China eyeing more gains

World Cup qualifier against Guam a great chance to build on momentum

China will attempt to take another small step towards the 2022 World Cup on Thursday when minnow Guam visits Guangzhou.

A 5-0 stroll for Marcello Lippi's side against the Maldives, along with the addition of two naturalized players, have given Chinese fans belief that the nation's wait for a second appearance at the finals could be nearing an end.
