Four-time league champion Dalian Shide, who has been struggling throughout last season, suffered a 2-0 defeat to host Chongqing Longxin. Shide's Yugoslav head coach Milorad Kosanovic said: "It was bad luck to blame. I'm satisfied with my players' performance." "Longxin won the match because they grasped the chance," he added.

Aodong's captain Li Guanghao was also red-carded three minutes later for crude movements, which ignited a row between players of the two teams and the match was interrupted for several minutes In the day's other matches, Xiamen lost to Luneng 2-0, Liaoning was held a goalless draw by Shenyang Haishi and Sichuan Quanxing won Qingdao Hailiu by 3-1.
