Ouch! China smashes 12 past Bhutan

China hammered 12 unanswered goals past hapless Bhutan on Thursday as it ramped up its World Cup qualifying hopes with its biggest win in 15 years.

Australia, Japan and South Korea also enjoyed comfortable wins on a night of few surprises in Asia's round two - apart from the giant scoreline in Changsha.

After Mei Fang's 10th-minute opener, Yang Xu hit four including a penalty and Yu Dabao, Yu Hanchao and Wang Yongpo all bagged braces as China ran riot.
