(도쿄=연합뉴스) 황광모 기자= 10일 일본 도쿄 아지노모토경기장에서 열린 2010 동아시아축구선수권대회 한국 대 중국의 경기에서 전반 중국에게 두번째 골을 헌납한 한국팀 선수들이 허탈한 표정을 짓고 있다.
In their second match of the four-nation East Asian Football Championships, Korea lost to China 3-0 at Ajinomoto Stadium in Tokyo, Japan on Wednesday night. During the 31 year span,
Korea had been on a 27 game unbeaten streak (16 wins and 11 losses) against China since the 1-0 win at the 1978 Bangkok Asian Game on Dec. 17.
“There are several reasons for the loss but the end to the unbeaten streak was inevitable,” stated manager Huh Jung-moo in a post-match interview.

Korea defeated Hong Kong 5-0 in their opening match of the tournament on Feb. 7 and will face their archrivals Japan on Lunar New Year’s Day on Sunday to conclude the tournament.
