CSL: Shandong stages a comeback, secures crucial 3 points

Shandong Wancheng won the game with a score of 2-1 against Tianjin Teda in the 20th round of the 2021 Chinese Super League (CSL) on Wednesday night.

The first half was quite balanced, but in the second half, Shandong Wancheng took advantage of their possession to open up a lead through goal from Guo Shuntian at the beginning of the second half. However, Tianjin Teda soon responded and equalized after two minutes. The game remained level until the end of regulation time when Wu Jingyu scored a late winner for Shandong Wancheng to secure a crucial 3 points for them.

Shandong Wancheng's victory marked their return to winning ways after a string of draws and losses. They have now secured 7 wins out of 14 games played so far this season, which puts them firmly in the top half of the table. This result is particularly significant as it comes after a tough period for the club, who had lost three consecutive matches before this one.

Tianjin Teda, on the other hand, remain rooted at the bottom of the table with just four wins from 16 games. Their defeat means they have now dropped into the relegation zone and will be looking to bounce back quickly if they want to avoid dropping down to the third tier of Chinese football.

Overall, Shandong Wancheng's win was a much-needed boost for their struggling campaign, while Tianjin Teda's defeat will be a blow for their hopes of avoiding relegation. Both teams will be eager to improve their performances in the coming weeks and hope that they can turn things around soon.
