BSS, Dhaka :
High flying Bangladesh Women’s Football team will take on Turkmenistan Women’s Football team in their ultimate Group-C match of the AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2026 Qualifiers scheduled to be held at the Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon, Myanmar today.
The match will kick-off at 6:30pm (Bangladesh Standard Time).
The girls in red and green must be looking forward to finish the last group match with a winning note after they made the nation proud creating history by qualifying in the AFC Women’s Asian Cup 2026 final stage for the first time in the history of country’s women’s football following their outstanding 2-1 victory over hosts Myanmar held on Wednesday last.
A 2-2 draw between Bahrain and Turkmenistan in the same group confirmed Bangladesh as group champions with one match to spare. This result secured Bangladesh’s qualification for the 2026 AFC Women’s Asian Cup final stage.
Forward Ritu Porna Chakma, the architect of Bangladesh’s victory, played important role behind the Bangladesh crucial victory scoring two goals in the match. Bangladesh Head Coach Peter Butler must be expecting the same performance from Ritu Porna Chakma in the third match against lowest ranked of the group Turkmenistan (141).
