Recalling the attack after the game, Pan Peixuan said: “I almost caught up with it, and I am a little disappointed. I can grasp it better next time.” He also commented that his performance in this game is acceptable and needs to be improved: “I think the performance is still good.

The latter is his predecessor no matter in the club or the Hong Kong football team. Learn more and it’s better not to replace him next time because it’s very rare to play with him.”
It was also his first game, and Ai Hua, who came off the field for the Hong Kong Football Team just four days after receiving the SAR passport, played for nearly half an hour.
