Asian Games: Indian Women's Football Team Lose 1-2 To Chinese Taipei In Group B Opener

By IANS News September 21, 2023 • 20:30 PM View: 617

Xiaoshan Sports Centre Stadium: Indian women's football team suffered a heart-breaking 1-2 loss to Chinese Taipei in their opening game in Group B at the 19th Asian Games, here on Thursday.

Anju Tamang's opener was cancelled out by two late Chinese Taipei goals to leave India empty-handed, yet with the belief that they weren't too far from one of the top teams on the continent.

Thomas Dennerby's team, playing its first match since March, got off the blocks quickly as Manisha Kalyan almost created a goal-scoring opportunity for the returning Bala Devi in the first minute.
