China's Wuhan won a surprising victory over defending champion of Vietnam's V- League 2006, Gach Dong Tam Long An, 1-0 at the Binh Duong Television Soccer Cup 2006 Tuesday, but that could not help the Chinese club advance into semifinals.
Wuhan scored the winner in the 48th minute. However, with only three points gained after three games, the Chinese had to say good- bye to the soccer cup.
On Monday, Vietnam's Binh Duong beat Busan of South Korea 1-0, and Vietnam's Da Nang tied Woodlands Wellington of Singapore 4-4.
On Thursday, Vietnam's Binh Dinh is to play Busan in the first semifinal match, and Binh Duong will clash Gach Dong Tam Long An in the second one.
A total of seven soccer teams, including four from Vietnam and three from foreign countries, are divided into two groups. Da Nang, Binh Duong, Busan and Woodlands Wellington are in Group A, while Group B includes Wuhan, Binh Dinh, and Gach Dong Tam Long An.
The top two finishers of each group qualify for the semifinals and the final match is scheduled on Dec. 9 in Vietnam's southern Binh Duong province.
