Chonburi: Japan made it three wins from three at the AFC U-19 Women’s Championship Thailand 2019 as they beat China PR 2-1 on Sunday to progress to the semi-finals as Group B winners and edge ever closer to a sixth Continental crown.
Goals either side of the break eventually proved the difference as Japan claimed a hard-fought victory against a spirited China outfit who exited the competition after being consigned to a third-place finish following Korea Republic’s win over Myanmar in the group’s other game.
Japan will now meet Australia in the last four on Wednesday as both sides look to reach the tournament’s November 9 title showdown and, in the process, guarantee themselves a place at the 2020 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup.

Chonburi: Karly Roestbakken has praised Australia’s never-say-die attitude after their late goal against Vietnam sent them through to the last-four of the AFC U-19 Women’s Championship Thailand 2019 on Saturday.
Needing only a draw to progress, Vietnam were seven minutes away from making their first knockout stage appearance until the last gasp drama at a rain-soaked IPE Chonburi Stadium.
However, Mary Fowler’s strike in the 83rd minute would ultimately break Vietnam hearts as Leah Blayney’s charges held on to stay in sight of both the Continental title and a place in the FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup 2020 Nigeria.

Chonburi: DPR Korea underlined their dominance in Group A at the AFC U-19 Women’s Championship Thailand 2019 on Saturday as they beat Thailand 3-1 at the Chonburi Stadium to head into the semi-finals on the back of a third successive win.
Already assured of top spot and a place in the competition’s last four, the East Asians were rarely troubled by the host nation as a superb first-half display laid the foundations for the 2007 champions to claim yet another deserved victory.
Son Sung-gwon’s charges – who are set to face one of either Japan, Korea Republic or China PR in the next round on Wednesday – now stand one win away from guaranteeing themselves both a place in the Continental final and a place at the 2020 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Nigeria.
