Beforehand the match Japan-New Zealand was, based on the ranking, assumed to be decisive on which of the teams should qualify together with Australia.
New Zealand started the match very efficient scoring their first goal after 2.20 and their 2nd at 7:10, the only shots towards the Japanese net during this period.
This put a lot of pressure on the home team and the ecstatic crowd had a tough time until Japan could reduce to 1-2 after 13:17. No more goals were scored in the first period.
Team Japan came out as a completely different team in the second period and more or less outplayed New Zealand with speed turning the match to 6-2 after two periods.
The first half of the third period was very intense and New Zealand had several chances to score and get into the match again. Instead it was Japan who could score on a rebound from the goalkeeper and that goal set the match. From this point the game turned quite sloppy, still with some chances to score at both ends, but no more goals were scored. The result 7-2 for Japan means that both Japan and Australia has qualified to the U19 WFC 2017 Final Round in Växjö, Sweden 3-7 May 2017.
