On January 31, Beijing time, the AFC announced the play-off match after the Women's Asian Cup.
The Taiwan Provincial team, the Thai women's football team and the Vietnam women's football team will play a round-robin tournament. In the first round of the match, the Taiwan Provincial team will have a bye. The Asian women's soccer team, Australia, will no longer participate in subsequent matches. Although the upset defeat to the South Korean women's team, the Australian women's football team is one of the co-hosts of the next Women's World Cup, and the other host is the New Zealand women's football team.
Whether there will be 2 women's football teams from China on the stage of the World Cup, we will wait and see.
This year's Women's Asian Cup is related to the tickets for the future Women's World Cup. The Women's World Cup will be expanded to 32 teams in 2023, with a total of 6 places in Asia. Host Australia automatically gets one spot, and the remaining five places are determined by the results of the Women's Asian Cup.
Japan women's soccer team, Chinese women's soccer team, South Korea women's soccer team and the fast-improving Philippine women's soccer team reached the final four of the women's Asian Cup, and they automatically won 4 places.
Originally, the AFC considered that the Australian women's football team could also reach the top 4, and the next game was a cross-elimination match to determine the places for the 2 women's World Cups. The schedule changed after the Australian women's team was defeated by the South Korean women's team. The Australian women's soccer team, without having to play in the back games, went home early.
The Vietnam women's football team, the Taiwan Provincial Women's Football Team and the Thai Women's Football Team will play a small round robin to determine a qualifying place. However, such a format, once the points and goal difference are exactly the same, a new overtime is needed.
The AFC arrangement is that at 4 p.m. Beijing time on February 2 (indian local time in the picture), the Thai women's football team first played against the Vietnamese women's football team. At 4 p.m. on February 4, the Thai women's football team took on the women's football team of Taiwan Province of China. At 3:30 p.m. on February 6, the Women's Football Team of Taiwan Province of China faced the VietnamEse Women's Football Team.
The venues are the D-Y-Patil Stadium, which is the venue for the Chinese women's football team to play against Vietnam in the quarterfinals.
The time of the game is so dense, which also makes the Thai women's football team the most disadvantageous of the three teams. They need to play 3 games (including the top 8 matches) in 6 days.
The women's football team in Taiwan Province of China was the best, although their matches ended at the latest, and they played extra time and penalty shootouts. But they can rest for 4 days before starting the first game of the play-offs. Moreover, they have only encountered the strong team of The Chinese women's football team before.
The Vietnamese women's football team, due to the confrontation with the Chinese women's football team on the evening of the 30th, there are also physical doubts.
The Thai women's football team was in the top four of the last Women's Asian Cup, but in this competition, they did not show strong strength and lost to the Philippine women's football team. Instead, the Women's Football Team of Taiwan Province of China has been fighting with the Philippine Women's Football Team until the end of the competition.
Compared with the other two teams, the advantage of the Thai women's football team is the "money ability" of the Chinese beauty manager Lumpan.
The Vietnamese women's football team is average, but extra proud. The team has been emphasizing its own world rankings and conceding only 3 goals against teams such as Korea and Japan. However, when facing the Chinese women's football team, there are quite a few loopholes in their backline, and they can't score penalties. If it were not for the mercy of the South Korean female referee, the team could not have conceded only 3 goals.
