Tianjin, one of the struggling sides in the Chinese Super League (CSL), has finally managed to break their winless streak with a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Henan Henan on Saturday. The win, which came at the right time for Tianjin, has injected some much-needed confidence into their relegation battle.
The match was a rollercoaster affair, with both teams creating chances. Henan, who have been in decent form recently, took an early lead through a well-taken goal by their star striker. However, Tianjin responded swiftly. A combination of clever play and clinical finishing saw them level the score before halftime. The turning point came in the second half when Tianjin’s captain scored a stunning goal from outside the box, putting them ahead for the first time since the restart. Despite Henan’s late pressure, Tianjin held on for a well-deserved victory.
The win was particularly significant for Tianjin’s young squad, who have been under immense pressure to avoid relegation. With this result, they have moved to 10th place in the CSL standings, breathing a little easier in their quest to secure survival. Despite the victory, the relegation race remains tightly contested, with several teams still in the mix. Tianjin will need to build on this performance and continue their push up the table in the coming matches.
The CSL relegation battle is far from over, but Tianjin’s first win in over a month is a positive sign for the club and their fans. With key players starting to find their form, Tianjin will hope to maintain their momentum as they aim to secure another season in the top flight. For now, the victory against Henan serves as a much-needed boost in their fight to stay in the CSL.
