中超第8輪比賽，上海海港主場1-3不敵成都蓉城，遭遇賽季首場敗局。作為中超衛冕冠軍，上海海港在8輪比賽（少賽一場）過後以4勝2平1負的戰績積14分暫居聯賽第4位，落後領頭羊上海申花6分。而對手成都蓉城則憑藉這場比賽，躍升至聯賽第2位，僅落後申花3分。

Shanghai Port suffered a complete defeat at home in this campaign, and their dominance in the league has dropped significantly. After the game, media person Li Xuan wrote on social media: "Although the harbor did not consume much in the last game, this game still lost 3-0 to Chengdu Rongcheng, this season's harbor is not invincible, but unfortunately some teams just don't want to fight." ”

Obviously, Li Xuan's "some teams don't want to fight" refers to the Tianjin Jinmen Tigers. In the last round, Shanghai Port faced Tianjin Jinmen Tigers away from home. As a result, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers rotated the lineup on a large scale at home and directly sent the all-Chinese team to start. Head coach Yu Genwei's employment and game strategy has been questioned by many outsiders. Shanghai Port, on the other hand, had little trouble beating the unbeaten Jinmen Tigers on the road.

Outside of this game, the Jinmen Tigers are directly on the cusp of public opinion. In this round of the game, Tianjin Jinmen Tigers faced Zhejiang at home, and they won the opponent 0-0 at home. From the perspective of the Jinmen Tigers, Yu Genwei's strategy in the last round was right. Against the backdrop of a two-game week, the team's main squad has been rested. Facing the Zhejiang team, which is not much different in strength, Jinmen Tiger won the opponent 0-0.

It's just that this approach of the Jinmen Tigers makes many fans of the Chinese Super League team feel disdainful, because it involves a fair competition issue. The Jinmen Tigers have their own difficulties in giving 1 points to Haigang at home, but Chengdu Rongcheng showed their ambition and ambition by beating Shanghai Port 0-0 away. As it turns out, Shanghai Port has not been invincible this season.
