The CFA released a statement on Thursday, noting that all team members passed a 2019-nCoV virus screening before departure to Australia, "The examination result showed that all samples are negative."

"We understand the concern of the Queensland government, the media and local people over the risk of the coronavirus and will work closely with all stakeholders to fulfill all quarantine requirements," CFA vice president Sun Wen said on Thursday.

"All the players and staff members are in good health, and we can only stay and eat in a separated floor in the hotel," Sun said about their current living conditions. "Obviously there are difficulties, both physically and mentally, but our players are in good spirits."

The CFA's top official also noted that the inability to train is the team's biggest problem right now and one that desperately needed to be solved, urging for joint efforts to ensure the team's pre-match training activities. "We can't use the gym in the hotel, and are not allowed to conduct outdoor training until the local authorities approve."

The AFC women's football qualifiers for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo consist of two groups, with South Korea hosting Vietnam and Myanmar in Group A. The top two teams from each qualifying group will advance to a play-off round to determine which two Asian teams will join hosts Japan at the Games.

China's football governing body confirmed on Wednesday that four players including star striker Wang Shuang will have to miss the competition after being affected by the country's ongoing nationwide coronavirus control.
