Naegohyang won the Asian Women’s Champions League after beating Tokyo Verdy Beleza 1-0 in Suwon. Captain Kim Kyong Yong scored just before half-time, sealing the title in the club’s first year in the competition.

The win sends Naegohyang into next year’s Fifa Women’s Champions Cup and came during a rare cross-border sporting appearance. The final also carried political tension, with no official away supporters allowed because of travel restrictions.
