Striker Nahomi scored the winner in the 62nd minute with a low shot after receiving a pass and dribbling past a defender in the box. Nahomi missed two clear one-on-one chances in the first half, but finally made it.

Japan controlled the game with their neat passes and smart moves, while the Matildas had to rely on the counter-attacks. Japn created much more chances than their rivals with their trademark wall passes at the edge of the box.

In the clash between the Korean neighbours, S. Korea went ahead only 5 minutes into the game with Lee Hyun Young's strik in a melee. But DPR Korea rallied and quickly netted three goals in the next 51 minutes.

Ra Un Sim, Choe Mi Gyong and Hwang Song Mi were the scoring heroins for DPR Korea. S. Korea narrowed the gap in the 61st minute on a mistake by their rivals.

DPR Korea can qualify if they beat Japan in the next game, while the South Koreans were denied the chances of qualifying with merely 1 piont from three games.
