China thrill in track and field but footballers flop again at Asiad

HANGZHOU – China swept four gold medals in track and field at the Asian Games on Sunday to celebrate national day, but their men's football team failed to read the script and were dumped out by South Korea.

Discus thrower Feng Bin, who like Wang was dethroned as world champion in August, also bounced back in style to claim gold with a throw of 67.93m, a Games record. The Koreans, who are chasing a third gold medal in a row in the under-23 competition, face Uzbekistan in the semi-finals. South Korea's coach Kim Hak-kyun called the gold "precious" and said they were already targeting more success at next summer's Paris Olympics.China did however recover to win the final of the men's team competition 3-2 after going behind to India.

In the men's event, rising star Taichi Kho kept his nerve despite a charge by PGA Tour star Im Sung-jae for a one-stroke victory.An athletics official suffered a broken leg after being hit by a hammer hurled during competition by Kuwait's Ali Zankawi.
