Port, meanwhile, thrashed Tianjin Jinmen Tigers in a 5-0 victory at home in the Chinese Super League. Leo Cittadini, Matias Vargas and Oscar scored a goal each while Wu Lei wrapped up the goalscoring with a brace.
The victory saw Kevin Muscat's side successfully defend their league crown, pipping their city rivals Shanghai Shenhua by one point.
