After the break, China gradually gained advantage and launched attacks one after another. China's efforts were paid off in the 66th minute when Wang Kun sent home a cross from defender Liu Huana.

China continued to attack while South Korea also put more power to attack, but both sides failed to score thereafter.

Later in the day, Japan and DPR Korea will compete in the women 's soccer final.
