League leader Wuhan Three Towns took down Meizhou Hakka 2-1 in the 14th round of the 2022 Chinese Super League (CSL) on Monday.

In the 10th minute, Aleksa Vukanovic broke the deadlock for Meizhou with a clever low shot, after seizing his fellow player Yang Yilin's accurate pass.

Only 14 minutes later, Marcos Vinicius Amaral Alves finished a powerful header from Deng Hanwen's cross to equalize for Wuhan. In the 37th minute, Xie Pengfei added another after a pass from Brazilian striker Davidson.

Meizhou created a few chances in the second half, but didn't manage to find an equalizer.

With 13 wins and one draw, Wuhan leads the 18-team standings with 40 points, four points clear of second-placed Shandong Taishan.

In Monday's other game, Beijing claimed a 1-0 victory over Guangzhou City.
