Yanbian Longding 1-1 Guangxi Hengchen | Chinese Football League 1 | May 10, 2026
Yanbian Longding and Guangxi Hengchen played out a 1-1 draw at the Yanbian Stadium in a Chinese Football League 1 tie that saw both sides share the spoils after a hard-fought contest. The result leaves both clubs in mid-table, still searching for consistency in a tightly packed division.
First Half: Early Action
The match started at a high tempo. Yanbian Longding took the lead in the 12th minute when striker Zhang Wei outpaced the defence and finished low past the goalkeeper after a clever through ball from midfielder Li Ming. Guangxi Hengchen, known for their strong aerial threat, responded well and began to dominate possession. Their equaliser came in the 33rd minute when a corner was met by the head of centre-back Wang Tao, who guided the ball into the net despite the presence of two defenders.
Second Half: Chances but No Winner
The second half saw both teams push for a winner. Yanbian came close in the 55th minute when a free kick from Kim Sung-ho rattled the crossbar. Guangxi’s best opportunity fell to substitute Huang Cong, whose shot from a tight angle was saved by Yanbian keeper Liu Yang. The game became stretched in the final 20 minutes, but neither side could find a decisive finish.
League Positioning
The draw leaves Yanbian Longding in 9th place with 15 points from 12 matches, while Guangxi Hengchen sit 10th with 14 points. The middle of the League 1 table remains incredibly congested – only five points separate 6th from 13th. Both teams will view this as two points dropped given the close nature of the promotion race.
What’s Next
Yanbian Longding travel to face Jiangxi Lushan next weekend, a crucial match for their playoff hopes. Guangxi Hengchen return home to take on Qingdao West Coast, another mid-table side looking to climb.
