CSL By The Numbers:Round 12 Attendance & ACL/Relegation Watch

Chinese Super League logoWhen the big boys are on the road, attendance definitely drops, though this week most games were in six digits, which was nice, Shaanxi also managed to have the highest attendance of the week despite an afternoon kickoff!

  • Chengdu 2 – 2 Shenzhen, Attendance: 3,000
  • Henan 2 – 1 Liaoning, Attendance: 10,000
  • Shandong 0 – 1 Qingdao, Attendance:4,000
  • Changchun 2 – 1 Beijing, Attendance:15,000
  • Tianjin 3 – 0 Nanchang, Attendance:13,000
  • Shaanxi 1 – 3 Dalian, Attendance:22,000
  • Shanghai 0 – 2 Guangzhou, Attendance:18,000
  • Jiangsu 2 – 0 Hangzhou, Attendance:12,000
Chengdu almost looked like they might make it a relegation zone fight, but Shenzhen scored late to equalize and probably kill off one of Chengdu’s last hopes, while Henan and Dalian keep winning to stay above the drop.  At the top of the table, Jiangsu show they haven’t given up hope while big wins for Changchun and Tianjin put them right in the thick of the ACL battle as Beijing and Liaoning both failed to pick up points.  Qingdao’s victory over Shandong see them just barely enter the picture while Shandong goes tumbling down.
