Chinese women s football team draws Japan 1-1, the situation of the championship is subtle

The 2025 Women's East Asian Cup continues, and the second round of the competition begins. On the afternoon of July 13, the Chinese women's football team confronted the Chinese Taipei women's football team, and the Chinese team won 4-2, accumulating 4 points in the first two games, and is currently ranked first in the standings.

However, whether the Chinese team can maintain the top position depends on the next showdown between the Korean women's football team and the Japanese women's football team. If the Korean women's football team wins 1-0, the Chinese women's football team will remain first; but if the Japanese women's football team wins, the Chinese team will lose its lead. Even if the game was tied, the Chinese women's football team still could not maintain its top spot.

Judging from the current situation, some people believe that the victory of the South Korean team is more beneficial to the Chinese team, but the actual situation may not be so. If the South Korean team wins, they will also have 4 points in both games, but they can almost be regarded as a stable victory against the Chinese Taipei Women's Football Team in the last round. The Chinese women's football team faces the Japanese team in the last game, which is obviously more difficult.

Therefore, the ideal situation is that the Korean women's football team shakes hands with the Japanese women's football team, which makes the Japanese team's goal difference advantage regain the top spot, the Chinese women's football team ranks second, and the Korean women's football team ranks third.

In this way, in the last round of the competition, the situation of the championship was confusing, and China, Japan and South Korea all had the opportunity to win the championship.

After 90 minutes of fierce battle, the Japanese team led 1-0 in 85 minutes, but was tied by the South Korean team at the last moment. Both sides shook hands 1-1 and made peace, each scored 1 point.

In this game, the two teams showed fierce attacks. The Korean women's football team, who plays at home, is not conservative, while the top Asian team in Japan cooperates carefully and has a smooth ball path, while the Korean team runs and presses with all their might. The two sides are back and forth, and the scene is very hot.

In the 37th minute of the first half, the game situation was opened. The Japanese team launched an attack, Aikawa Yona made a cross, Narimiya scored a shot after stopping the ball, helping the Japanese team lead 1-0; the lagging South Korean team tried to counterattack, but the Japanese team was determined to increase the score advantage, causing a stalemate between the two sides. In the 86th minute of the game, the South Korean team scored another goal, Wen Eun-joo passed the ball, and Zheng Duobin scored a close-range shot, helping the Korean women's football team equalize the score 1-1.

The 1-1 score of the two sides shook hands and made peace changed the competition for the championship of this year's East Asian Cup. The Chinese women's football team and the Japanese women's football team have the same record in the first two games, tied with the top two points, the South Korean team ranked third with two consecutive draws and two points, and the Chinese Taipei team ranked last.

However, in the final round of the game, the Korean women's football team is expected to easily defeat the Chinese Taipei team, with no suspense in the harvest of 3 points. Therefore, the most likely situation is that the Chinese women's football team tied with the Japanese women's football team, and all three teams will eventually settle with 5 points.

To sum up, if the Chinese women's football team can defeat the Japanese team, they are expected to win the East Asian Cup. Given that the Korean women's football team is expected to have a high probability of winning the Chinese Taipei team, if the Chinese women's football team wants to win the championship in an upset, they need to defeat their opponents 1-0. Are you looking forward to this hope? come on!
