27/11/2008 16:44
The Chinese women's soccer team yesterday defeated the United States 2-0,
but it wasn't good enough to send them to the second round of the Women's
Under-20 World Cup. Playing in the southern city of Temuco, some 400km to
Santiago, the Chinese team dominated the pitch since the first
minute. Despite the victory, China were not able to qualify because France
won 3-1 over Argentina, putting China out of the contention. France
progressed to the next round. China finished with a goalless draw with
Argentina and lost 2-0to France in the previous two group matches.
