Special news of Beijing Youth Daily from Guangzhou: Yesterday afternoon, Guangzhou Yuexiu Hill Football Field of 60 years witnessed again the historic moment when Guangzhou Football Team returned to Chinese Premier League. Gao Lin, the player of the national team played a hat trick with kicks and a heading, helping Guangzhou Evergrande Team defeat Hunan Xiangtao Team at 3:1 and become the champion of Chinese Series-A League. In addition, Evergrande Team has begun to prepare for the surreal target: to win the champion of Asia Champion League in five years.
The performance of Evergrande Team was outstanding in this competition season of China Series-A League. A series of proud figures created several bests: it remained undefeated for 21 consecutive rounds, it scored 61 goals, Gao Lin became the king of shooters in a single competition season with 20 goals, and Evergrande Team defeated Nanjing Yoyo Team at the highest score of 10:0……
What is more surprising is that the investment in Evergrande Club this competition season exceeds one hundred million yuan, which is extremely rare even in Chinese Premier League. In addition, the Club said that the investment in the next competition season would be even more. As for the expectation for the future, Hui Ka Yan, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Evergrande, expressly said that the mid-term target of the Club is to win the champion of Asia Champion League in five years, but the short-term target is to try to win the fourth place and to guarantee the sixth place in Chinese Premier League next year. As for foreign players, the Club has planned to introduce four foreign players more expensive than Muriqui (3.5 million USD) of this year to play in Chinese Premier League.
The competition season of Chinese Series-A League finally came to an end and the audiences dispersed. Chengdu Blades Team was also qualified again for Chinese Premier League with Evergrande Team. The level of Nanjing Yoyo Team unfortunately dropped due to its internal disorder. Two Beijing teams, namely, Eight Happiness Team and North Polytechnic University Football Team, successfully kept their levels.
