Changzhou Dominates Suqian in Jiangsu City League Clash

Suqian, Jiangsu – July 18, 2026 – Changzhou Team put on a masterclass in attacking football at the Suqian Sports Centre, cruising to a 3-0 victory over a disjointed Suqian side. The result strengthens Changzhou’s position near the top of the Jiangsu City Football League table, while Suqian are left to rue a lack of cutting edge.

Match Overview

From the first whistle, Changzhou controlled possession and dictated the tempo. Their midfield trio of Zhang Lei, Chen Hao, and Wang Peng dominated the centre of the park, repeatedly feeding dangerous balls into the channels. Suqian attempted to sit deep and hit on the counter, but their defensive line was consistently exposed.

Goals Flow in First Half

Changzhou opened the scoring in the 22nd minute. A quick one-two on the edge of the box released striker Li Ming, who finished coolly into the bottom corner. Twelve minutes later, it was 2-0. A corner met by the head of center-back Zhao Wei – his powerful header left the Suqian keeper with no chance.

Suqian barely threatened before halftime, managing only a single speculative long-range effort that sailed wide. Changzhou continued to press, and just before the interval, they struck again. A sweeping move from back to front ended with winger Sun Jie cutting inside and curling a beauty into the top corner.

Second Half – Suqian Crumble

The second half was a formality. Suqian rarely mustered any meaningful attacks, and Changzhou were content to manage the game. The home side’s frustrations boiled over when midfielder Huang Tao earned a yellow card for a late challenge. Changzhou goalkeeper Liu Qiang had a quiet evening, rarely tested.

Standout Players

• Li Ming (Changzhou): A constant menace, his movement and finishing were top class.
• Zhao Wei (Changzhou): Commanding at the back and clinical from set pieces.
• Zhang Lei (Changzhou): Orchestrated the flow from midfield, completing over 90% of his passes.

What It Means

Changzhou’s emphatic victory keeps them in the hunt for promotion places in the Jiangsu City Football League. For Suqian, back-to-back defeats have left them hovering just above the relegation zone. Head coach Zhou Bin will need to find solutions quickly if his team is to climb back up the standings.
