Bangkok, Thailand, November 26, 2020 – Reigning champions Tianjin kept their unbeaten record in the second stage of the Chinese Women’s Volleyball League by beating Shandong 3-0 (25-17, 25-23, 25-23) as Jiangsu produced a comeback win in Jiangmen on Wednesday, xinhuanet.com reported.

Li Yingying was on fire from the very beginning to help Tianjin jump to a 7-2 lead quickly. Shandong had no chance to fight back in the set.
