China grab 1-0 win over host Peru at U-17 world championship
China edged host Peru 1-0 to gain the upper hand in the group phase at the FIFA U-17 world championships Tuesday.
A shot from 30 meters out by left back Deng Zhuoxiang helped China to settle the advantage in Group A where the victory becomes the first match to have a winner as the tournament enters its second round.
Title contenders Ghana, held 1-1 by the host in the first round, continued with their bad luck with another 1-1 draw with Costa Rica, who tied China 1-1 in their previous game.
China lead the group with four points, followed by Ghana and Costa Rica, both having two points with one game left.
China next play Ghana while Peru take on Costa Rica in the Group where qualifiers may be decided by goals difference. China’s goalkeeper Wang Dalei, also a Player of the Tournament at the Asian U-17 Championship, is banned from the decisive clash with Ghana after having collected two yellows.
