Where was the goalie?

Today we look at the 2003 Asian Womens' Football Confederation Championships. The Tournament was played in Thailand. The Tournament ran from June 8 until June 21.

On the second day of play at Rajamangala National stadium in Bangkok, the team from Japan defeated the team from the Phillipines by a score of 15-0. For this tournament this really was not an unusual score as there were six games in the tournament where one team scored at least 11 goals in one game.

All of the big score games were shutouts on top of that. This game was not even the highest scoring game, just the first of six. Neither team was involved in another big score game. The team from North Korea won three of the games, winning them by a combined score of 43-0!! The North Korean team still finished pool play with a record of 3-0-1 as they were tied by the team from South Korea. The North Korean team then went on to win the tournament. They beat the team from China in the finals.

Tomorrow we look at the opening of one of todays great horse racetracks.
