The tie ended 1-1 and as largely reported Drogba made an instant impact in the game.

The Guangzhou R&F - Shanghai Shenhua  tie played at the
Yuexiushan Stadium  in Guangzhou was one of five ties played on Sunday in the 16-team China Super League (CSL).

Two and a half year deal

Brazilian midfielder Moura Pinheiro handed Guangzhou R&F the lead with an own goal on 22 minutes but in the other half Cao Yunding got Shanghai Shenhua  level on 68 minutes.

Drogba signed a two and a half year deal Shanghai Shenhua, now placed 12th in the CSL, in June after ending his eight year stay with Chelsea.
