India’s Young Tigresses Roar for Asian Cup Glory

India’s Under-20 women’s football team, the Young Tigresses, face a crucial test in their quest for the AFC U-20 Women’s Asian Cup. Their journey begins in Group D of the qualifiers, held in Yangon, Myanmar.

The team’s first match is against Indonesia on August 6th. This will be followed by encounters with Turkmenistan on August 8th and the hosts, Myanmar, on August 10th, all at the Thuwunna Stadium.

Only the group winners and three best runners-up across all eight groups will advance to the Asian Cup in Thailand next April. The Young Tigresses will need to perform at their peak to secure a place.

This qualifying tournament holds immense significance for Indian women’s football. A successful campaign will not only boost the team’s morale but also provide invaluable international experience, shaping the future of the sport in the country. The nation’s hopes are riding on these young players.
