FIFA Friendlies: Indian Women's Team Ready for Round 2 Against Uzbekistan
The Statesman Kolkata
|June 04, 2025
Regrouped and refreshed after their 0-1 defeat against Uzbekistan in the first of their two FIFA Women's International Friendlies, the senior Indian women's national team is gearing up for Round 2 against the White Wolves.
The Blue Tigresses face Uzbekistan in the second friendly at the Padukone-Dravid Centre for Sports Excellence in Bengaluru, on Tuesday (June 3), with the kick-off slated for 16:30 IST. The match will be streamed live on the Indian Football YouTube channel.
India head coach Crispin Chettri, who dished out debuts to three players in the first match (Manisha Naik, Malavika P., and Priyadharshini Selladdurai), expressed his desire to continue in the same experimental vein for the second match as well.
"Both these matches are completely experimental for us. Giving chances to new players and seeing their mindset at this level is of paramount importance," said Chettri. "Maybe we could experiment with a certain change in the system as well, but the core philosophy will remain the same.
"We must maintain composure, and not just kick the ball and hope things will happen."
