SEOUL, Feb 10, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - A dispute that saw South Korea's players threaten to boycott next month's Women's Asian Cup over "discriminatory conditions" has been resolved, football officials in the country said Tuesday. South Korea's national women's squad last year complained of "poor" treatment by the Korea Football Association (KFA) compared to their male counterparts. A statement from September, made public in January, said players would boycott games and training ahead of the Asian Cup if the KFA did not address their concerns over travel, training facilities and accommodation. The KFA said that starting from this year, the association would provide business-class travel for all women's team squad members when long-haul travel was involved. The squad will convene at South Korea's national training centre on Sunday before leaving for Australia four days later.
