Beijing Guoan delivered a jaw-dropping 7-0 win over Yunnan Yukun in the Chinese mainland FA Cup semifinals on Wednesday night, booking their spot in the final against Henan on December 5 in Suzhou. 🙌⚽️
The scoring spree kicked off in the 26th minute when Fabio Abreu slotted home the opener. Just five minutes later, a tough foul by defender Andrei Burca earned Yukun a red card, leaving them a man down for the rest of the match.
With the numbers advantage, Guoan turned up the heat. Sai Erjiniao orchestrated two slick assists before halftime, setting up Wang Gang and Guga for goals that made it 3-0. Talk about a masterclass! 🔥
The second half saw even more fireworks. Between the 74th and 78th minutes, Lin Liangming, Jiang Wenhao, Zhang Xizhe, and Zhang Yuning each found the net. Yuning didn’t just score; he also created chances, capping the rout with a well-placed finish. 🎯
This marks Guoan’s first FA Cup final in seven years. Back in 2018, they lifted the trophy by edging out Shandong Taishan on away goals. Now, they’re eyeing a fifth title – and fans across South and Southeast Asia will be watching! 🌏💚
