Paris Olympic Qualifiers: Chinese women’s football team defeats Thailand to retain hopes of qualifying
Xinhua News Agency, Xiamen, October 29 (Reporters Xiao Shiyao and Li Haoze) On the 29th, in the second round of the Asian second stage (Group B) of the Paris Olympic Women’s Football Qualifiers in Xiamen, the Chinese women’s football team, which lost the first game, defeated the Chinese women’s football team 3:0. The Thai team will extend its hope of advancing to the third stage of the Olympic preliminaries until the final round.
According to the rules of the competition, only the first place in the group and the second place in the group with the best results among the three groups can participate in the third stage of the Olympic preliminaries. In the first match on the 26th, the Chinese women’s football team lost 1:2 to the North Korean team.
This game is against the “fish belly” Thailand team, which was defeated by the South Korean team 1:10 in the first round. The Chinese team’s goal is to win as much as possible and strive for a goal difference. The head coach of the Chinese team, Shui Qingxia, has significantly adjusted the lineup. Xu Huan replaced Zhu Yu as the starting goalkeeper, and overseas teenagers Zhang Linyan, Shen Mengyu, Tu Linli and veteran Zhang Rui entered the starting lineup.
In the 15th minute, Chen Qiaozhu made a long pass from the left into the penalty area, and Yan Jinjin made a volley and scored, breaking the deadlock for the Chinese team. Throughout the first half, the Chinese team blasted the opponent’s goal 12 times, but missed many scoring opportunities. The Thai goalkeeper also made several wonderful saves, but the Chinese team was never able to expand the score.
At the beginning of the second half, the Chinese team still had no score. It was not until the 68th minute that Chen Qiaozhu passed and shot from the left wing. The ball drew a strange arc and flew into the far corner. The Chinese team expanded the score to 2:0. Two minutes later, Shen Mengyu broke through from the right and passed a cross. Uzhugumula, who came on as a substitute, pushed in front of the goal and scored another goal. The final score was locked at 3:0.
In the whole game, the Chinese team shot 15 of 29 times on target. Although they won the game, the goal difference obviously failed to meet pre-match expectations.
In another match in Group B, South Korea and North Korea drew a goalless draw 0:0. At present, the South Korean team and the North Korean team both have 1 win and 1 draw with 4 points, ranking the top two in the group. The Chinese team ranks third with 1 win and 1 loss with 3 points. The Thai team has two consecutive losses and is at the bottom of the group.
On November 1, the Chinese team will face the South Korean team, the first in the group, in the final round of the group stage, and the North Korean team will face the Thai team. If the Chinese women’s football team wants to advance to the next stage of the competition, they must defeat the South Korean team in the final round and hope that the results of other games will be favorable to them.
