History makers
Naegohyang's title-winning effort is all the more remarkable considering they are the first team from DPR Korea to play in an AFC women's club competition. Having conquered the continent, Ri Yu Il’s side will now attempt to create more history when they compete in the FIFA Women’s Champions Cup 2027.

Remarkable Kim
Kim Kyong Yong was named Most Valuable Player and the midfielder deserved the accolade. Not only did she score four of Naegohyang's tally of 12 goals, the 24-year-old displayed her leadership qualities throughout the tournament.

High scoring tournament
Holly McNamara took the Topscorer award with semi-finalists Melbourne City FC finding the back of the net 18 times, five more than runners-up Tokyo Verdy Beleza. A total 78 goals were scored across the 25 matches played.

Natural predator
Naegohyang's Kim - naturally - had the most number of shots with 14, with teammate Kum Ok Choe and Tokyo Verdy's Yuzuho Shiokoshi one behind. McNamara had 10, with four of them settling in the net. Tokyo Verdy led the overall count with 102, with Naegohyang a distant second with 77.

Pass master
Tomoko Muramatsu made a tournament-high 491 passes, with her Tokyo Verdy teammate Rin Sumida on 391. The Japanese club's overall tally was 3,729, way ahead of Naegohyang's 2,459. Tokyo Verdy had a passing accuracy of 83%, just ahead of Melbourne City's 81%.

Defensively tight
It was only fitting that Naegohyang lifted the trophy after showing defensive resilience from the preliminary round, which they topped with three wins, 23 goals scored and none conceded. They were equally resilient in the group stage, with the 4-0 defeat to Tokyo Verdy the only blemish. The only goal they conceded in the knockout stage was in the 2-1 win against Korea Republic's Suwon FC Women.

Cleans sheets
Shu Ohba led the way in the clean sheets department with three but unfortunately for the Tokyo Verdy custodian, the one she conceded in the final ultimately decided the destination of the trophy. It was only the second goal the Japanese side conceded in the tournament.

Fairplay
The red card was kept safely in the pockets of the referees as it was not needed even once throughout the tournament. The yellow card, however, was seen 27 times.
