Guizhou Renhe, who is struggling in the relegation zone, tied powerhouse Shandong Luneng 2-2 at home on Thursday, ending Luneng's winning streak in the Chinese Super League (CSL).

Thirteen minutes into the game, Liu Binbin's cracking volley gifted Shandong Luneng 1-0 lead. However, Guizhou Renhe scored twice quickly in the 28th and 31st minute. In the 63rd minute, Shandong Luneng equalized through Han Peng's header.

Also on Thursday, defending champions Guangzhou Evergrande tied 2-2 with Tianjin Teda at home.

Guangzhou Evergrande, who missed its captain Zheng Zhi, almost copied the process of Guizhou-Shandong game. In the 6th minute, Guangzhou Evergrande scored by a free kick, then Tianjin Teda made an overturn with two goals in the 27th and 32nd minute, and at last Guangzhou Evergrande tied the score with a free kick.
