In an electrifying round of the Chinese Super League, Beijing Guoan reclaimed first place with a thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over Yunnan Yukun. The game got off to a rocky start when Yunnan forward Ye Chugui put Guoan on the back foot, but the response in the second half was nothing short of spectacular. Fabio Abreu leveled the score at the 55th minute after a slick pass from Zhang Yuning, and Zhang Xizhe later converted a penalty to seal the win. The match was extra special as it marked Guoan's 400th appearance at the iconic Workers Stadium in Beijing! 🎉
Over in Shanghai, Port pulled off a dramatic turnaround against Shenzhen. Li Ning opened the scoring in the ninth minute, but Shenzhen struck back to level the game with Li Xinxiang’s stunning long-range strike in the 63rd minute. Leonardo then delivered a late winner in the 77th minute, extending Port's unbeaten run to seven games.
The day’s action featured more twists as Shandong Taishan settled for a 2-2 draw against Henan after squandering a two-goal advantage, while Dalian Yingbo edged out Zhejiang 1-0—a result that snapped Zhejiang's three-match unbeaten streak and saw Dalian climb back into the top ten.
