Zhejiang edged out Dalian Zhixing FC 3-2 in a lively CFA Super League encounter, despite having only 43% possession and fewer total shots (16 to 21). The hosts were clinical when it mattered, converting two of their four big chances while Dalian Zhixing FC managed only one from two.
Wang Yudong opened the scoring in the 37th minute from Cheng Jin's assist, and Marko Tolić doubled the lead nine minutes into the second half. Dalian Zhixing FC fought back through Isnik Alimi (56') and Mao Weijie (75'), but Zhejiang regained the lead within two minutes through Felippe Cardoso's strike, set up by Qianglong Tao.
Felippe Cardoso's winner proved decisive, while Mao Weijie's goal and later booking (90') summed up a mixed afternoon for the visitors. Zhejiang's goalkeeper made five saves to keep his side ahead, and despite facing 21 shots, the hosts held on for three points.
