India U17 Women face Lebanon U17 Women in their final AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup 2026 Group B fixture on Friday, May 8, at the Suzhou Taihu Football Sports Centre Pitch 8 at 1:00 PM IST.
After back-to-back defeats against Australia (0-2) and Japan (0-3), the Young Tigresses still remain in contention for a quarter-final spot as one of the best third-placed teams.
With a superior goal difference of -5 compared to other groups, India’s qualification scenario remains alive, especially depending on results elsewhere.
A win over Lebanon could be enough to seal a historic knockout-stage berth, with several permutations still in play across Group A and Group C.
India will also be watching other group results closely, as even a draw or a narrow win for Myanmar against Vietnam could swing the equation in their favour.
For India, competing in their first AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup in 21 years, this is a defining moment. The side has already shown resilience against top opposition, with the young goalkeeper from Rajasthan standing out against Japan before the defence eventually cracked after holding firm for nearly an hour.
