It was one-way traffic from the beginning.

Odisha FC began their AFC Women’s Champions League 2024-25 Group Stage campaign with a disappointing 17-0 defeat against Urawa Red Diamonds Ladies at the Thong Nhat Stadium on Sunday.

Throughout the game, Urawa Red Diamonds put up a dominant performance and showed their superiority.

Odisha FC were struggling from the start and things went from bad to worse in no matter of time. The Japanese side toyed with them, which resulted in a disappointing defeat.

From the outset, the Japanese side demonstrated their superiority, but Shreya Hooda made several critical saves to keep the scoreline from escalating further.

Early on, Jennifer showcased a brilliant solo effort down the middle, though her run was ultimately halted by a Urawa defender. Kiran Pisda also displayed a commendable performance throughout the match.

This was a disappointing result for Odisha FC, who were hoping to make an impact in the AFC Women’s Champions League.

The defeat for Odisha FC was a harsh reality check, and they will need to improve significantly in their remaining group-stage matches if they are to have any chance of progressing to the knockout stages.

Odisha FC were completely outclassed and could not find a way to stop the Urawa attack. Urawa Red Diamonds, on the other hand, were impressive in their win.

They are one of the favorites to win the tournament, and they showed why with their dominant performance. They will be a tough team to beat for any opponent.

Urawa Red Diamonds’ dominant performance was a testament to their strength and experience, and they will be a team to watch throughout the tournament.

Despite their collective efforts, Odisha could not find the back of the net. They will be eager to regroup and seek redemption in their next match against Vietnam’s Ho Chi Minh City Women’s FC on Wednesday.
