At the pre-match press conference for Shanghai Port's away game against Yunnan Yukun in Round 19 of the Chinese Super League, head coach Kevin Muscat spoke about the team's preparations.
Muscat said he was pleased to be in Yunnan for the away fixture. He noted that the previous round had been postponed due to a typhoon to ensure safety, which gave the team more time to recover and prepare. He said he believes the squad is in good condition and well prepared, and hopes they can produce a strong performance and return to Shanghai with all three points.
Defender Wei Zhen, who also attended the press conference, said the team arrived in Yunnan yesterday. Although the previous match was postponed because of the weather, he said the squad had continued to prepare actively during this period. He added that he hopes tomorrow's match will flow more smoothly, with more effective playing time than the last game, so the fans can enjoy a high-quality contest.
