CHONGQING, March 3 (Xinhua) -- "What a crazy game that finally we drew the game for 2-2, the last-minute goal earned us a precious point," Chongqing STM Motors football club's coach Jordi Cruijff commented after the first game of Chinese Super League (CSL) on Saturday in new season.

"It was a pity that a turnover was made after we took a lead at 1-0, and Guangzhou R&F caught up with the points and instead surpassed. Both sides had a few chances to score, and to be honest the opposition had more. Our team fought till the very end and they finally got the payoff, the attitude to the game deserved merit. However, lots of improvements need to be done," added Cruijff.

"Guangzhou is really good at offense, so we have to enhance our defense line to withstand them. And no matter win or lose, I need find ways to solve the problems rather than blame any of my player, as we are a team, and we all share the results.

"Generally speaking, I'm satisfied with their performance. Obviously some of our young players lack experience in the top flight league, they will gradually get used to the pace in the coming games," added the Dutchman. Enditem
