Tianjin Jinmen Tiger took all three points with a 2-0 win away to Shanghai Shenhua, despite seeing much less of the ball. Shenhua had 58% possession and fired 16 shots to Tianjin's 11, but could not find the net.
The only goal recorded came in the 74th minute when Bruno Xadas finished from a Ji Shengpan assist to make it 0-1. The visitors defended resolutely after that, and while the second goal is not detailed in the timeline, the scoreline confirms Tianjin added another later.
Tianjin goalkeeper made six saves to keep a clean sheet, while Shenhua's keeper only faced two shots on target. Fan Yang was booked early on for the home side, but the hosts' dominance in possession and chances counted for nothing.
