South Korea Beats the Philippines 3-0 for a Second Straight Group A Win at the Women’s Asian Cup

South Korea secured back-to-back wins with six goals scored in Group A, placing them atop and advancing closer to the Women's Asian Cup quarter-finals.

  • On Thursday, South Korea's women's national team booked their quarter-final spot with a 3-0 win over the Philippines at Queensland's Gold Coast.
  • After a 3-0 win on Monday, South Korea secured their second tournament victory and lead Group A with six goals from two wins.
  • Early in the second half, Mun Eun-ju volleyed home from close range after a scramble in the box to seal the 3-0 win.
  • The Philippines now face a precarious path to the last eight after this defeat and an earlier 1-0 loss to Australia; South Korea's match against Australia's Matildas in Sydney on Sunday will decide Pool A's top spot.
  • Moments after Olivia McDaniel's fingertip save, South Korea scored from the corner as Mun Eun-ju pounced, with Australia, the 2023 World Cup semifinalist, as favorites for Sunday’s clash.
