The Shenhua title race has been one of the most closely contested in recent years, with several teams vying for the top spot. However, it seems that Shenhua have taken the lead in this year's title race.

Shenhua have been performing well throughout the season, and their recent form has put them in pole position to win the league. They have won six of their last seven matches, and have only lost once in their last 12 games.

Their success can be attributed to several factors. Firstly, they have a strong team spirit and a good work ethic, which has helped them to stay consistent throughout the season. Secondly, they have a solid squad of players who are capable of performing at a high level, and they have been able to adapt to different styles of play as the season progressed.

However, there is still plenty of competition for the title, with several other teams also looking to challenge Shenhua. The likes of Hebei China Fortune and Tianjin Teda are currently in second and third place respectively, and both have shown their ability to compete with the top teams.

Overall, it looks like Shenhua will be fighting hard to retain their title, but there is still plenty of uncertainty about how the rest of the season will unfold. Only time will tell whether they will be crowned champions or not.
