Following the sacking of coach Yasen Petrov Shijiazhuang Ever Bright hosted Shanghai Shenhua with former Chinese international Lie Jinyu the new man in the dug-out.

The visitors, on the other hand, would be with out forward Demba Ba who faces a lengthy spell on the sides lines after suffering a horrific broken leg in the Shanghai derby last week.

Shijiazhuang 2- Shanghai Shenhua 1

In the 17th minute  winger Cai Yunding nips in to square for former Inter Milan striker Obafemi Martins to tap in from close range and give Shenhua one nil lead.

10 minutes after the break its all square when Mao Jianqing eludes the Blue Devil's defence and scores from 6 yards. The linesman keeps his flag down despite calls for offside.

With 16 minutes left South Korean international Cho Yong- Hyung heads in a corner to complete the comeback with his first goal for the Hebei club.

Ever Bright hold on for the win and are now one point away from safety but stay in the drop zone. Shenhua remain 5th.
