Today in Dalian football history: In 1999, Dalian Wanda lost to Shandong Taishan for the first time in team history after a fruitless attack (August 15)

At 15:35 on the afternoon of August 15, 1999, a match of the 19th round of the Jia A League (Wanchi Note: the predecessor of the Chinese Super League) was staged at the Jinzhou Stadium. The defending champion Dalian Wanda Shide (Shide was given a new name at the end at that time) played at home against their fellow team Shandong Luneng Taishan.

Dalian Wanda had a bad year that year. The main striker was suspended, foreign aid introduction was unsuccessful, and many veterans were plagued by injuries. The poor start led to the dismissal of Shanghai coach Xu Genbao. After the coach Li Yingfa took over, the record was only slightly improved, but they were still fighting for relegation. Before this game, both teams had suffered two consecutive draws, but Shandong Luneng, coached by Santara, won five consecutive games before the two consecutive draws and saw hope of winning the championship.

Both teams sent out their strongest lineups. Let's take a look at the starting lineup, substitutes and non-substitutes.

Dalian Wanda Shide: 1-Han Wenhai; 30-Sun Jihai, 2-Zhang Enhua, 16-Ji Mingyi, 28-Wu Jun (61st minute, 5-Xu Hong); 6-Li Ming (83rd minute, 18-Wang Feng), 15-Nemchek, 8-Wang Peng, 14-Pete; 10-Orlando, 20-Xiao Wang Tao (46th minute, 11-Yan Song).
