In a rollercoaster match that had fans glued to their screens, China and South Korea kicked off the EAFF Women's East Asian Cup with a nail-biting 2-2 draw! 🌟 The game, played in front of a roaring home crowd in South Korea, saw both teams trade blows like a K-drama plot twist—just without the slow-mo tears.
China struck first 🚨 with Yao Wei’s *chef’s kiss* long-range rocket in the 15th minute. But South Korea, channeling their inner underdog energy, equalized at the worst/best possible moment—deep into first-half stoppage time—thanks to Jang Sel-gi’s clutch finish. Cue the halftime drama!
Yao Wei turned playmaker in the second act, setting up Shao Ziqin’s header to reclaim the lead. But just when victory seemed certain, Ji So-yun said 'nope' with a last-gasp screamer in the 93rd minute. Talk about edge-of-your-seat action! 🎢
China’s coach Ante Milicic praised his squad’s grit: 'We’re young, we’re learning, but wow—this one stings. Still, taking the lead twice against a powerhouse like South Korea? That’s growth.' Meanwhile, star player Wang Shuang hinted at bigger things ahead: 'We’ll keep grinding. The chemistry’s coming—just wait.' 🧩
With the Asian Cup looming, China’s squad is proving they’re no understudies in Asia’s football theater. Next up: More group-stage fireworks! 🔥
