Cameroon star Bassogog rescues Shanghai Shenhua from defeat against Shanghai Port

Cameroon forward Christian Bassogog rescued a point for Shanghai Shenhua with stoppage-time strike in their 1-1 draw with Shanghai Port in a Chinese Super League match on Wednesday.

After replacing South Korea’s Kim Shin-Wook in the 57th minute, Bassogog scored a penalty in the 92nd minute to cancel out Aaron Mooy's opener for the visitors at Suzhou City Sports Centre.

Wednesday’s strike was the 25-year-old’s second goal after three appearances in the Chinese top-flight and it also helped Choi Kang-Hee’s men maintain their unbeaten start to the 2021 season (two wins and a draw).
