中国女足亚洲杯逆转夺冠 铿锵玫瑰再绽放
China came back from two goals down to defeat Korea 3-2 in a dramatic final and win their record-extending ninth title of the AFC Women’s Asian Cup here on Sunday. Korea looked to be winning the championship after taking a 2-0 lead at half-time but China fought back after the break through goals from Tang Jiali, Zhang Linyan and Xiao Yuyi, leading China to the championship.
China entered the final chasing a record-extending ninth AFC Women’s Asian Cup title against a Korea side who had never won a championship. China, unbeaten in seven previous meetings with Korea, started the game brightly and had the first look at goal within seconds when Wu Chengshu played the ball to Tang Jiali just above the area, but the midfielder’s effort was easily dealt with by Korea goalkeeper Kim Jung-mi.
Korea began to see more of the ball as the half progressed and were rewarded with their first look at goal in the 27th minute, with Lee Geum-min breaking into the box before sending a cross to Choe Yu-Ri to score the 100th goal of the tournament. With Korea in the ascendancy, China survived a scare at the half-hour mark, goalkeeper Zhou Yu pulling off a point-blank save to deny Lim Seon-Joo’s header off a free-kick(任意球). China, however, suffered more troubles in the closing stages of the first half when a VAR review saw Korea awarded a penalty(点球) following Yao Lingwei’s handball.
Despite trailing(落后) 2-0, China did not give up. On the contrary, this made the players more determined and bolder. In the 66th minute, Tang Jiali scored for China. Four minutes after the first goal, Tang scored 2-2 for China.The Steel Roses were in full control of the game in the last 15 minutes. Their fast movement of the ball in front of the box in the 92nd minute pierced the defensive line of South Korea before Xiao Yuyi broke the opponents’ goal for the third time in added time.
