Nigerian star Odion Ighalo’s Chinese team Chanchun Yatai relegated from Chinese Super league

Image

Odion Ighalo’s impressive goal tally was not enough to keep Changchun Yatai in the Chinese Super League.

The 29-year-old’s team were relegated to the China’s second-tier following a 2-0 defeat to Dalian Yifang in their final game of the season this past weekend.

Ighalo scored an impressive 21 goals in 28 games for the club, and his presence was dearly missed in their final round of fixtures as they duly succumbed to defeat and subsequent relegation.

Yatai finished level on 32 points with John Obi Mikel’s Tianjin Teda, but were relegated on the head-to-head score as they now prepare for live in the second division.

Former Watford forward, Ighalo, missed the club’s final game of the season with a hamstring injury that will also keep him out of Nigeria’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against South Africa at FNB Stadium on Saturday.

Ighalo scored five goals in two games against Libya last month to propel the Super Eagles to the top of Group E.

Victory in Soweto this coming weekend will book Nigeria’s place at the showpiece in Cameroon next year.

Mikel's own barely beat the drop on the last day. Watched their last match on ESPN+ and they lost like 4 or 5 to 1 to Paulinho's team, they were super useless luckily that Ighalo's team also super useless and lost so they beat the drop.

Wondering what Ighalo will do now, hopefully he looks to move back to Europe.

Imagine if both Ighalo's team and Mikel's team were relegated.
Its bad enough they are dragging relegation together.

Even in the Chinese league, our boys are in bottom feeder clubs? You all should just ratchet down your expectations
