In Group C, the Vietnamese women's team lost 0-2 to the Japanese women's team. Meanwhile, the Uzbekistan women's team won 3-0 against the Indian women's team.
Thus, the Japanese women's team topped the group and won the right to enter the third qualifying round of the 2024 Paris Olympics. The Vietnamese women's team was eliminated after only ranking 3rd in this group.
Uzbekistan women's team qualified for the next round as the best runner-up in the group. They had 6 points, equal to the second-placed team in Group A, the Philippines, but with a better goal difference. The second-placed team in Group B, South Korea, had only 5 points and was also eliminated.
Vietnam women's team was eliminated.
Among the teams in Southeast Asia, the Philippine women's team had the best performance in the second round of the 2024 Paris Olympics qualifiers. They beat Chinese Taipei 4-1 and Iran 1-0, earning 6 points. However, a heavy 0-8 defeat to Australia caused the Philippines' sub-index to drop. Therefore, 2 wins were not enough for the reigning Southeast Asian champions to advance.
The Thai women's team can be considered the unluckiest team among the three Southeast Asian teams in the second qualifying round. They fell into a very difficult group with China, South Korea and North Korea. The Thai women's team lost 1-10 to South Korea in the opening match. In the second match, they lost 0-3 to China. In the third match, the Thai women's team lost 0-7.
At the end of the second qualifying round for the 2024 Paris Olympics, the Thai women's team did not get any points and conceded 20 goals, scoring 1 goal. However, these are still valuable experiences for the young players of the Golden Temple country during the transition period.
For the Vietnamese women's team, Huynh Nhu and her teammates have the right to feel regretful after doing well and only losing 0-2 to Japan. But before that, the 0-1 loss to Uzbekistan put coach Mai Duc Chung and his team at a disadvantage.
In the end, the four teams that made it to the third qualifying round of the 2024 Paris Olympics women's football in Asia are Japan, Uzbekistan, North Korea and Australia. The teams are divided into two pairs, playing the first and second leg, the winning team will qualify for the Olympics in France.
