Wu Xinghan (89.) gave Shandong Taishan the decisive 2-1 at the end of the match. Earlier Zhejiang had taken the lead thanks to Gu Bin (36.). Shandong Taishan equalized after the break thanks to Chen Pu (53.). At Zhejiang, captain Franko Andrijasevic (ex-Ghent) and Nyasha Mushekwi (ex-Ostend) were in the base.
It is the eighth cup victory for Shandong Taishan, her third in a row. Two weeks ago, the team of former Red Devil Marouane Fellaini lost its national title in a bizarre way. Due to an increase in the number of corona cases, Beijing Guoan, the opponent of Shandong Taishan, and Tianjin Jinmen Tiger, the opponent of competitor Wuhan Three Towns, had to give up on the final day. The games were not made up and Wuhan Three Towns was crowned champion thanks to a better goal difference.
