China's win sees Japan women eliminated from Rio soccer (Reuters)
(Reuters) - Japan women's soccer team, the former world champions, have failed to qualify for the Rio Olympics despite still having two matches left to play in the Asian qualifiers. China eliminated them with their 1-0 win over South Korea on Monday. "Nadeshiko" Japan won the 2011 Women's World Cup, finished runner-up at the 2012 Summer Games while also reaching the final at last year's World Cup against the United States.
