In the second half of the contest, the North Korean team's tactics remained the same, but the Japanese team was the first to knock on the door of the opponent in a seemingly unfavorable situation, as if in a repeat of the first half drama. Moeko Tanigawa's clever corner kick to the left was met by substitute Haruka Osawa, who once again gave Japan the lead with a precise header. As the DPRK women's soccer team tried to launch a counterattack, Moeaki Tanigawa and Rei Chiba scored twice in just three minutes to make the score 4-1. !

Although Kim did not concede a goal in the next 7 minutes, Li Wei made the substitution in order to maintain the team's dignity. Jin Yinhui was in tears on the field, both aggrieved and unwilling. !

Even with a three-goal lead, they remained focused on the game and counterattacked so sharply that they hit almost every shot. The fate of the North Korean women's soccer team in this tournament was the same as that of the Chinese women's soccer team in the semifinals. Despite trailing by three goals and losing the chance to turn the game around, the DPRK women's soccer team didn't give up, and they still fought hard in the remaining time, trying to create a threat to the Japanese women's soccer team in the offensive end. Unfortunately, they were unable to break the deadlock and score again. With the referee's whistle blowing, the match came to an end. The Japanese women's soccer team defeated the North Korean women's soccer team by a score of 4-1, and successfully won the gold medal in women's soccer at the Hangzhou Asian Games. In today's soccer world, the success rate of quick counterattacks has long surpassed the rate of ball possession. The average age of the Japanese women's soccer team is less than 22 years old, and the "Third Team" proved this with practical actions. However, surprisingly, the North Korean women's men's soccer still won the applause of the audience. Later this month, the Chinese women's soccer team will usher in the Paris Olympic Games qualifier. Facing the North Korean women's soccer team, one of the rivals in the same group, Chinese women's soccer team head coach Shui Qingxia, as well as members of the team, watched the performance of the North Korean women's soccer team at the Huanglong Stadium. How to deal with the challenge of the North Korean women's soccer team has become an important issue that Shui Qingxia needs to address urgently.
