In the second half, the Chinese women's soccer team didn't get conservative because of the lead, but became more courageous.

The win not only puts the Chinese women's soccer team at the top of the table for the time being, but it also adds confidence to the next match between China and Thailand women's soccer team. Although Thailand is the weakest team in Group B, anything is possible in soccer. The Chinese women's soccer team can't afford to be gullible and must go all out. If they can beat their rivals, not only will they be able to lock up their place in the tournament one round earlier and secure a place in the quarterfinals, they will also be able to face their last opponent in the group, the Japanese women's soccer team, in a more relaxed frame of mind.
Throughout the game, the Chinese women's soccer team played with high tactical quality and teamwork ability, whether it was fast counterattack or positional attack, all played vividly. The outstanding performance of the young players in the key moments makes everyone expect the future of Chinese women's soccer.
