KEY POINTS:
The New Zealand men's and women's soccer teams have both suffered defeats this morning in their build-up for the Olympic Games.
The women's side went down 0-1 to China in a match played at the Games venue in Qinghuandao and the men's team lost 0-2 to an Indonesian club side in Jakarta early this morning (NZ time).
The Football Ferns' again dominated their match against China - they lost the first match 1-3 last Wednesday - but came away empty handed.
New Zealand coach John Herdman said the team, who also lost another game 0-1 to Australia in another warm-up game last week, were "gutted".
"The last three games they've taken nothing from them when they should've taken something," Herdman said.
After Han Duan put China ahead in the fifth minute, New Zealand controlled the game.
Kirsty Yallop went close to equalising within minutes of Han's goal, but her back post header was turned round the post by China's keeper in the 10th minute.
New Zealand created chances in the second half, with the pace and delivery from Ali Riley a constant danger on the right of midfield but the Football Ferns could not turn dominance in possession and territory into victory.
New Zealand travel to Singapore to play Singapore on Wednesday and Canada on Friday before returning to China to prepare for Olympic group G matches against Japan, Norway and USA.
In Jakarta, the travel-weary Oly-Whites slumped to defeat by Indonesian club side Persikota Tangerang.
Persikota who substituted scheduled opponents PSMS Medan opposition - scored in the 29th and 74th minutes.
"It's a bit of a reality check," New Zealand coach Stu Jacobs said.
"We're not accepting losing fixtures because we want to win every time we play but we realise we went into the game with players carrying niggles and had some fatigued bodies out there.
"The key now is to get people injury free and ready for Indonesia on Thursday."
Midfielder Sam Jenkins left the field after just 20 minutes with a tight hamstring while striker Daniel Ellensohn also picked up a knock to an ankle and was substituted midway through the second half as a precaution.
Over-age player Simon Elliott - who joined the squad from London on Friday - did not take the field, with Jacobs preferring to give the 54-cap All White his first run against Indonesia.
The Oly-Whites face Indonesia on Thursday before completing their Olympic build-up against club side Persija on Saturday.
At the Olympics, New Zealand play hosts China and gold medal contenders Brazil before completing pool play against Belgium.
