Tianjin Teda is on a disastrous 10-game winless slide that saw them drop to the 14th spot of the China top flight from as high as the sixth place in the overall standings.

Four straight goals by the visitors, courtesy of Papiss Cissé, Dai Lin, and a brace from Graziano Pellè at the fifth, 11th, 52nd, and 84th minutes respectively, put the Tigers in a four-goal hole that they did not overcome.
Tianjin managed to score a consolation goal, though, in stoppage time via new Gabonese import Malick Evouna
