At 17:00 pm Beijing time on March 8, in the U20 Women's Asian Cup Qualifiers, China U20 Women's Football Team VS Philippines U20 Women's Football Team, China U20 Women's Football Team scored 3 goals in the first and second halves, and China U20 Women's Football Team beat the Philippines U20 Women's Football Team 6:0, ranking first in the group with a goal difference advantage. It laid a good foundation for the upcoming matches against Hong Kong U20 Women's and Laos U20 Women's Football.
The Chinese U20 women's football team started its winter training on December 19, 2022. Head coach Wang Jun said: This group of girls in China trains a lot every day, and the strongest training on a day exceeds 13,000 meters, and they have made great efforts to reserve physical fitness. The training time was a little rushed. From the perspective of the Asian Cup qualifying group, the strength of China's U20 women's football team is undoubtedly the strongest. But the Philippine women's football team took the "naturalization route". Of the 23 players in the Philippines Under-20 women's team, only six play in their home leagues, while of the remaining 17, 14 play for American clubs, two for Australian clubs and one for Canadian clubs. Therefore, it will bring certain variables to this game.

After the start of the match, the Chinese women's football team and the Philippine women's football team fought in the midfield, the Chinese girls paid more attention to the technical level of the march, and the Philippine women's football team obviously had more advantages in strength. In the 9th minute of the kick-off, Chinese women's footballer No. 17 Huo Yuexin dribbled into the box with her left foot into the far corner of the goal through the right wing, and the ball went into the net 1:0. The Chinese women's football team took the lead. In the 22nd minute, after the Chinese women's football team received the ball in the penalty area, the inverted triangle passed to the line of the small penalty area, the Philippine player made a mistake, the ball came to the feet of No. 10 Zou Mengyao, Zou Mengyao pushed into the net with her right foot, 2:0. 36 minutes: After No. 11 player Ouyang Yuhuan dribbled into the box, his right-footed cross accurately found No. 17 Huo Yuexin, Huo Yuexin stopped the ball and turned around, calmly kicked the ball into the goal 3:0. Completed his own bunching of the game.
Yibian fought again, the Chinese women's football team firmly controlled the game, probably in physical decline, the Chinese women's team members made many active mistakes in attack, most of the time chose to pass the ball in the backcourt. It wasn't until the 69th minute that the midfielder accurately found No. 19 Lu Jiayu with a half-high goal, and Lu Jiayu chose to pick the ball past the goalkeeper and hit the ball into the goal, 4-0. In the 74th minute, the winger sent a direct pass, and No. 11 Ouyang Yuhuan calmly pushed 5:0. In the 80th minute, China won a penalty opportunity, and No. 6 Qiao Ruiqi hit a 6-0 penalty. China scored three goals in 11 minutes.
In the end, the Chinese U20 women's team defeated the Philippines U20 women's football team by 6 goals, and won the first match.
Looking back at the whole game, the difference between the two sides in terms of strength was very large, and the Philippine team basically did not have a good ability to organize the attack. In the first half, the Chinese U20 women's football team was very active in the attack on the left wing, and the midfielders played a good role in passing the ball behind them, and repeatedly passed good balls through the organization of the midfield, and their ability to score goals in sports battles is worthy of recognition. This game is equivalent to a military training, the Chinese team has been run-in to a certain extent in organizing the attack, and the defense has not withstood a worthwhile test. And there were many active mistakes in the organizational attack in the second half, which should be avoided in the following games.
The Chinese U20 women's football team won the first match smoothly, and in the following matches, the Chinese team must finish first in the group stage to have a chance to enter the second stage of the Asian Cup qualifiers. In the second phase, a total of eight teams will be divided into two groups, with the top two teams from each group participating in the final stage of the Women's U20 Asian Cup, which will be held in Uzbekistan next March, along with the host Uzbekistan, Japan, North Korea and South Korea. The Chinese women's football girls have successfully achieved the first step, and I hope that our women's football girls will continue to work hard and achieve good results in the next matches.
Finally, I wish all the girls a happy Goddess Day.
