Women's Asian Cup 2026: India Ready To Face Dynamic Japan After Vietnam Debacle
Asian Cup Australia: The Indian senior women’s national team will face the mighty Japan in their second Group C match of the AFC Women’s Asian Cup Australia 2026 at the Perth Rectangular Stadium in Perth, Australia, on Saturday. India currently stand third in the group despite the 1-2 loss against Vietnam in their first match, after Japan defeated Chinese Taipei 2-0.
Historically, Japan, eighth in the FIFA Women’s World Rankings, have had a clear advantage over the Blue Tigresses (ranked 67th), having won all three previous meetings. The Nadeshiko have scored 19 times in these three meetings. The last one was a 0-7 loss in the Olympic qualifiers in 2023.
India has had two days to recover from their match against Vietnam, and getting the players back into prime condition for the Japan encounter is high on head coach Amelia Valverde’s list of priorities.
