Shijiazhuang Kung Fu took on Jiangxi Lushan on their home turf, welcoming a match against that team's relegation zone team, however, it could only end in a 1-1 draw. Special mention should be made of the fact that Jiangxi Lushan scored first in the match, but Shijiazhuang Kung Fu barely managed to equalize the score with a goal from Vinicio. It seems that after a rest period of about 3 weeks, they are still not back to their best. After the game, Shijiazhuang Kung Fu and Nanjing City had the same number of points, 45, but were still 6 points away from advancing to the Super League.
Guangxi Pingguo is hungry for victory. They also adjusted their coaching staff before the match. The addition of former national soccer team coach Ali Han and former international player Du Zhenyu gave them hope. Unfortunately, they failed to explain the true meaning of "a change of manager is like a change of sword", and instead lost 0-3 to Sichuan Jiuniu at home in a superb battle worth 6 points. At this point, Guangxi Pingguo Ha Rang is already 8 points behind the Super League, and with only 5 rounds left in the league, they are gradually moving away from the Super League.
According to the recent standings, Sichuan Jiuniu has a 9-point advantage in the Super League and has basically locked up a ticket to the Super League. Qingdao West Coast, Nanjing City, Shijiazhuang Kung Fu, and Guangxi Pingguo, will compete for the other qualification for the Super League.
