AFC Women's Champions League
The result meant Tokyo Verdy topped Group C with seven points while Suwon finished third after Naegohyang Women’s FC of DPR Korea defeated Myanmar’s ISPE WFC 3-0 to take second place.
Suwon will now have to wait for the conclusion of the other two groups to know if they can advance to the quarter-finals as one of the two best third-placed sides.

Tokyo Verdy came into the tie holding a three-point advantage at the summit and wasted an early chance to take the lead when Suwon failed to deal with Kwon Eun-som’s inviting cross with Rin Sumida pulling her effort wide.
The Japanese outfit saw another chance go to waste three minutes later when Suwon’s poor clearance fell as far as Danelle Tan, who fired just wide off the right post before missing the target again in the 20th minute with a headed attempt.
Suwon gradually grew into the game with Mileninha in the thick of things, first setting up Jeon Min-ji, who saw her shot saved by Tokyo Verdy custodian Shu Ohba before Mileninha had a go moments later with her headed attempt sailing over the bar.

The second half continued in a similar vein with Tokyo Verdy maintaining most of the attacking pressure, Yuna Aoki and Sumida both testing Suwon keeper Kim Kyung-hee in the 50th minute.
Suwon kept absorbing Tokyo Verdy’s waves of attacks with the Japanese side almost finding a way through in the 82nd minute but Lee Su-in intercepted Shino Matsuda’s dangerous cross into the six-yard-box.

Cho So-hyun came close three minutes later when she turned past her marker before seeing her shot saved by Ohba as the teams took home a share of the spoils.
