Shanghai Shenhua’s game against Chengdu Blades will now take place on Saturday night at 7.45pm at Hongkou Stadium instead of Sunday night as originally planned.
If you find it unusual that a fixture is being moved to a more convenient time instead of a less convenient one, you’ll find the reason for the switch somewhat ironic – TV scheduling, according to the club’s official website.
