In the sudden death shootout, China's goalkeeper Lu Xunhuo made a brilliant save to keep out the penalty, sealing the win for their team.
Overall, the victory was a testament to the strength of the Chinese team's defensive efforts and the resilience of their players. It was another example of how the Chinese national team can overcome adversity and come out victorious, and it will be exciting to see what happens in the upcoming matches.
