Quarter-final line-up confirmed

Monday, May 7, 2018

Bangkok: After 21 matches and 152 goals in six days, the field at the AFC Women’s Futsal Championship Thailand 2018 has been reduced to eight, with four mouth-watering quarter-finals set for Wednesday.

The top three finishers from the 2015 edition – Islamic Republic of Iran, Japan and Thailand - have all advanced to the Knockout Stage, with Vietnam joining Asian women’s futsal’s big three as group winners.

They will be joined by two tournament debutants, Indonesia and Chinese Taipei, who finished runners-up in Groups A and B respectively, while China PR and Uzbekistan also earned places in the second round.

A huge Wednesday of quarter-final action gets underway when Iran take on China at Bangkok Arena, with Japan to do battle with Uzbekistan at the same time.

Vietnam will look to continue their perfect record against Indonesia in an all-Southeast Asian affair later that evening, and all eyes will be on hosts Thailand when they meet Chinese Taipei in front of a fervent home crowd at the Huamark Indoor Stadium.

The victorious sides will be back on court in the following day’s semi-finals, with the AFC Women’s Futsal Championship 2018 to be decided in what promises to be a final to remember on Saturday.
