Though the national team's failure to qualify may dampen the enthusiasm toward football, several young players have emerged, who have been highlighted as the hopes for China in future competitions.One of the most-watched players is 18-year-old forward Wang Yudong, who plays for Zhejiang FC in the CSL. His penalty goal in China's 1-0 victory against Bahrain helped the team to avoid a bottom finish in the six-team qualifying group.The young player, who made his name through his quality performances during the under-20 Asian Cup earlier this year, has become the domestic top scorer in the CSL with eight goals in 12 matches. His growth has transcended club rivalry. During Zhejiang's away game against Shandong Taishan, he scored two goals against the hosts but he won applause from local Shandong fans.
