Beijing Guoan clinched a 2-0 home win over Shandong Taishan, while Chengdu Rongcheng seized a 4-0 victory against Cangzhou Mighty Lions in the Chinese Super League (CSL) on Sunday.

Samuel Adegbenro and Fabio Abreu scored in quick succession to help Beijing establish a 2-0 lead after just five minutes. Shandong spent the rest of the match trying to strengthen their offense but failed to turn things around.

"We know Shandong is a very tough team, so we wanted to make a strong start, and we made that happen. We also did a good job defensively to seal the win," Beijing Guoan head coach Ricardo Soares said after the game.

Chengdu also scored early, with Gan Chao unleashing a long-distance effort in the sixth minute, while Manuel Palacios added another goal before the end of the first half.

Hu Hetao and Romulo Jose added a pair of goals in the second half to seal a dominant win.

Elsewhere, Shanghai Shenhua edged Qingdao West Coast 1-0, Changchun Yatai crushed Qingdao Hainiu 5-0 and Henan FC eased past Meizhou Hakka 3-0.
