Qingdao Team 0–0 Dongying Team
Shandong Qilu Football Super League – July 25, 2026

A damp evening in Qingdao saw the home side play out a goalless draw with Dongying Team in a tightly contested Shandong Qilu Football Super League fixture. Neither side could break the deadlock despite clear chances at both ends, leaving the points shared and the top of the table largely unchanged.

First Half: Cautious Start

The opening 45 minutes were characterised by midfield battles and few clear openings. Qingdao’s left winger Liu Zheng tested Dongying goalkeeper Wang Lei with a low drive in the 23rd minute, but the effort was comfortably saved. Dongying’s best chance came from a set‑piece – centre‑back Sun Hao glanced a header just over the bar from a corner in the 38th minute.

Second Half: Livelier but Still Scoreless

The tempo increased after the break. Qingdao pushed forward with greater urgency, and substitute striker Zhang Wei came closest when his close‑range header was brilliantly tipped onto the crossbar by Wang Lei in the 71st minute. Dongying responded with a swift counter, but forward Li Ming’s shot was blocked by the covering defender. As the match wore on, both teams settled for a point.
