Qilu.com·Lightning News July 14th Shandong TV Sports Channel reported that the Chinese Super League plans to resume the home and away game format from the second stage in early August, and Taishan team may return to their home court. It is reported that a delegation from the Chinese Football Association recently inspected the Jinan Olympic Sports, and conducted an on-site investigation of the relevant conditions at the Shandong Taishan team's home court, especially the venue, turf and other hardware facilities. Today, reporters from Shandong TV Sports Channel came to the Jinan Olympic Sports Center Stadium to learn about the preparations of the stadium.

Since the Jinan Olympic Sports Center Stadium is open to the public, the venue has been undergoing regular maintenance. The reporter saw on site that daily maintenance work in the stadium was in place and the turf was in good condition. According to the staff, the weather is hot in summer, so the turf is watered every day, trimmed every two days, and fertilized regularly. In addition, the stadium stands and auditoriums also show signs of renovation and construction.

The last time Jinan Olympic Sports Center Luneng Stadium hosted a major football match was the FA Cup group stage last year. There are still promotional slogans for the 2021 FA Cup in the stadium. In addition, banners and advertisements on the guardrails of the stands have been removed. The reporter saw Taishan Club staff inspecting the venue in the stadium. The staff revealed that they will next need to do facility maintenance and make relevant preparations for the team to return to the home court.

Afterwards, the reporter went to the home team lounge. The team’s family portrait from last season was posted in the corridor of the Taishan team’s lounge area. The graffiti on the corridor wall was spray-painted by the Taishan team in the 19th season. The last time Luneng Stadium hosted a Chinese Super League match was in the 29th round of the Chinese Super League on November 27, 2019. The Taishan team defeated Tianjin Teda 3-1 at home. Since the Chinese Super League matches in the last two seasons have been conducted on a tournament basis, the old team logo and banners of the Taishan team in the lounge have not been replaced.

Currently, the Taishan team is on vacation and will regroup on the 19th to prepare for the second stage of the Chinese Super League. According to the plan, each Chinese Super League team must determine whether to agree to the plan to resume home and away games before July 20. By then, there will be a definite answer as to whether the Taishan team can play at home.
