She was named Player of the Match in China's draw with Spain and earned the sobriquet "The Great Wall of China".[3] She was less impressive in the second round match with Italy, missing a long range shot by Aurora Galli which bounced twice before it even reached Peng, as it trundled in to secure Italy's 2–0 win.
