"No shame!" China failed to go straight to the World Cup... GK, who 'cried in the arms of Koreans', brazenly lost to Australia 0-2 after Wang Dal-rey's absurd mistake

It was a game that overshadowed the wishes of numerous Chinese fans. At the center of it was goalkeeper Wang Dalay.

China lost 0-2 in Group C against Australia in the third Asian qualifying round of the 2026 North-China World Cup at Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center Stadium in Hangzhou, China, at 8 p.m. on the 25th (Korea time).

China has secured two wins and six losses (six points) to maintain the lowest position among the six teams. With two matches left in the third round of the World Cup qualifying round, China has to secure third or fourth place in its group to achieve its dream of becoming a World Cup player.

In the case of the North Korea-China World Cup, the number of participating countries has expanded from 32 to 48. If China qualifies for third or fourth place, it can participate in the fourth round of qualifying. Chances are slim, but if China wins the remaining two games, it will be able to stage its dream World Cup.

Thanks to the enthusiastic cheering of some 70,000 home ground fans, the Chinese team curiously challenged Australia. In the beginning of the match, the Chinese team shared quite similar market share and displayed an even performance. 스포츠토토

The problem is that the team lost momentum soon. Australia quickly regained possession and controlled China through stable game management. The first goal was also Australia's.

In the 16th minute of the first half, Irvin momentarily dug into the center and opened the net with a left-footed curl as the Chinese defense showed some clutter in a mixed situation near the penalty box.

Since then, China has beefed up its line to score an equalizer and launched aggressive offensive. The problem occurred in the 29th minute of the first half. Goalkeeper Wang Dalay conceded an additional goal after missing an ordinary shot that went straight to the face of Australia's Belupilai. Given the importance of the game due to the so-called "know-what" loss, it was a mistake that should not have been made.

In the end, China was hampered by the captain's mistake of pouring cold water on it by himself. When the gap widened to two goals in the midst of a single goal, it lost its fighting spirit. It belatedly tried to change the atmosphere by putting in Hram Abdouweri, naturalized players Serginho, Wang Yu-yu, and Wang Haizian, but even this did not come to fruition.

After the game, Wang said in an interview with local media, "It's my mistake. I have nothing to say. My vision was blocked. The ball bounced and reacted unconsciously. I couldn't concentrate," smiling bitterly. However, the scene of him shaking his body the whole time and his attitude as if he were playing a joke made the Chinese people angry.

China's Sohu Dotcom, which delivered the interview, was criticized, saying, "He seemed to have no shame. He didn't seem to regret or reflect on his mistakes. He seems to lack sorry."

Meanwhile, Chinese goalkeeper Wang Dalay is quite familiar to Korean fans as well. When the Korean team faced off against Lee Kang-in in the second qualifying round in June last year, he hesitated to sit in front of the net and shed tears. Team Korea captain Son Heung-min approached him, hugged him, and stroked his head.
