North Korea's Chosun Central TV is broadcasting the U-20 women's soccer match against China in the group stage of the Asian Cup.


After North Korea was confirmed to advance to the finals of the U-20 Women's Football Asian Cup, it belatedly began to liven up the mood by broadcasting a recording of the group stage.


On the afternoon of the 14th, the previous day, Chosun Central TV said in 'Athletic Games News', "We will show the match between the Korean team and the Chinese team in Group 2 of the 2024 Asian Football Confederation Women's Asia Cup Under-20 Tournament," without editing. The game was recorded and broadcast for about a minute.


The 2024 AFC U-20 Women's Asian Cup was held in Uzbekistan on the 3rd and will run until the 16th. The top four teams will qualify for the 2024 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup.


With eight countries advancing to the finals, North Korea went through the group stage, defeated South Korea 3:0 in the semifinals on the 13th, and is currently facing the final against Japan.


When North Korea's advancement to the finals was confirmed, the news of the victory was immediately reported the next day, and TV also began broadcasting it belatedly, appearing to be in a self-congratulatory mood. As North Korea has not been able to advance to international competitions for several years due to COVID-19, just advancing to the finals is a huge achievement for North Korea.


It also appears to be raising the spirit of cheering among residents ahead of the final against Japan on the 16th. Since they already faced Japan once in the group stage and won 1:0, their confidence in winning seems high.


North Korea will also play two 2026 North and Central America World Cup Asian region second qualifying matches against Japan on the 21st and 26th. In particular, a game is scheduled in Pyongyang on the 21st, so the cheering atmosphere is expected to be significant.

Coincidentally, last month, they lost 1-2 to Japan in the women's soccer final qualifying round for the 2024 Paris Olympics, frustrating their ability to advance to the Olympic finals for the first time in 12 years. 고스톱
