In the first round of Group E of the Women's Asian Football Confederation (WAFC), South Korea Women's Football Team won 3:0 against Myanmar Women's Football Team, and the Philippine Women's Football Team beat Hong Kong Women's Football Team 3:1, which will decide who will be the first place in this round. Both teams have participated in the final week of the Women's World Cup, so this is expected to be a tough match for both sides.
The Philippine women's soccer team will face South Korea in the second round of Group E of the Women's Asian Football Confederation (WAFC) on Monday (25th), and the winner of this match will have a great chance to decide who will get the first place in the qualifying round. In the final week of the World Cup in July, the Philippines defeated New Zealand in the group stage with a number of out-of-town players, a historic first win that demonstrated the team's progress in recent years. The squad for the Asian Games includes eight players from the World Cup roster, with 16-year-old midfielder Pasian being the most anticipated. The 16-year-old, who is still in high school in the United States, was recruited for this year's Asian Games due to her performance in the U20 Women's Asian Cup, and the coach has spoken highly of her. Even though the Philippines are seeded second in this year's tournament, their strength is not to be taken lightly.
