Under head coach Thomas Dennerby, the Indian women’s football team has lost both their Group C matches and is now out of contention for the Paris 2024 Olympics.
World No. 61 India will head into the Uzbekistan game after losing 1-3 to Vietnam in their previous Group C match at the Lokomotiv Stadium Tashkent on Sunday.
