Do yellow cards from the group matches accumulate/carry over into the next stage?
Asking for a friend
#PRKvCHN #WAC2026
Well, that was completely unhinged.
#PRKvCHN
Can these games hurry up and end please? I actually don't know how much more I can take tonight??? #BANvUZB #PRKvCHN #WAC2026
An extremely passionate Chinese supporter was pleading with the $10 and hour soaking wet security guard that the goal was offside.
I asked the guard if he has the authority to overturn goal decisions.
He smiled and shook his head.

#PRKvCHN #afcwomensasiancup #WAC2026 just over 9000 not bad on a wet Monday night
Imagining an alternate universe in which China just… took the ball from the middle of the field and kicked it into the open net while PRK were having a sook on the sideline.
Is that a thing that could have happened?

Sure the yellow card at the start was a red card tackle, but I've been enjoying the competitive and physical nature of this #PRKvCHN game. Probably my favourite of the tournament so far.

#PRKvCHN #afcwomensasiancup #WAC2026 China are now dominating in the first quarter of this half. Fearce defensive and attack too
And they've just come back out for the second half and are pretending like nothing what-so-ever has happened. Madness #PRKvCHN #WAC2026
Gonna be tough for Australia no matter who we play. Both are lighting fast and show no mercy. China edge it with the crowd support though.

Timeline of events:
45+4, China thought they scored but was flagged for offside.
45+6, goal was given via VAR.
45+7, DPRK REFUSED to play.
45+8, the coach for DPRK gets a YC
45+9, Ref blows for HT.
Bloody hell.
#PRKvCHN #WAC2026
So to summarise, VAR overturns the tightest of tight offside calls in favour of China. North Korea is furious and refuse to re-take the field. The coach gets shown a yellow card, and then rather than resume play with stoppage time left to play, the referee just blows for half-time #PRKvCHN #WAC2026
Need to note down that complaining for 10 minutes about a goal against me is a great way to waste time and make half time happen.
#PRKvCHN #WAC2026
Guys, it just happened!!
#PRKvCHN
It's all not kicking off 🤣
#DPRK refusing to restart. Ref should have booked them all instead of blowing for half-time.
#WAC2025 #PRKvCHN
#PRKvCHN #afcwomensasiancup #WAC2026 that was a bizarre way to end a half of football
