Suzhou Taihu Football Sports Centre: India kept their quarter-final hopes alive with a 4-0 win against Lebanon in Group B of the AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup China 2026 here at the Suzhou Taihu Football Sports Centre on Friday.
The win meant a third-placed finish for India behind Japan and Australia, but the South Asian side will have to wait for the Group C outcome to learn if this will be enough to make it into the quarter-finals .
With both sides needing victory to keep their hopes alive, it was Lebanon who almost found a way through in the fifth minute, with captain Gia Frangieh sending a neat lob into the box for Yara Geitani, but India goalkeeper Munni Bhambhu was quickly off her line to swoop the ball.
