Despite Shenhua boasting Argentine star Carlos Tevez in their ranks, the visitors shocked the vocal home crowd with the opener just two minutes in after Borrello’s emphatic finish, before Oar fired home a second on the 40th minute. The hosts tried to rally after the break but Brisbane clung on to claim a famous victory and advance to Group E where they will meet Japanese champions Kashima Antlers, Muangthong United of Thailand and Korea Republic’s Ulsan Hyundai.
