HANOI — Vietnam made an embarrassing gaffe this week when receiving China's Vice President Xi Jinping, considered the future number one in Beijing, by displaying Chinese flags bearing one star too many. The trip was designed to improve strained relations that deteriorated following recent tensions over the disputed South China Sea. But on Wednesday, Xi was greeted with flags picturing six stars, while the official emblem of the People's Republic of China has only five -- one large yellow star surrounded by four smaller ones.

"We were angry because our players were introduced as if they were from South Korea, which may affect us very greatly as you might know."
