Temwa Chawinga's strike leads Wuhan past Shandong Sports Lottery

Temwa Chawinga continued her fine goalscoring form as her strike led Wuhan to a 3-1 comeback victory over Shandong Sports Lottery in a Chinese Women's Super League encounter on Tuesday.

Wuhan came into the showdown on the heels of a 3-0 triumph over Barbra Banda's Shanghai in the last outing, with the Malawi international scoring the opening goal.

With that victory, Wuhan moved to the top of the Chinese top-flight table for the first time and were aiming to retain their place at the summit against Shandong.
