Back on the match:
The meeting begins on the hats of wheels. China through Gu Yasha opened the scoring in the 9th minute, the Chinese sends the ball to the bottom of the net Hatchi (0-1)!
But the club of the South of France did not wait to react, with an equalization two minutes later, of a goal signed Barbara Bouchet! The player takes advantage of a lack of vigilance of the Chinese defense, to recover the ball in the back of Xue Jiao, before scoring a left foot in the 11th minute (1-1)!
The match intensifies between the two teams, who go for blow. China begins to dominate its opponent Marseille, trying to occupy the corridors to find the flaw, but the Olympian training remains on its positions. For Christophe Parra it's a great way to adjust his team for the next D2 matches by facing one of the best women's football nations!
The two teams return to the locker room on a 1-1 draw. The coach of Marseille operates 4 changes from the start of the second period, to rotate his squad (Pelloux is left back, Ben Abdelghani right winger, Vignal left winger and Fernandez took place in the goals)!

From the beginning of the second period, the Olympians try to put the game to avoid making the same mistakes as in the first period. The match is balanced with a slight Chinese domination.
But China does not want to reproduce the same scenario as in his previous friendly against Nimes (0-0) and stay on this draw anywhere. The Chinese formation rises in rhythm, and it will eventually pay in the 65th minute on a superb shot by Ren Guixin 25 meters from Fernandez goal in the middle (1-2)!
The Olympians down the block and fail to keep the ball in the opposite camp. A fact that will cost them a few minutes later, in the 74th minute: on a center recessed, Gu Yasha, at the entrance to the surface places his shot to send the ball into the small net of Marseille (1-3) !
The Olympians have lost the pace and begin to suffer the game of the Chinese team, while there are only a few minutes left to play.
The referee whistles the end of the match and the two parties are left on a score of 1-3 for Bruno Bini's team, against his opponent of the day, led by coach Christophe Parra. The Olympians will not be unworthy, facing a national team, which continues to grow in power!
