2010 East Asian Football Championships Review: China upset East Asian apple cart again
By: Ben Maxwell
The fourth edition of the East Asian Football Championships concluded at Tokyo's National Stadium
on Sunday, and yet again there was frustration for the hosts as they crashed to a 3-1 defeat to
arch-rivals South Korea.
The big story of the four-team, nine-day round-robin tournament, however, was the performance of
China, who, despite the disappointment of again failing to qualify for the World Cup, continued
their pattern of alternating the title with the South Koreans, going undefeated in claiming their
second EAFC title.
