Younis Mahmoud scored in the 45th minute to lead 10-man Iraq to a valuable 1-0 away win over China in Asian World Cup qualifying Tuesday.

With this loss, China's basically eliminated, as China has to play away games against teams that already beat China.

Don't worry, China will get its chance to play in the World Cup within 16 years, as FIFA is eager to give a game to China and China gets to play in the World Cup as the host country like South Africa.

Always sucks. People in China always make fun of them. and we have a National Football Song for them-- National Football Team Welcomes U
　　迎接另一个比赛 还是一贯客气 　　面容改变结果不变 能输绝不赢你 　　我家球门常打开 要进几个随你 　　交锋过后就有了底 你会爱上这里 　　不管远近都是客人 请不用客气 　　进的少了别在意 下回补给你 　　我家住着谢亚龙 书写每段传奇 　　不懂足球没有关系 仕途才是第一 　　来到球场都是客人 请不用拘礼 　　尽管过人没关系 没人防守你 　　国足欢迎你 为你开天辟地 　　再不济的实力也可能胜利 　　国足欢迎你 把净胜球全都送给你 　　哪怕你世界排名垫底 　　国-足-欢-迎-你-啊~oh~oh~wu~ha~ha~ha~ha~~ 　　我家球门常打开 开怀容纳天地 　　一个两个不算稀奇 再多也输得起 　　两张红牌做见面礼 请不用客气 　　场上梦游是惯例 场下才牛比 　　国足欢迎你 用净胜球感动你 　　积分全都送你那也没关系 　　国足欢迎你 遇到就是福气 　　业余球队一样能晋级 　　国足欢迎你 遇上了您就随便赢 　　有我们就会有奇迹 　　国足欢迎你 为你敞开球门 　　再不济的实力也能找信心 　　国足欢迎你 用净剩球感动你 　　你们捞足积分我们来出局

You're right, our national football team is useless.

The outlook of Chinese national soccer is pretty bad for the next 10 years.

On top of the Chinese national soccer team on the verge of being eliminated from the 2014 World Cup, China's Under-23 Olympic soccer team was eliminated from 2012 London Olympics after showing a dismal performance at qualifier matches. It is the Under-23 Olympic soccer team that will represent China at world stage for the next 10 years, and these players are terrible too.

Football is not the most popular sport in China, is it?
If it is not, there would be no strange at all.

Actually it is. And that popularity makes China's professional soccer weak, as it breeds corruption at all levels, from the players trying to advance from school to the pro-league and several tens of billions of dollar a year soccer gambling industry that fixes the matches.

The way the current Chinese soccer system is set up, China's Messi from a poor village is working at the field digging out potato because he couldn't pay off his highschool coach to get a recommendation to go to the college soccer team, while the untalented children of rich and powerful make the national squad.

If soccer was not a mega-money sport, then players would be selected based on personal merits and China would be dominating it like it does in Ping Pong, diving, and gymnastics.

Soccer Gambling Thrives in China - China Real Time Report - WSJ

Soccer Gambling Thrives in China

As of Saturday, police have already confiscated $102 million in illegal funds and arrested some 3,600 suspects for illegal gambling in connection with the World Cup, according to a report by the state-run Xinhua news agency.

Illicit gambling in Chinese soccer seems about as common as shin guards, and experts have said it’s also a key reason China hasn’t done well on the international soccer stage. Both performance and credibility has suffered amid accusations of match fixing and rumors that players pay for spots on the national roster.

While Chinese officials like to blame foreigners for the illegal activities, corruption has a long history in Chinese soccer.

Traditionally, national-team hopefuls had to pay tens of thousands of yuan in bribes, said Rowan Simons, author of a book on soccer in China, according to CNN.

“Players have come out and said they can’t play for the national team because they can’t afford it,” he said, according to the report.

“There’s corruption at every single level of the game,” Simons told CNN. “It’s an indictment of wider Chinese society and representative of a much bigger problem with corruption and nepotism.”

The joke among Chinese soccer fans.

"Where are China's Leo Messi and Wayne Rooney?"
"Out in the field digging out vegetable because they couldn't afford to pay their highschool coaches for a recommendation".

Sound like in Vietnam, the only difference is that Vietnamese junior football players don't have to pay for any fees. The Vietnamese decided to reconstruct their football-related system for the next season, hope the same thing for Chinese.
