A vicious free-kick by Deng Zhuoxiang earned China a 1-0 win over France yesterday as Les Bleus slumped to a dispiriting defeat in their last World Cup warm-up game.
The 2006 runners-up travel to South Africa on today and begin their World Cup campaign against Uruguay on June 11.
"I'm disappointed. Losing a match, even a friendly, even a World Cup preparation match, is never nice," said France coach Raymond Domenech.
