The best chance of Guo'an came on 33rd minute when Honduran forward Walter Martinez were set free in the area but his low strike was parried by a diving save from Barca's second-choice keeper Pinto.

After his freekick was stopped by the host's keeper Yang Zhi in the last minute of first half, the Argentina talented striker sat on the bench in the rest of the game.

The victory was Barca's second successive one after the Spanish Primera Liga champion whipped South Korea's K-League all-star team 5-2 in the first stop of the pre-season Asian tour.

Barca's eight first-team players that helped Spain win the World Cup didn't come to Asia. Among them, there are big names such as David Villa, Xavi and Andres Iniesta, who scored the sole and winning goal against Netherlands in the final.

Besides the friendly match, a series of other sports activities were staged on across the country, which marked the second anniversary of the opening of the 2008 Olympic Games and also the National Fitness Day.
