The Black Princesses could have all-but advanced to the next stage of the competition in Canada if they had secured a win in Toronto against the 2006 tournament winners.
However, Ri Un-Sim inspired the Asian side to victory after scoring twice in either half of the game with Jo Son-Yon finishing off from a penalty.
Her first was the opener which arrived after 6 minutes when she stooped low to direct a header in off the far post of goalkeeper Victoria Agyei's goal.

Then in stoppage time and two goals to their advantage got a penalty which was converted by Jo.
