China's Sohu Dotcom reported on the 10th (Korea time) 'Chinese women's pursuit A team drew with South Korea after a strong race, showing hope for the Korean national team's revenge'
Sohu said 'The East Asian Cup women's team has begun. The much-anticipated first-round match between China and South Korea ended in a 2-2 draw, showing strong physical strength and resilience. The draw is aimed at protecting the pride of Chinese soccer and is also revenge for the Chinese men's national team, which lost to South Korea.

China ran away and South Korea followed. Yao Wei's mid-range shot in front of the penalty box in the 15th minute of the first half was inserted into the corner of the goal. South Korea did not back down. When the cross that drilled the left side flowed to the center of the box in the first minute of extra time, Jang Seul-ki, who was rushing, finished and shook the Chinese net. In the second half of the match, it was China who ran away again. In the 22nd minute of the second half, Xiao Ji-chin's header goal came out. It was Ji So-yeon who saved Korea just before the end. Ji So-yeon attempted a mid-range shot from the left side of the penalty box arc in the fifth minute of extra time in the second half, and the ball was inserted into the goal.
However, in terms of performance, South Korea was not far behind. On the contrary, South Korea had many opportunities to go ahead by making several decisive scenes from the first half, but the decision was hampered and missed. For China, it was no different from showing an inferior performance despite its 29 wins, 9 draws, and 4 losses against South Korea and being a natural enemy without defeat in the last decade.

However, the Chinese media rather praised China's performance. Sohu said 'China continued its dream of winning the East Asian Cup with a precious draw. At the same time, he avenged the men's national team's defeat and sent a strong message to Korea, evaluating his performance as a surprise to Korea.
However, considering China's performance in the match against Korea, it seems difficult to gain an upper hand in the championship competition with Asia's strongest Japan. Some Chinese fans also said, `Chinese soccer is in decline for both men and women", he said, showing a critical response.
