The winning team at the Captain I Wayan Dipta Stadium will not only have bragging rights as the third best U17 women\u2019s team in Asia, but also qualify for the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup Dominican Republic 2024.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe watched and analysed all the China PR matches, as we had a feeling that we would meet,\u201d said Korea Republic head coach Kim Eun-jung. \u201cThey are a good offensive team but like every team, have strong and weak points, so we will try to utilise what we have learnt.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 2009 AFC U-16 Women\u2019s Championship winners lost 3-0 to Japan in the semi-final, and Kim said her team are determined to deliver against China PR.<\/p>\n
\u201cNow we cannot back down. All the players are prepared and focused for the next match. I believe the players will fight well and we can go to the World Cup.\u201d<\/p>\n
China PR head coach Gary van Egmond said it will be a big occasion for both teams.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re obviously very excited as there\u2019s a World Cup place hanging in the balance,\u201d said the 58-year-old. \u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to the contest because Korea Republic are a strong opponent.\u201d<\/p>\n
The former Australian national team player knows his opponents well, having analysed the way they play and studied their key players individually.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere are no more secrets. Everyone knows what the other teams look to do. But the focus is on ourselves, we want to do the things we do well.\u201d<\/p>\n
After their run to the final came to an end with a 1-0 semi-final defeat to DPR Korea, Van Egmond said he focused primarily on his team\u2019s mindset.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re not really going to see improvements between the semi-final and the game (playoff). Ours is in the mindset. The belief that we have among each other, between the coaches and players and from the federation and the players. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe believe all the support and knowledge will give us the way to success.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
