Football: India Women's Team Set Sights On FIFA Series With One Eye On The Future
Mullick Memorial All India Police: Around 32 days after their AFC Women's Asian Cup campaign drew to a painful end, the Indian women's national team will begin a new chapter with renewed vigour at the FIFA Series 2026 Kenya. The Blue Tigresses will face the hosts in their opening game at the Nyayo National Stadium in Nairobi, Kenya, on Saturday.
The disappointment of missing out on the knockout stage hasn't fully buried yet for the players, but they are well aware that the end of one chapter is the beginning of the next, and that's the main motivation ahead of the four-team friendly tournament.
Crispin Chettri, who is once again at the helm of affairs as the head coach of the Blue Tigresses, stressed, "The idea is to start building for the future already. For the next AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2029 qualifiers and the 2031 World Cup qualifiers. We have to begin now."
