International football competition
The 2016 AFF Women's Championship was the ninth edition of the AFF Women's Championship, an international women's football tournament organised by the ASEAN Football Federation (AFF). The tournament was held in Mandalay, Myanmar[1][2] between 26 July to 4 August 2016.[3]
Thailand successfully defended their title after beating Vietnam in the final via penalty shoot-out.
Participating teams
8 teams were set to take part in the tournament in Mandalay, Myanmar. Indonesia was suspended by FIFA at the time the group was announced. Australia sent its under-20 team. Japan, Chinese Taipei and South Korea were invited to participate as the eighth team in the tournament.[3] However, none of the three confirmed their participation and Timor Leste was named as the tournament's eighth team.[4]
Squads
Group stage

Controversy
In the 6th round of the penalty shoot-out of the final between Vietnam and Thailand, Thailand's Rattikan Thongsombut shot out while Vietnam's Nguyễn Thị Liễu effort hit goalkeeper Waraporn Boonsing and rolled its way past the goal line before being shot away by the goalkeeper. Myanmar referee Thein Thein Aye first recognised for a goal but reversed her decision after discussing with two lineswomen, Singapore's Mohd Nasir and Merlo Albano from the Philippines stated the ball had not entirely crossed the goal line.[6] Vietnamese media calls the event as a "stolen championship".[7]
