The Green Giants pulled off a stunning performance in their most recent game, though, forcing a 1-1 draw on powerhouse club Jiangsu Suning FC on the road at the Nanjing Olympic Sports Centre on May 28, via Soccerway.

One of Jiangsu's Brazilian imports, João Alves de Assis Silva, opened the match's scoring with a strike that passed through Zhou Dehai's gloves off a Li Ang assist at the 27th minute.

The hosts seemed to be on their way to another victory, but Australian forward Tim Cahill had other plans as he knotted the count at the 88th minute with a short range header off a pass from midfielder Feng Gang.

It was the third drawn match for head coach Hong Myung-bo's squad in the current term.

Meanwhile, Guangzhou R&F suffered its third straight setback after they were nipped by contending team Henan Jianye FC, 0-1, at the Zhengzhou Hanghai Stadium also on May 28, Xinhuanet reported.

Filipino striker Javier Patiño had the lone goal of the game for the Red Devils with a shot at the 13th minute from an assist by local left back Mirahmetjan Muzepper.

It was the sixth loss of the season for manager Dragan Stojković's squad as they are currently settled at the 10th spot of the league table.

The predicted result is a tough 1-0 win for Hangzhou Greentown.
