Shanghai - Marouane Fellaini, who spent three weeks in hospital with coronavirus, scored a hat-trick of headers in less than 10 minutes to give Shandong Luneng a 3-2 victory over Rafa Benitez's Dalian Pro on Sunday.

But former Manchester United midfielder Fellaini then roared to the fore with three towering headers in the 79th, 83rd and 86th minutes in Dalian. Two of his goals came off corners. Swedish international defender Marcus Danielson pulled a goal back for Dalian deep into stoppage time. Shandong said he was asymptomatic and the giant Belgian posted pictures on social media of him doing exercises while in confinement. After his hospital stay he then spent two weeks in quarantine.
