Caroliners can't afford another slip-up, says coach Yeung Ching-kwong
South China take on Sun Pegasus in their third league game of the season, needing victory to keep up the pace behind leaders
South China coach Yeung Ching-kwong has warned his team of no more slip-ups when they take on rivals Sun Pegasus in the BOCG Life Premier League at Hong Kong Stadium tonight.
The Caroliners were held to a surprising 1-1 draw by bottom club Wofoo Tai Po and Yeung said he did not want another "negative result".
They have won all four of their matches so far this season and can slip further away from us in the table if they win
"We have to take this match like a cup final especially against Pegasus," said Yeung. "They have won all four of their matches so far this season and can slip further away from us in the table if they win. Everybody knows how important this match is. We will do our best to stop them."
South China have four points from two games so far.
Yeung has a good record against Sun Pegasus since becoming coach at South China last season.
Under his charge, the Caroliners beat Pegasus twice last season, in both the FA Cup and the Play-off Cup and held Pegasus to a 2-2 draw in the league.
