• 2022 Women's Asian Cup

    From Mark@24:150/2 to rec.sport.soccer on Wed Jan 26 09:20:00 2022
    India, the host country, were forced to withdraw because so many players had Covid 19 that they didn't have 13 players to play. I don't know why they need 13. Isn't 11 enough? And I thought the minimum was 7 anyway?

    Australia got off to a good start. I think it was Indonesia they beat. It was 18-0!

    A revival for China? They beat Japan on penalties!

    It's China v South Korea in the final.

    It's China v South Korea in the final.

    China came back from 2-0 down to win the final 3-2 with the 3rd goal coming 3 minutes into injury time. China's 1st title since 2006. Maybe it is the beginning of a revival for China?

    Vietnam have qualified for the World Cup.
