Since the league restarted, Van Bronckhorst has seen his side lose 3-0 to Shenzhen, then 5-0 to Guangzhou Evergrande and last week the first point of the season was earned against Henan Jianye in a 1-1 draw.
On Sunday, Guanzhou R&F went in search for their first win but again they tasted defeat. Jiangsu Suning came away with a 2-0 win thanks to two goals from Alex Teixeira.
In the second half, Guanzhou R&F were awarded a penalty but Eran Zahavi’s spot-kick was saved.
Guangzhou R&F remains bottom of group A and Van Bronckhorst is already under pressure.
