Tehran Times – VIETNAM, Korea Republic maintained their perfect record in the AFC U19 Women’s Championship Thailand 2019 qualification, moving to within touching distance of the Finals with a 2-0 win over Islamic Republic of Iran on Sunday.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A goal in each half secured victory for Hur Jung-jae’s side, who had begun the final stage of qualifying with a 9-0 win over Lebanon on Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iran’s defeat comes as a blow to their chances of reaching Thailand 2019, but it is by no means a fatal one, with their destiny to be decided on the final Matchday on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the two-time Asian champions at this age level, the Koreans began strongly and took the lead through Jo Min-ah, who found the back of the net in the 28th minute to give the East Asian side a 1-0 half-time lead, the-afc.com reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Iran had performed well in the second half of their opening-night tie with group hosts Vietnam, and they did the same here, with only a late second goal from 18-year-old midfielder Hye Jong giving Korea Republic breathing space with five minutes remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Korea Republic will face Vietnam in Tuesday’s final Matchday, while Iran will be fighting for qualification against Lebanon on the same day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
