Xinhua,April 14, 2018 Adjust font size:

BEIJING, April 14 (Xinhua) -- Brazilian striker Diego Tardelli scored twice to pace Shandong Luneng for a 2-0 win over newly-promoted Dalian Yifang at home in the 6th round of 2018 Chinese Super League on Saturday.

Tardelli netted the first in the 31st minute after receiving a pass from Italian midfielder Graziano Pelle, then had his double in the 78th minute from the penalty spot.

The victory put an end to Luneng's two-game losing streak, but gave Yifang their 6th straight loss in as many games.

Through a pair of assists from Ghanaian striker Frank Acheampong, Tianjin Teda beat Guangzhou R&F 2-1 at home.

After Chen Zhizhao broke the deadlock in the 8th minute for the visitors through a pass from Eran Zahavi, Nigerian midfielder John Mikel found the equalizer in the 27th minute, and Hui Jiakang sealed the victory for Teda two minutes later with a header, both goals were assisted by Acheampong.

In other action of the day, Ecuadorean forward Javier Ayovi scored one and made an assist to help Beijing Renhe edge Guizhou Hengfeng 2-1. Enditem
