Oct. 31 - A solitary1 goal from substitute Xu Deen saw last year's runners-up China overcome newcomers Australia 1-0 in their opening Group B match in the AFC Youth Championship at the Salt Lake stadium on Monday.

 

A 65th minute flick2 by midfielder Hao Junmin caught the Australian defence offguard and an unmarked Xu Deen, who replaced Huang Bowen in the 52nd minute, tapped the ball in easily.

 

Billed as the 'clash of the titans' looked a tame affair in the first half as both the teams were busy in midfield exchanges almost throughout the first half, save a few moves. China got two half chances before the break but defender3 Zhao Ming and midfielder Yu Hai failed to capitalise on them.

 

In the 29th minute, Yu Hai's attempt on a thorough ball from striker Wang Yongpo hit the side net while Zhao header on a cross from Hao Junmin went off the mark.

 

Australia coordinated4 well after the restart and earned their first corner in the 53rd minute but in vain. Aussie forward David Williams once went close but his efforts were thwarted5 by Chinese goalkeeper Wang Dalei. In the 62nd minute he scraped past defender Liu Jianye but his shot from the right was blocked by Dalei.

 

China could have doubled their lead in the 75th minute but Wang Yongpo freekick just went wide.

 

In the 84th minute David Williams had a golden opportunity to equalise when he jetted past his defender on a back pass but before he could connect, goalkeeper Dalei headed the ball to safety.
