Carsten Jancker is expected to make his CSL debut for Shanghai Shenhua tonight against Dongbei side Liaoning FC.

Shanghai Shenhua's stuttering season in China's top-level professional football league, the CSL, has taken a major twist after the club announced it signed former Bayern Munich, FC Cologne, Hansa Rostock, Udinese and Rapid Vienna forward, Carsten Jancker.

Shanghai Shenhua finally won their first home game of the CSL 2006 season at the fourth time of asking, prompting scenes of celebration both inside and outside Hongkou Stadium.

More than 30,000 fans crammed into Hongkou Stadium on Thursday night to witness the Shanghai football derby, but went home disappointed after a dull 0-0 draw. (So dull we didn't get around to writing about it until today.)
