CHONGQING, China, Oct. 11 (Xinhua) -- China's Under-22 team beat Indonesia 2-0 in the Chongqing International Football Tournament here on Friday.
In a repeat of the last game, China made their breakthrough in the second half thanks to two spot-kicks, as Tong Lei volleyed the ball into the net from outside the penalty area in the 55th minute before an own goal from the rival side on 67 minutes.
Compared with the first competition day, Hao Wei, the newly appointed executive coach of China, arranged a different line-up to test the squad.
Indonesia dominated the first half through short passes but failed to take any chances, while China made frequent mistakes due to poor cooperation.
After the break, China made its substitution and set the pace. In the 79th minute, Chen Pu got injured. In the final minutes, Jiang Shenglong was sent off. China has received a red card for two consecutive games.
In the match played earlier on Friday afternoon, Saudi Arabia edged Jordan 1-0.
