Ultimately, South Korean women's national soccer team, directed by Yoon Deok Yeo, took away one point in the standings as did the North Korean team they were up against in their match on February 29 in Osaka, Japan as both teams tied 1:1.


Although the North Korean team ranks sixth in the FIFA ranking and is way ahead of the South Korean team with a record of 14 wins, 1 tie, and 1 loss, it was unable to secure the win. Thirty-two minutes into the first half, South Korea's Jung Seol Bin put in a goal against North Korea.  However, in the second half, the other team managed to get one in past the South Korean goal keeper.  The end result was a tie.
