HONG KONG (Reuters) - Shanghai SIPG's Wu Lei scored four as they battled back from two goals down to defeat Guangzhou R&F 5-2 on Sunday and maintain their perfect start to the 2018 Chinese Super League season.

Eran Zahavi and Xiao Zhi gave R&F a two-goal lead with just nine minutes on the clock, but China winger Wu dismantled the home side's defence to give Vitor Pereira's team their third win in a row.
