AFC Women's Asian Cup India 2022 Qualifiers - Group H: Win over Palestine not enough to keep Malaysia in the running

West Bank: Malaysia defeated Palestine 2-0 in their AFC Women’s Asian Cup India 2022 Group H qualifiers on Wednesday but victory was not enough to keep their qualification hopes alive.

Having lost 4-0 to Thailand in their opening tie, Malaysia needed to win by a bigger margin and hope for Palestine to defeat their Southeast Asian rivals in the final Group H match on Saturday but it was not to be.

Defeat doesn’t end Palestine’s hopes as they can still advance if they beat Thailand.
