In a hotly contested Super League clash at the Dujiangyan Sports Center Stadium, Chengdu Rongcheng edged past Shandong Taishan with a 1-0 win. The decisive moment came at the beginning of the first half when Matheus Jussa found the goal in the 14th minute, assisted by Rômulo, which set the tone for the game. Although Shandong Taishan enjoyed a bit more possession, they struggled to convert their chances into meaningful threats, failing to register a single shot on target throughout the match.
Chengdu Rongcheng, while not dominating possession, made the most of their chances, firing a total of 17 shots, with 7 on target. The home side’s defensive resilience was evident as they absorbed Shandong’s pressure, which they were unable to break through. The match saw a flurry of yellow cards, particularly in the second half, as both teams battled fiercely for control, but it was Chengdu’s ability to hold on to their lead that ultimately secured them the three points.
As the match wore on, Shandong Taishan made several substitutions in an attempt to find an equaliser, but their efforts were thwarted by a well-organised Chengdu defence. The final whistle confirmed victory for Chengdu, marking a major confidence boost for the home side as they continue their quest for a strong league finish.
