India U20 Women’s Team Improved Significantly Since The AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers: Head Coach Alexandersson
AFC Asian Cup: The India U20 women's team head coach Joakim Alexandersson said that the team has made significant improvement since their qualification for the Women's Asian Cup 2026 in Thailand and are "not overwhelmed by the challenge" of being drawn alongside the strongest teams in Asia.
The U20 women arrived in Bangkok 13 days before the first game, which will give them valuable time to adjust to the climate. However, it is not too different from the conditions in Kolkata, where the team trained after their return from Sweden earlier this month.
India’s preparation has spanned continents and styles, beginning with high-intensity friendlies closer to home. Matches against Uzbekistan in Mahabalipuram and Kazakhstan in Shymkent last year offered contrasting tests, but both were essential in shaping the team’s tactical maturity.
