For the fourth time, a three-round qualification tournament, through which two teams qualified for the Olympic Games, served as qualification for the women's tournament at the 2016 Olympic Summer Games for the teams from the AFC area . For the first time, the Lao and Sri Lankan national soccer teams took part. Because the final round was scheduled for the end of February and beginning of March 2016, China and Japan could not take part in the Algarve Cup as in previous years . The same applies to Australia as well as South Korea and the Cyprus Cup , which have participated there in recent years.

mode

Of the 18 teams entered, the five strongest teams Australia , the People's Republic of China , Japan , North and South Korea qualified directly for the third round. Thailand and Vietnam did not have to intervene until the second round, in which one team could qualify for the third round. Since Bahrain withdrew after the draw, the remaining ten teams initially played in the first round in a group of four and two groups of three, three teams for the second round.
