Football: India Beat Jordan 2-0 In Pink Ladies Cup 2025
Al Hamriya Sports Club Stadium: The India senior women’s national team began its campaign in the Pink Ladies Cup 2025 with a 2-0 victory against Jordan at the Al Hamriya Sports Club Stadium on Thursday. The Blue Tigresses led 1-0 at half-time. Midfielder Naorem Priyangka Devi (23’) and winger Manisha (54’) scored, to give India their first win with Crispin Chettri as the head coach.
The Blue Tigresses began on a cautious note, the majority of their intent coming from the left flank with Priyangka playing the fiddle for Manisha to run at the Jordan defence. However, it was Jordan forward Roukayah Al Fararjeh, who had the first real opportunity of the match as she was played through behind India’s last defender Sanju. The forward made her way into the box but was soon stopped by India goalkeeper Shreya Hooda.
Priyangka put the Indian nerves at ease in the 23rd minute, when she bought the raffle from around 25 yards out. She did indeed get the rub of the green, as Jordan goalkeeper Alshalabe misjudged the bounce of the ball and bundled it into the goal.
