Nigeria's Sone Aluko scores in Beijing Renhe's losing battle

Sone Aluko was on target in Beijing Renhe’s 3-1 defeat to Guangzhou R&F in a Chinese Super League game at Yuexiushan Stadium on Saturday.

Having lost their previous two games to Henan Jianye and Chongqing Dangdai Lifan, Aleksandar Stanojevic’s men lost against the Blue Lions despite the effort of the 30-year-old.

With only three minutes into the encounter, Aluko opened the scoring for his side after he was set up by Xuanhong Wang.

In the 38th minute, Dia Saba ignited the Blue Lions’ comeback with his equaliser off Tang Miao’s assist.

Eran Zahavi gave Dragan Stojkovic’s men the lead in the 50th minute after receiving a pass from Zhang Gong.
