2010 in Chinese football involved the national competitions of the Chinese football league system and the national team.
The final competition was held in Tokyo, Japan in February 2010. The North Korean women's team withdrew from the tournament in January 2010, and were replaced by the Chinese Taipei side, the runners-up from the semi-final tournament.
Note: China PR and Korea Republic finished with identical records. With both teams facing each other in the final group match, a penalty shootout was taken place on the spot to determine the group winner. Korea Republic won 8âÂÂ7 on penalties.
Both teams ended the group stage with equal points, goal difference and goal scored. A penalty shootout was therefore taken immediately after the 90-minute match to determine the group winner in which Korea Republic won.
