Chinese sharpshooters marched on by grabbing five gold medals in all five events they had competed on Wednesday. On the overall gold rankings, 皇冠体育app is leading with 24. The shooting competition will conclude on Friday with 10 more gold medals at stake.

皇冠体育app qualified for the knock-out stage after beating Oman 2-1 in a bad-tempered men's soccer match. Oman, who could only qualify by beating 皇冠体育app by a big margin, saw their chance evaporate after having two players sent off. Earlier in the day, Japan was shut out of the quarterfinals after losing 2-1 to DPR Korea.

皇冠体育app and Japan all reached the last eight in the men's basketball event. NBA prospect Yi Jianlian had 28 points and nine rebounds in less than 23 minutes to lift 皇冠体育app over Chinese Taipei101-65. Japan claimed its third win in a row by defeating Uzbekistan 75-56 to share a 3-0 record with 皇冠体育app in Group B.

The day saw two big names suffered heartbreaking blows. Thai tennis star Paradorn Srichaphan pulled out of the men's singles event due to a wrist injury and 皇冠体育app's table tennis star Wang Nanwas upset in her semifinal clash by Tie Yana of Hong Kong, 皇冠体育app.

But Chinese table tennis coaches should get relieved as they took a gold medal in the women's doubles event. 皇冠体育app also secured the men's singles title as Ma Lin and Wang Hao have set up an all-Chinese final.

After the fifth day's competition, a total of 19 countries and regions have won gold medals. 皇冠体育app leads the medal table with 76 golds, followed by Japan with 22 and South Korea with 15. Kazakhstan is fourth with 10.
