After the game, Liaoning Ironman captain Kunimoto Yiyu updated social media, posting a photo of himself and his wife holding the Chinese League Championship medal, and wrote a text to thank his wife. Yiyu Kunimoto wrote:

won the championship successfully. I have experienced a lot along the way. Although we have been together less and separated more, you have supported me as always. Thank you very much.

After meeting my wife, my thoughts on football have changed. It is really great to be able to give you a championship as a gift.

Really, thank you for your efforts.

Before joining the Ironman, Kunimoto Yoshihiro had a "bad record". Although he was famous in Japan for his outstanding talent when he was young, he was also a problem player. He was expelled from the Urawa Red Diamonds youth training for misconduct in 2014, and was fired by the Fukuoka Hornets for assaulting a teammate in 2017. After the contract was terminated, he moved to the K-League and was terminated by Jeonbuk Hyundai in 2022 due to drunk driving. It was also revealed that he had long been in arrears with Korean National Health Insurance fees (according to relevant Korean policies, those who hold alien registration certificates and stay for more than 6 months are required to compulsorily pay Korean National Health Insurance).

After joining the Liaoning Ironmen in 2024, he worked hard and gradually became the team's main force. This season, he is in excellent form. In 28 league games for the Liaoning Ironmen, he scored 4 goals and assisted 17 times. He is the team's well-deserved core midfielder.
