On July 8, the 16th round of the China League A was completed, and the top scorer list changed. Although no goals were scored in this round, Yunan Yukun's Mu Xiekui still sat on top of the scorer list with an absolute advantage thanks to his strong performance. He was followed by Shijiazhuang Kung Fu's Messi Pauli, who climbed to the second place with his second goal of the round.
Guangzhou's Alegria, who is temporarily ranked third in this tournament, managed to score a penalty kick. Giovanni, who was ranked second in the previous round, was unable to score any goals in this round and dropped to fifth place. Suzhou Dongwu's Leonardo has just made it to the top five, while Chongqing Tongliang Dragons captain Xiang Yuwang is at risk of falling out of the top five. As of now, there are no more domestic players in the top five scorers in the Central League.
