NEW DELHI: Wang Shuang's well-taken penalty secured a vital 1-0 victory for China against Haiti in a thrilling Women's World Cup encounter at Hindmarsh Stadium in Adelaide on Friday. The win kept China's tournament hopes alive, showcasing their determination and resilience despite being reduced to ten players early in the game.
The Steel Roses, with three points from two matches in Group D, now set their sights on a crucial showdown against England on Tuesday. Meanwhile, Haiti face an uphill battle with no points after two defeats. However, they still have a chance to progress if they can secure a victory against Denmark on the same day and rely on favourable outcomes from other matches.
