    Head Coach Joakim Alexandersson Credits ‘Arrows Project’ For Maiden AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup Qualification

    The India U17s: Indian women's football is celebrating its best year yet. For the first time, all three national teams - senior, U20, and U17 - have qualified for the 2025 AFC Women’s Asian Cup. This marks a historic hat-trick, as all three teams will compete against Asia’s top sides next year.

    The India U17s are the latest among these to secure their tickets to the AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup China 2026, winning both their matches against Kyrgyz Republic and Uzbekistan by 2-1 in Bishkek earlier this week.

    Head coach Joakim Alexandersson, who guided the U17s to their first-ever successful qualification campaign at this age group, feels that it is now time to build onwards from what has been achieved. “We joked after the match that the job is done for now, but we only look to move forward from here. It was good to see the character that they showed, especially since many of these girls were a bit nervous as they hadn't experienced matches like these before.
