    Sanzhen continued their impressive run in the China Super League (CSL) title race with two consecutive victories, leaving them just three points behind leaders Guangzhou Evergrande at the halfway stage of the season.

    The first victory came against Beijing Guoan on Sunday, with Sanzhen securing a comfortable 2-1 win thanks to goals from substitute Li Tie and midfielder Wang Shuo. The second victory was even more impressive, as Sanzhen defeated Shanghai SIPG 4-2 away from home, with goals from forwards Zhang Yuning and Ye Shiying.

    Despite the strong performance, Sanzhen coach Li Zhihao acknowledged that there is still work to be done if they want to secure the league title this season. "We have played well so far but we cannot afford to get complacent," he said. "There are still many games left and we need to keep improving our performance."

    With only six rounds remaining in the season, Sanzhen will be looking to build on their recent success and continue their momentum in the coming weeks. They face difficult opponents such as Tianjin Teda and Jiangsu Suning in the coming matches, but with their current form, anything is possible.

    Overall, Sanzhen's consecutive wins in the CSL title race show that they are a force to be reckoned with this season. With their impressive performances so far, they remain one of the top teams in the league and could potentially challenge for the title.
