors will travel to Shanghai Stadium to face Shanghai Shenhua, their opponent in the 19th round of the 2024 Huarun Yibao Chinese Super League.
On May 10th, head coach Xie Hui led Changchun Yatai back to Shanghai for the first time. However, as he had just taken over the team, Changchun Yatai lost 2-5 to Shanghai SIPG. 63 days later, Xie Hui returns to Shanghai to challenge his hometown team. High temperatures will pose the biggest challenge for the Yatai Warriors.
In fact, during the second break of the league, Changchun Yatai played a friendly match against Shanghai Shenhua in Shanghai.
In the previous away game, the Yatai Warriors fought tooth and nail, overcoming the scorching heat of Tianjin to score two goals in a row and earn a point. This trip to Shanghai will see the Yatai Warriors facing a major test from the hot and humid weather.
Due to the three consecutive away games, Changchun Yatai will be traveling from north to south over 10 days, covering Shanghai, Tianjin, and Shenzhen without returning to Changchun for preparation. On the 17th, the Yatai Warriors will return to Tianjin to face Tianjin Jinmen Tiger in the FA Cup 1/8 finals. On the 21st, they will head to Shenzhen to face their opponents in the 24th round of the Chinese Super League, Shenzhen New Pengcheng.
