Wang Shuang's penalty helps 10-woman China edge Haiti at Women's World Cup

China Daily  

China's Wang Shuang celebrates after scoring the penalty against Haiti in the second round of Group D at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup in Adelaide, Australia on Friday. ADELAIDE, Australia - Wang Shuang successfully converted a crucial penalty as China weathered Zhang Rui's early dismissal to defeat Haiti 1-0 in the second round of Group D at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup here on Friday. China's head coach Shui Qingxia shifted to a more aggressive 4-3-3 formation in lieu of her usual 4-4-2, while Haiti notably benched their star forward Melchie Dumonay. Haiti's head coach Nicolas Delepine brought Dumonay onto the field in the second half, and the 19-year-old came close to scoring in the 53rd minute, but her close-range strike was deflected by goalkeeper Zhu Yu.
