Japan won its second straight Women's Asian Cup on Friday night with a 1-0 victory over Australia in the tournament final.
Substitute Kumi Yokoyama scored the 84th-minute winner at Amman International Stadium in a replay of the 2014 final, when Nadeshiko Japan edged the Matildas 1-0.
Japan was on defense for the majority of the match as Australia took 22 shots to Nadeshiko's five. Japan, however, converted one of its few chances after Yokoyama was introduced in the 72nd minute.
