In the latest pre-match promotional poster for the 23rd round of the 2024 Chinese League One (中甲联赛), the home team, Copper Dragon (重庆铜梁龙), has adopted a unique slogan: Old brother, take only the Sichuan hotpot seasoning, and leave the rest behind. This slogan, which cleverly plays on the cultural ties between Sichuan and Yunnan provinces, is set to engage fans and create a festive atmosphere for the match.
The match, which will take place on Sunday, September 15 at 7:30 PM local time, features Copper Dragon hosting Yikun (云南玉昆).

Yikun currently leads the league with 15 wins, 6 draws, and 1 loss, accumulating 51 points, while Copper Dragon sits in 4th place with 36 points from 22 matches played.
The two teams met earlier in the season, with a 1-1 draw in Yikun’s home ground. This upcoming match is particularly significant as it could impact both teams’ standings, especially with the season nearing its end. Fans and experts alike are keenly watching this encounter, with a particular interest in how it might affect Yikun’s quest for a top-three finish and Copper Dragon’s aspirations to secure a promotion spot.

Some fans are also contemplating the future, with Zhineng suggesting that Yikun should focus on securing a top-three finish to prepare for potential promotion to the Chinese Super League (中超). On the other hand, Alodi inquired if this was an AI-generated response, highlighting the unique nature of the poster’s message. Wukong520 joked that Yikun might have to wait for Copper Dragon to catch up, suggesting that Yikun might not see Copper Dragon in the top division in the near future.
The match is set to take place at Kunming Anlian-Riviera Stadium, with both teams looking to make their mark on the season. The match is part of the final six rounds of the 2024 Chinese League One, with the stakes being high for both sides.
The poster’s slogan not only serves to engage fans but also to highlight the cultural ties between Sichuan and Yunnan, which are rich in history and tradition. This unique approach to match promotion is a testament to the creativity and cultural understanding that can be found in Chinese football. As the match approaches, all eyes will be on both teams to see how they will perform, especially in light of their recent standings and the significance of this match in the overall league standings.
