on the evening of september 7, the chinese football team continued to train outside the dalian soya bay stadium. before the training began, national football players jiang shenglong and baihelam accepted media interviews. it is worth noting that only 72 hours before the second round of the top 18 match between the chinese national football team and saudi arabia kicked off, there were less than 20 media reporters on the scene. the cold reception of the chinese national football team in preparation for the game may have something to do with the team's 7-goal defeat to japan in the first round.

on the evening of the 7th, the chinese national football team conducted their second outdoor training after returning home at the barracuda bay stadium. half an hour before the training started, a beijing youth daily reporter saw some chinese and foreign assistant coaches and staff, including assistant coach tokić, playing netball. the expressions of the national team players and coaching team members generally seemed relaxed.

in an interview with the media, jiang shenglong said that after losing to the japanese team by a large margin in the first game, the whole team should get rid of the shadow of defeat as soon as possible and actively prepare for the next game. baihelam also said that they should not be immersed in the emotions of past defeats and should face the next game with saudi arabia with confidence.

on the evening of the 7th, the dalian division temporarily set up tables outside the national football training ground to issue press credentials to the media reporters who signed up to cover the china-saudi arabia match. however, by the time this training session began, about 72 hours before the china-saudi arabia match, only 16 or 17 media reporters showed up to cover the match. outside the training ground, there were no fans coming to follow the team.

a reporter from beijing youth daily learned that due to price and other factors, there are still many tickets left for the match between china and saudi arabia. this is in contrast to the situation in which tickets are hard to come by for the match at the home stadium of the yingbo team in the dalian division of the china league one (also located at the barracuda bay stadium). it seems that if the chinese national football team wants to change the situation of being coldly received, it may need to improve its own performance first to win back the hearts of the fans.

it is also understood that left back liu yang missed the training on the evening of the 7th due to physical discomfort. center back zhu chenjie, who also showed signs of physical fatigue, ran laps alone in another field accompanied by his assistant coach.
