The 2014 AFC Women's Asian Cup, the 18th edition of the competition, was a women's association football tournament competed by national teams in Asian Football Confederation (AFC). It served as the qualification for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup. It was played from 14 to 25 May 2014 in Vietnam.

Reigning world champions Japan defeated the reigning Asian champions Australia 1–0 in the final to secure their first continental title.

Qualification

Main article: 2014 AFC Women's Asian Cup qualification

The final tournament was competed by eight teams, four of which were automatically qualified though their 2010 placement, while the others were determined via a qualification tournament.

North Korea was banned from the tournament due to the sanction on their doping cases in 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup. Hosts Vietnam had to play the qualifying round; in case of a non-qualification, another host would have been chosen.
