Manuel Pellegrini's Hebei CFFC beat Guangzhou R&F 2-1 to secure its third win in a row on Sunday and move into third place in the Chinese Super League as the battle for places in next season's Asian Champions League heats up.

First-half goals from Brazilian striker Aloisio and Zhang Lifeng effectively secured all three points for Hebei, with Teng Yi's effort for Dragan Stojkovic's team proving little more than a consolation.

The win moves Hebei to 42 points, one clear of Tianjin Quanjian, which beat Guizhou Zhicheng 3-1 on Sunday. Tianjin still has a game in hand on the leader.

Only the top three teams in the CSL will qualify for the continental club championship and Pellegrini's side leads the way in a five-team fight for the final spot.

"I told my players before the game that we were playing for six points," said Pellegrini.

"Both sides are tight to each other in the rankings, so we had to win.

"There are five teams fighting for the Asian Champions League slots and this competition will become very intense in the final three games of the season."

Five points cover the teams from third through seventh, and Shandong Luneng was one of the biggest weekend losers with Felix Magath's side slipping to fifth following a 0-0 draw with Jiangsu Suning.

Beijing Guo'an also slipped up when Roger Schmidt's side shared a 4-4 draw with bottom side Yanbian Funde, with Babacar Trawally completing his hat-trick for Yanbian in the 90th minute to deny Beijing all three points.

Guangzhou Evergrande maintained its eight-point lead over second-place Shanghai SIPG at the summit as both teams won their respective matches over Changchun Yatai and Tianjin Teda.

Evergrande had a Ricardo Goulart double to thank for its 3-1 success over Changchun, while SIPG pushed Tianjin deeper into relegation trouble as goals from Wu Lei, Yu Hai and Elkeson gave Andre Villas-Boas's side a 3-1 win.

Guangzhou coach Luiz Felipe Scolari hailed the influence of veteran midfielder Zheng Zhi, who was instrumental in his team's win once again.

"Zheng Zhi's fighting spirit and professional attitude are an example to all Chinese players," said Scolari.

"He played for the national team but, no matter his state of mind, he always gives his best. He doesn't know how to play the game any other way.

"He's 37 years old but he's like an 18-year-old and he works so hard in every match.

"He is an example to everyone and it's a pleasure for me to be able to work with such a player."

Stielike takes over

Three months after being axed as coach of South Korea, German Uli Stielike has been tasked with steering Tianjin Teda away from possible relegation.

Underlining the challenge facing the 62-year-old, Tianjin lost 3-1 to second-place Shanghai SIPG on Saturday and sits second from the bottom with seven games left.

Fellow German coaches Felix Magath and Roger Schmidt are already in the CSL, helming Shandong Luneng and Beijing Guo'an respectively.

On Monday, Uruguayan Gus Poyet resigned as coach of Shanghai Shenhua after a 2-1 loss to Henan Jianye on the weekend left the big-spending club languishing in 12th place.

The club's 11th loss in 23 matches this season came despite the introduction of Carlos Tevez off the bench after the Argentine forward's return from injury.

Zhao continues his meteoric rise, smashes another recordIn barely the blink of an eye, 16-year-old Chinese climber Zhao Yicheng had already slammed the buzzer — and rewritten the world record yet again. At the World Climbing Series Wujiang 2026 on Sunday night, Zhao stormed to victory in the men's speed event with a time of 4.54 seconds, breaking his own world record for the second time in a month and defeating former record holder Samuel Watson of the United States in a much-anticipated semifinal showdown. For the climbing world, it was more than a race. It was a direct duel between two of the sport's brightest young stars. Watson, born in 2006, emerged during the Paris Olympic cycle as one of speed climbing's defining talents, becoming the first athlete to push the discipline into the "4.70-second era". Yet since the Paris Games, global attention has increasingly shifted toward Zhao, his younger Chinese counterpart, who has already claimed three world youth titles and repeatedly produced times faster than previous world records. Just weeks before arriving in Wujiang, Jiangsu province, Zhao had lowered Watson's mark to 4.58 seconds at the Asian Beach Games. In Wujiang, he went even faster. Once the starting signal sounded, both climbers exploded up the wall almost simultaneously. Zhao produced the fastest reaction time of the day and maintained his advantage throughout the climb, stopping the clock at 4.54 seconds. Yet Zhao insisted afterward that the climb was far from perfect. "I think everyone performed at a high level in this competition, but my performance was definitely not perfect," he said. "I still saw a lot of details I can improve upon, and I feel I can climb even faster in the future." Despite being labeled a "genius" by many observers, Zhao credited both talent and hard work for his rise. "I have to admit that I do have talent, because talent makes my hard work more effective," he said. "But I also don't think I work any less hard than others. Talent gives me a higher starting point, while hard work allows me to go further." The teenager said elite competition motivates rather than intimidates him. "Honestly, without him, I probably wouldn't have climbed such a fast time today," Zhao said of Watson."I didn't feel pressure facing him -more motivation than anything." That motivation was evident in his explosive semifinal start, where Zhao recorded the quickest reaction time of the day. "My opponents don't actually affect me that much personally. I focus more on myself," he said."Before competitions, I usually listen to music to help myself relax and get into the rhythm of the event." Adding another layer of significance, Zhao's breakthrough performance came in his hometown of Suzhou, Jiangsu province. For years, he had attended the Wujiang event as a spectator. On Sunday night, he stood center stage as champion. "From being a spectator to becoming an athlete, I've been watching the Wujiang competition for three or four straight years," Zhao said. "Last year, I was already looking forward to doing something on this stage. "But, today, I actually felt more relaxed. Maybe people outside have certain expectations of me, but I think the enthusiasm of the crowd allowed me to completely be myself." Watson, who eventually took bronze, also offered glowing praise for the Chinese teenager. "He is undoubtedly the most talented speed climber I've ever seen," the 20-year-old American said. "I knew I had to give 100 percent against him." Watson revealed that the two climbers had already become familiar with each other and even chatted about basketball beside the podium before the medal ceremony. Chinese climber Long Jianguo claimed silver in the men's speed competition. Wujiang in limelight Beyond the headline duel, the Wujiang leg highlighted broader changes reshaping competitive climbing ahead of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, where speed, lead and boulder will each become standalone medal events. Specialization is accelerating across the sport, with athletes pushing single-discipline performances to new extremes. In Wujiang, the overall standard in speed climbing rose dramatically. The men's cutoff time to reach the finals improved from 5.07 seconds at last year's world championships to 4.94 seconds, while the women's mark improved from 7.18 to 6.67 seconds. The sport is also becoming an increasingly youthful pursuit. China's entire lead climbing squad at the event consisted of athletes born after 2000, with the oldest only 25 years old. Eighteen-year-old Chinese climber Hu Junzhe advanced to the semifinals in the lead discipline after an impressive qualification performance. Meanwhile, Wujiang continues to strengthen its status as one of China's climbing strongholds. Since first hosting the event in 2013, the city has staged the international competition 11 times. This year's event again embraced the "Climbing+" model, combining competition with tourism, cultural activities, local markets and outdoor experiences as part of a broader push to integrate sports, culture and regional development. From a once niche pursuit to an Olympic discipline constantly redefining human limits, climbing's rapid rise in China has unfolded alongside Wujiang's transformation into one of the sport's key hubs.
