AFC Women's Champions League prelims have started! Here are the links..
I don't remember how long ago it was, but it wasn't that long ago, AFC made it a requirement that hosting countries provided a way to watch each match until the AFC took over streaming responsibility. Most games have commentary, though there are some exceptions.
The caveat is that the only country that provides English commentary is Malaysia. But that being said, every match is available in full with the exception of the East Bengal vs. Rajshahi Stars match in Malaysia.
The links provided will go directly to the beginning of each video, though some matches don't begin for some time (notably the Sabah match). Each match moving forward should be on the same youtube channels as these matches, so check the schedule (warning: scores are on this link! I'm sure you can find non-spoilery links) and keep a watch on the "live" tabs of these youtube channels.
Only the winner of each group will advance to the tournament proper. As of this post, we will have seen every team play at least once. Some of the scores are incredibly lopsided, but I think that's to be expected on two accounts; 1) these are the prelims and very few teams qualified directly to the main tournament, so you have semi-final and final-ready teams who are in the prelims and 2) many of these nations are relatively new to women's soccer.
Group A: Malaysia: Commentary in English
East Bengal (India) vs. Rajshahi Stars (Bangladesh): Game note: we join the match already at the 26th minute)
Saba FC (Malaysia) vs. Rovers (Guam): Game note: the commentary was probably supposed to begin at the 1 hour mark, but it takes a few minutes to get the sound to work. You can see the starting XI and part of an interview without sound.
Group B: Kyrgyzstan: Interviews are held in English, commentary held in what I believe is Kyrgyz because I don't think that's Russian...). Both matches have a standard opening sequence, pre and post-match interviews and full commentary.
TSL (Hong Kong) vs. Phnom Penh Crown (Cambodia)
Kaya-Iloilo (Philippines) vs. Ilbirs Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan)
Group C: Uzbekistan: This particular channel already has future streams listed for the rest of the group c prelims so you don't need to use the spoiler link above, and it's easy to get the correct time. Also, no commentary for these matches.
Banaat (UAE) vs. Royal Thimphu College (Bhutan): Game note, we join in the second minute and the scoring graphic thinks we're in Spain, for awhile. I'm not sure how long
Nasaf (Uzbekistan) vs. Master (Laos)
Group D: Thailand: Commentary in Thai.
4.25 (North Korea) vs. Kharaatsai (Mongolia): Game note, Naegohyang, also from North Korea, is qualified through being the current champions so this is the first opportunity for a nation to have two teams in the tournament proper, should 4.25 qualify.
College of Asian Scholars (Thailand) vs. S'Amuser (Timor): Game note, this video is approximately one hour longer than the 4.25 vs. Kharaatsai stream but I'm not sure why. I haven't watched it, yet.
Group E: Tajikistan: Commentary is, I presume, in Tajik.
Etihad (Jordan) vs. Al Nassr (Saudi Arabia)
Bam Khatoon (Iran) vs. CSKA Dushanbe (Tajikistan): Game note, I do not yet know if the regular Bam Khatoon players are on this team after Australia's offering of immigrant status to some of the national players. Many of the national players played for Bam Khatoon over the last few years.
Group F: Myanmar: I'm presuming the commentary here is in Burmese.
Ayeyawady (Myanmar) vs. Albirex Jurong (Singapore): Game note, I haven't watched all of the games, yet, but I believe that Ayeyawady still has the highest attendance. I'm not sure, but I remember last year the Myanmar side had an incredible atmosphere at their matches.
