Championship suspense continues for 24 hours! Chengdu Rongcheng could lift the trophy tomorrow night, four rounds early

In the match that just concluded, Dalian Yingbo defeated Qingdao Hainiu, meaning Chengdu Rongcheng missed the opportunity to claim the title without needing to play. However, less than 24 hours later, if Chengdu Rongcheng can win away against Henan FC, they will be able to confirm their championship status four rounds before the end of the season.

This Saturday, in the 26th round of the Chinese Super League, Beijing Guoan, Qingdao West Coast, Dalian Yingbo and Shandong Taishan all played first. If none of these four teams could win, Chengdu Rongcheng would have secured the Chinese Super League title four rounds early without playing.

Although Beijing Guoan and Qingdao West Coast both drew with their respective opponents, Dalian Yingbo found an opportunity in their home match against Qingdao Hainiu and eventually won 2-1 through goals from Stanciu and Luo Jing.

With Dalian Yingbo's victory, Chengdu Rongcheng lost the chance to secure the title without playing. However, in the upcoming match, if they can defeat Henan FC away from home, the team will achieve a historic moment and be crowned four rounds early.

This honor would not only be the first top-flight league championship in Chengdu Rongcheng's history, but would also represent a breakthrough for Sichuan football and western Chinese football. Since the professional era of Chinese football began, the best result achieved by teams from western regions in the top division had been third place. Therefore, if they successfully win the title, it would undoubtedly become a glorious chapter in history.
