After three fierce battles, Shandong Taishan won 4-2 against Changchun Yatai, Qingdao West Coast played to a 1-1 draw with Henan, and Harbour reversed Three Towns 3-1. The start of this Chinese Super League was full of passion and fire, and the pace of the game was also extremely fast. I believe all fans will feel: judging from these three games, the new season of the Chinese Super League is more exciting.
Shandong Taishan returned to the Chinese Super League after reversing Kawasaki Frontale, and the form is very hot. Cressan, Pato, Judson and Kazaishvili were the four foreign players who combined to contribute to the goal:

In the final moments of first-half stoppage time, Judson headed past the opponent's goal to give Tarzan a 3-0 lead.
In the 61st minute, Kazaishvili's curling kick gave Tarzan a 4-0 lead!
Although Shandong Taishan's four foreign players combined to score a 4-0 lead, their form has since relaxed. In the 81st minute, Beric scored a goal for Changchun Yatai; In the 93rd minute, Tan Long's head scored a goal. In the end, Shandong Taishan won 4-2 and ushered in a good start to the season.
Qingdao West Coast is a new team in this season's Chinese Super League, while Henan finished 10th in last season's Chinese Super League.
In the 18th minute of the game, the Henan team broke the deadlock. From 25 yards out, Nazario spotted the goalkeeper standing up front and quickly curled a stunning left-footed curling shot. The ball flew over the goalkeeper's head and flew into the net accurately, giving Henan a 1-0 lead! In the first round of the Chinese Super League, the audience will be able to enjoy such a wonderful world wave. With the goal scored, Nasario showed a churning celebration in the air.
In the 61st minute, Qingdao West Coast equalized the score. Riascos passed, Ravenjie quickly outflanked in front of the goal, and scored with his right foot to make the score 1-1! This goal also created the first goal of the Chinese Super League in the history of the West Coast, which is of great historical significance. In the end, the two sides shook hands and made peace, and each received 1 point.
Wuhan Three Towns were the champions of the Chinese Super League in the 2022 season, while Shanghai Port won the Chinese Super League title in 2023. However, the fates of the two teams were very different: investors withdrew their capital, which led to the loss of a large number of key players in Three Towns, and the team underwent major changes; Harbour, on the other hand, is still led by Wu Lei and Oscar, and has become the favorite team to win the Chinese Super League.
In the 20th minute, Wuhan Three Towns took the lead in breaking the deadlock. Romario Balde shot hard from outside the box, goalkeeper Yan Junling saved the ball, but then Wang Yi followed up and scored to give Three Towns a 1-0 lead! Wu Lei became a key figure, in the 33rd minute, Lu Wenjun crossed, Wu Lei volleyed a header to score, equalizing the score to 1-1! In the nine-year journey of the Chinese Super League, Wu Lei scored 132 goals and 68 assists, creating 200 goals alone. After the goal, Wu Lei performed a domineering "ear plugging" celebration, which was a powerful response to the outside world's doubts: I went my own way and only focused on my own performance.
It was a very exciting Super League game. In the 75th minute, Oscar crossed from the left, Wu Lei scored with a header, overtaking the score to 2-1, and Wu Lei, who scored twice, knelt to celebrate!
In the 92nd minute, Harbour scored another goal, and Wang Shen scored with a super top goal, establishing a 3-1 victory! Wu Lei went down two cities in a row, Wang Shenchao relayed, and the harbor reversed the three towns 3-1. Wu Lei performed well, receiving a score of 9, the best of the game is undisputed, which is also his highest score in three Chinese Super League games.
