Three days later, the Chinese women's team will continue to face the last opponent in the group stage at the Mumbai Stadium, the host India women's team. As the Indian team has players with the new crown, it is proposed to the AFC today to withdraw from the match with Chinese Taipei. Whether the match between China and India in the final round of the group stage can be carried out normally is still unknown, and it is necessary to wait for the official news of the AFC.
After the match, the AFC released the post-match statistics for the match. Although the scene occupies an absolute advantage, there is a statistic that needs to attract the attention of the Chinese team, otherwise it will be affected in the next knockout rounds. That is, after Lou Jiahui received a yellow card in the last round against Chinese Taipei, two more players in the Chinese team were warned of yellow cards in this round, namely Li Jiayue and Zhang Rui, while the Iranian women's football team did not receive a yellow card. According to the rules of the Asian Cup, if a player accumulates two yellow cards in the group stage, he will be automatically suspended for one match in the next round (including the knockout rounds). Looking forward to the Chinese women's football team to continue to cheer!
