China's 2015 AFC Asian Cup games began yesterday against Saudi Arabia. The team from the Middle East certainly felt good before the match began, as they had not lost to China in 18 years.
The young Chinese team plays well in the first half and almost takes the lead just before half-time. Wu Xi hits a low drive from the edge of the area, but Saudi goalkeeper Waleed Abdullah keeps it away. It would be the only shot on goal in the first 45 minutes, as the half ends with no score.
Saudi Arabia then has a great opportunity to take the lead just after an hour, for they get a penalty-kick (点球). However, they missed the goal, with Wang Dalei able to make a good save to keep the ball out. The save would be an unusual present for his birthday.
Nine minutes later, China takes the lead. Yu's free kick goes into Saudi Arabia's goal. China wins the game with the only goal for the two teams.
The other match in Group B saw Uzbekistan beat the DPRK 1-0, and they now top the group together China with three points. The second round of the group stage will take place on January 14th, with China facing on Uzbekistan in an important game, and the DPRK taking on Saudi Arabia.
