The International Women’s Championship final is set, with both teams securing their spots after winning two matches each. Nepal came through with hard-fought 1-0 wins over Kyrgyzstan and Lebanon, while Myanmar, ranked 55th in FIFA, dominated with 3-1 and 5-0 victories over Lebanon (134th) and Kyrgyzstan (128th).
Everyone kinda knew Myanmar was gonna be in the final from the start, since they’re the best team here. So the other three Nepal, Lebanon, and Kyrgyzstan were just trying to grab the last spot. And well, Nepal somehow did it.
Today's match (Feb 23) is just a way for Nepal’s coach, Rajendra Tamang, to see what Myanmar plays like before the actual final. On the other side, Myanmar’s coach, Tetsuro Uki, is feeling real confident. He even put in some random young players against Kyrgyzstan on Feb 20 and still won 5-0.
Nepal will be hungry for their first ever victory against Myanmar, and the home crowd will be hoping for a breakthrough moment in this high stakes tournament.
