Asian Games Women's Football: India vs Thailand - Build-up
The Indian women’s football team endured a 1-2 defeat to Chinese Taipei in their first match of Group B at the 19th Asian Games, which took place on Thursday. Anju Tamang’s early goal was negated by two late goals from Chinese Taipei, resulting in India coming away empty-handed.
However, they still maintain the belief that they are not far behind some of the top teams in the continent. Their opportunity for redemption lies ahead as they must demonstrate their capabilities against Thailand on September 24th in order to salvage their position.
The Indian women’s team are currently under immense pressure, with their position in Group B hanging in the balance. Their upcoming match against Thailand this Sunday requires them to bring forth their full strength and capabilities. In a tournament where nearly every match is a do-or-die scenario, a draw or loss against Thailand would result in the Indian team being eliminated from the competition.
Thailand, in contrast, will be seeking to deal a crushing blow to Thomas Dennerby’s side, especially since the Blue Tigresses are down in morale after having suffered a defeat in their initial match against Chinese Taipei. Thailand’s goal is to eliminate the Indian team from the tournament.
Manisha Kalyan appeared to be in discomfort and was subbed off against Chinese Taipei. She was seen cramping at the sidelines during the match. The think-tank will be hopeful for her to start on Sunday. For Thailand, they reportedly have a full roster to choose from.
