Hosts China claimed their first victory at the 17th AFC (Asian Football Confederation) Women's Asian Cup here on Friday as they beat Vietnam 5-0 in the Group B second round match.

China, who has reached the final of the Asian Cup in 10 of the last 11 editions, proved that they were too strong for Vietnam, taking the absolute dominance on the field at the Chengdu Shuangliu Sports Center.

China opened their scoring in the seventh minute when defender Li Danyang headed in Liu Huana's fine cross, four minutes before Yuan Fan netted in captain Bi Yan's corner.

China's third goal arrived in the 36th minute as Zhang Rui shook off two defenders to drive in a long shot.

In the 44th minute, Li Danyang split defense to make a solo drive but was tackled down by Vietnam's defender, which gifted China a penalty. Captain Bi scored a tight-angle penalty to make it 4-0.

Vietnam's misery was compounded in the second half when forward Han Duan's long-range shot went into the bottom right of the net in the 49th minute.

China now ranked second in Group B with four points, while Vietnam was the last.
