The Portgal defense is too good...still problem of speed in front of goal. Well at least China made improvement to be able to move on wings and midfield, in past China only defense.
China still lack a true goalscorer and a play-maker, however having said that their midfield and wing play has certainly improved and China really looked like they were causing problems for Portugal in the second half
well to be fair thats because they were playing against the Portugal bench...with that said, I think its still a good result. The younger players never gave up on the game and kept attacking. If this was a few years ago the team would stop committing player forward completely and hope for a draw or acceptable loss.
Congratulations for keeping the game competitive. Ronaldo and co. would have given any team in our confederation problems.
