Shanghai Shenhua 3:2 Zhejiang Greentown FC — Informe del Partido

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystINFORME DEL PARTIDO

Xi Wu scored twice and set up the winner as Shanghai Shenhua came from behind to beat Zhejiang 3-2 in a chaotic CFA Super League encounter. The result keeps Shenhua firmly in the title chase, though they made hard work of a game they largely controlled.

Shenhua took the lead through Xi Wu’s tidy finish from Luís Asué’s pass in the 19th minute, then doubled it when Xi Wu turned home Chenjie Zhu’s cross six minutes after the interval. Zhejiang struck back swiftly: Wang Yudong headed in from Alexandru Mitriță’s cross on 66 minutes, and Marko Tolić equalised from Xu Junchi’s delivery in the 79th. But Shenhua reclaimed the lead when Rafael Ratão bundled in from close range with four minutes left, and Zhejiang’s late yellow cards for Tong Lei and Zhang Aihui could not stop the hosts.

Shenhua deserved the win, having been the better side throughout, though Zhejiang’s fightback briefly threatened an upset. CheckLive’s model clearly favoured Shenhua, and the result confirmed that prediction. There is no next fixture to look ahead to.
