Sports Update: Women's Asian Cup Semifinals

Japan secured a spot in the Women’s Asian Cup final with a 4-1 victory over South Korea on Wednesday, Oct 18, 2023. The match took place at Sydney’s Stadium Australia. Riko Ueki and Maika Hamano scored first-half goals for Japan, setting the team on course for the win.

Japan believed they had extended their lead to 3-0 before halftime when Aoba Fujino scored in the 43rd minute. However, the goal was disallowed following a VAR review. Japan, ranked seventh in the FIFA world rankings, increased their tournament goal tally to 27 when defender Saki Kumagai scored in the 75th minute. South Korea's Kang Chae-rim scored in the 78th minute, marking the first goal conceded by Japan in the tournament. Remina Chiba restored Japan's three-goal lead with a goal in the 81st minute.

The final will take place on Saturday, Oct 21, 2023, in Sydney. Japan has previously won the Asian Cup finals in 2014 and 2018, but did not reach the final in 2022. Australia, the other finalist, has reached the championship match four times since joining the Asian confederation, winning once in 2010.
