OSAKA adidas superstar rainbow baratas , Japan, March 9 (Xinhua) -- Frenchman Bruno Bini's contract as the coach of Chinese women soccer team is set to be extended to 2019, according to Yu Hongchen, the deputy of Chinese Football Association (CFA).
When the Frenchman, who led the French women's team to a fourth finish at the 2011 World Cup as well as the 2012 London Olympics, had helped the Chinese team to fix a berth for the Rio Olympics with one game remaining on Monday.
"Chinese fans and media would be very disappointed if we don't renew Bruno's contract," said Yu on Wednesday.
Bruno signed a one-year contract with CFA last September. According to the deal adidas superstar supercolor baratas , CFA would extend his contract for three more years before the current contract expires. Yu said that the advanced qualification for Rio Olympics was a little lucky for China, but the luck was only for those who had been prepared.
"Compared to our rivals in Rio, our ranking is much lower. So we won't set any specific goals for the team, we would like to see Bruno and his players give us some happy surprises," Yu added.
China, 17th in the world rankings, had failed to get the London 2012 ticket and was not a favorite in the Rio 2016 qualifications as compared to former world champions Japan adidas superstar 2 españa , traditional powerhouses Australia and DPR Korea. But China have collected three wins and one draw to secure an Olympic slot in advance, beating Japan, South Korea and Vietnam, tying DPR Korea in Asian qualifiers.
"We built up more confidence under Bini's lead, and we can play in perfect solidarity just like family members," said Chinese player Ren Guixin.

GENEVA, Sept. 14 (Xinhua) -- Though nearly half the world's population is now online adidas superstar 2 baratas , some 3.9 billion people still do not have access to the Internet, rendering an ever growing digital gap worldwide, a latest UN report on broadband Internet says on Thursday.
The report, the State of Broadband 2017: Broadband Catalyzing Sustainable Development, estimates by the end of 2017, some 3.58 billion people are to be online, equivalent to some 48 percent of the global population adidas superstar españa , up from 3.4 billion people or 45.9 percent at the end of 2016.
As nearly half the world's population is now connected, the attention has now shifted to where people still remain unconnected.
In the developing world, Internet penetration is projected to reach 41.3 percent by the end of 2017, up from 39 percent by end 2016, according to International Telecommunication Union (ITU) estimates, making Internet user penetration in developing countries unlikely to reach 50 percent in a similar timeframe. In comparison, Internet penetration in developed countries is to reach 81 percent www.coco-blog.com , with the world average at 48 percent.
In the least developed countries, in particular, Internet user penetration is projected to reach only 17.5 percent in 2017, up from 15.6 percent in 2016, meaning it's highly unlikely that relevant targets in the UN sustainable development goals will be achieved within the timeframe of 2020.
Down to specific regions, around 62 percent of all people not online are residing in the Asia-Pacific region, followed by Africa with 17.8 percent. This is pertinent to the largest demographic distribution in the Asia-Pacific adidas superstar baratas españa , where China and India, top two countries in population, contribute more than 362 million and 660 million people respectively to the unconnected population worldwide. It's also noteworthy that China continues to top the world's Internet market with around 700 million Internet users, followed by India with 355 million.
Meanwhile, the report shows that men continue to outnumber women in terms of Internet usage worldwide, despite the vice versa situation in the Americas. Recent studies, though adidas superstar baratas , show the disparities in gender access are becoming wider in developing countries, especially in Africa.
"Broadband is crucial to connecting people to the resources needed to improve their livelihoods, and to the world achieving the Sustainable Development Goals," said ITU Secretary-General Zhao Houlin.
"The goals for education, gender equality and infrastructure include bold targets for information and communication technology. The State of Broadband 2017 report outlines how broadband is already contributing to this and makes valuable recommendations for how it can increase this contribution into the future," he added.
Promoting investment in broadband connectivity from a broad range of sectors, the report notes adidas yeezy boost 350 v2 baratas , can help achieve the full potential of these technologies and bring the world closer to the goal of an inclusive digital society accessible by all.
