AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup: India Brace For A Stern Test Against Japan
Suzhou Taihu Football Sports Centre: The Indian women's football team faces strong contenders Japan in their second match of Group B at Pitch 4 of the Suzhou Taihu Football Sports Centre in Suzhou, China, on Tuesday as their journey in the AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup 2026 now moves into a far sterner phase.
After a 0-2 defeat to Australia in their opening Group B fixture, India find themselves in a situation where every goal carries weight. Goal difference is crucial, and a couple of double-digit scorelines popped up on the first matchday, including Japan's 13-0 win over Lebanon. In Group C, DPR Korea defeated Chinese Taipei 10-0.
Earlier on Tuesday, Australia will face Lebanon in the other Group B game.
