Infuriating Trouncing to the Koreans

Chinese athletes are known for their remarkable competences and talents in almost all kinds of sports. In Asia, they continuously take over the region in a number of sporting events like Asian Games. Nonetheless, China failed to win one of the most valuable gold medals during the last Asian Games that was held in Hanoi, Vietnam. The Chinese national team led by NBA superstar Yao Ming was defeated by their major contender Korea, who actually surprised a lot of people with their win. This rout is something objectionable because they have a dominating big man in the person of Yao and at the same time, they were the defending champion.

Plus, we cannot consider the venue as a factor for their rout since Vietnamese were not anyway favoring the Koreans. They were more anxious with their soccer team who captured the gold medal. To keep it short, China had no reason to lose that championship game since they were viewed as the unsurpassed in Asia. Nonetheless, after that infuriating loss, many Asians realized that there is an emerging basketball super power in their region. Unfortunately, this emerging power were not the Chinese who failed to live up to the prospects of their immense population.
