On the afternoon of May 16th, the 11th round of the final stage of the 2025/2026 Sichuan City Football League ("Chuanchao") kicked off. The Nanchong Silk Source Point team was stationed at the Huafeng Campus Stadium of Xihua Normal University and hosted the Liangshan Good Doctors team at home. Nanchong team was tied with Liangshan team after leading by two goals, and the two sides eventually shook hands and drew 2-2.

At the beginning of the game, the Nanchong team quickly got into shape. In the 6th minute, the team sent a brilliant shot from outside the penalty area, and the ball went straight into the corner of the goal, giving Nanchong a 1-0 lead. In the 30th minute, Nanchong team had another good opportunity and broke through the penalty area to win the penalty. The Nanchong team has once again widened the score to 2:0.

Yi Bian fought again, and Liangshan team adjusted their tactics, launching a counterattack with set pieces. In the 63rd and 78th minutes, Liangshan team took advantage of free kick opportunities in the front court to score twice. After 90 minutes, Nanchong Silk Source Point team drew 2-2 with Liangshan Good Doctor team at home.

The 2-goal lead was equalized, and the game was full of ups and downs. The home fans were also instantly excited, and the team's morale was high. However, before the start of the competition, a unique cultural performance that integrates intangible cultural heritage, heroic spirit, and urban brand display was equally exciting.

The provincial-level intangible cultural heritage program from Xichong, "Stone Workers' Chants," made its debut on the Sichuan Super League stage, beating the drums with its resounding and powerful labor chant, allowing nearly 9000 on-site fans to experience the unique cultural charm of intangible cultural heritage. Then, General Ji Xin led a hundred armored phalanx to the green field and performed "Heroes Casting Souls", which ignited the entire audience. The third performance once again shocked the whole audience - Xichong County brought the renowned "Peach Blossom IP" from Northeast Sichuan into the green field. 100 actors held high fidelity peach blossoms and wore gradually changing pink dresses, and performed a dance called "Peach Rhyme Brocade" to give a "gentle blow" to the hardcore football match.

When intangible cultural heritage meets football, the struggle on the green field intertwines with the unity in the labor anthem and the loyalty and bravery of General Ji Xin. Beyond football, it also showcases the spirit of unity, resilience, hard work, and civilization of a city. In the next game, Nanchong will challenge the overall strong Leshan Taste Very team away from home in Leshan. (Yi Qinghai Tang Min)
