Now, the Indian eves are set to leave for UAE on Thursday, September 30, where they will play two friendlies against the United Arab Emirates and Tunisia.<\/p>\n<p>After the two friendlies in the UAE, the Indian Women\u2019s Team will then travel to Bahrain to play two more friendlies against Bahrain and Chinese Taipei.<\/p>\n<p>That is likely to be followed by a brief stint in Sweden, where they are set to face two Damallsvenskan league teams, subject to permission to Indian citizens arriving in Sweden from relevant authorities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;\u201cBesides the four matches against UAE, Tunisia, Chinese Taipei and Bahrain, we also have two confirmed matches against two Swedish premier league teams. We are in the process of sorting out the travel protocol to the country as entry of Indian citizens to Sweden is still not open yet,\u201d Head Coach Thomas Dennerby stated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI appreciate the efforts of the AIFF in finding us teams willing to play matches against us under such circumstances,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;\u201cWe have been training in Jamshedpur for a month, in our quest to prepare for the AFC Women\u2019s Asian Cup India 2020. Unfortunately, the current pandemic situation is tough and the reality is that there are different quarantine restrictions in different countries which kills many options for the Indian teams as entry for Indians in some countries is either still not yet open, or involves a major quarantine period,\u201d Dennerby expressed.<\/p>\n<p>The Head Coach had already spoken about the importance of playing quality matches to get the girls match fit ahead of the big tournament, and he believes that the friendlies in UAE and Bahrain will help the team assess itself.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;\u201cThe matches in UAE and Bahrain will allow us to judge ourselves where we stand against some good competitive opponents. Teams need to build up their defence, and also the build-up process, and all of that is judged in an international match,\u201d the coach expressed.<\/p>\n<p>The Indian Women\u2019s Team, as part of their preparation for the AFC Women\u2019s Asian Cup India 2022, will be based out of Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, training in facilities provided by the Jharkhand Government.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;\u201cIt\u2019s difficult to arrange such things during a pandemic, and it has been very helpful to have the facilities to train in Jamshedpur. The Jharkhand Government has left no stone unturned in providing us with the necessary facilities, and we are all thankful for that,\u201d he said. \u201cI hope with the correct mixture of training and friendlies against quality opponents, we can be more than ready for the Asian Cup.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AIFF Media Team JAMSHEDPUR: After setting up camp in Jamshedpur, Jharkhand for around a month, the Indian Women\u2019s Team will travel abroad on an exposure tour as part of their preparation for the AFC Women\u2019s Asian Cup, which is set to take place in India next year.
