Haiti - FLASH : World Cup : China narrowly wins [1-0] against Haiti
Friday, July 28, 2023, as part of the FIFA Women's World Cup, on the lawn of the Hindmarsh stadium in Adelaide (South Australia), the Chinese won narrowly the victory against Haiti thanks to a penalty from Wang Shuang [1-0] at 74'...

Coach Nicolas Delépine was forced to start against the Chinese with Melchie Daëlle Dumornay on the bench due to muscle pain. Maudeline Moryl accompanies Sherly Jeudy and Dayana Pierre-Louis in the midfield.

Starting XI:
Goalkeeper:
Kerly Theus, FC Miami City (USA)

Defenders:

Nerilia Mondesir, Montpellier HSC (France)
Roselord Borgella, Dijon FCO (France)

Coach: Nicolas Délépine




A lot of energy in this start of the match, the two teams do not hesitate to make contact. Corner of China shot by Yang L N at 8' cleared by the back of a Haitian defender.

Li Mengwen at 15' shoots in a good cross that Lou hits but it is a mere formality for Theu to intercept this first shot of the match.

At 18' Haiti on a free kick in the Chinese half launches its first real attack which fails...

Rui Zhang at 23' tries her luck from a free kick from around 25 yards, but she is far from the target. It would have taken something very special to beat Theus at this distance...

The weather takes action, torrential rain falls in Adelaide, creating a very slippery playing surface

Our Grenadières showed themselves to be more to their advantage in the last quarter of an hour and even believed in the opener when Nerilia at 42' well served in depth, managed to open the scoring but she was finally signaled off-side. The goal is denied to Haiti. China was very scared...

45' end of the first period (regulation time) the score is still [0-0] even after 3 minutes of additional time.

Returning from the locker room after having dominated for almost 30 minutes in the first period, the aggressiveness of the Chinese is sanctioned by a card (Zhang)

Note that the French trainer Délépine has made a change replacing Maudeline Moryl by our star Melchie Daëlle Dumornay

Our Grenadières are very determined and push from the start to make the difference but the Chinese defense resists. Haiti started this second period well going forward with more intention. Having Dumornay back is a huge boost for the team.

At 52' Dumonay finds herself alone in front of Zhu, she strikes at close range but the Chinese goalkeeper pushes back beautifully with her fist!

Nice intervention of the Haitian defense at 57' towards Borgelia but his ball is narrowly intercepted by the Chinese defense.

Dumornay tries a return on a corner but his foot takes the face of a Chinese and the referee gives him a yellow card.

Nicolas Delépine at 64' makes a new change, he replaces Batcheba Louis with Roseline Eloissaint.

Yang Lina tries her luck from a distance, a good shot that does not bother Kerly Theus.

Borgella on the right side, takes a little too long to shift and Dumornay has no choice but to serve Nérilla in an offside position, a great missed opportunity...

Penalty confirmed for China in the 73' converted by Wang Shuang who takes Kerly Theus on the wrong foot and opens the scoring for China [1-0].

This goal changed the game, China dominated by Haiti regains control of the match.

New change for Haiti, at 82' Dayana Pierre-Louis is replaced by Danielle Étienne

7 minutes later, the coach made another substitution replacing Sherly with Shwendesky Joseph

Délépine and his Grenadières are now looking for equalization at all costs when there are only a few minutes left in regulation time (+ 9 minutes of additional time)

90'+3, while Qiaozhu makes a bad mistake on Eloissaint, the referee reconsiders his decision after video assistance. A very surprising decision for the moment, the penalty is refused for Haiti...

Served in the penalty area at 90'+7, Nérilla turns perfectly but his shot is too crossed the ball misses the target of the Chinese as well as the probable goal of equalization...

At the end of a very tense match, China narrowly won the victory at least [1-0] against Haiti
