New Delhi, June 24: The Indian women’s football team will look to beef up its attack when it takes on USA in the second match of the three-nation U23 tournament at Laröds IP, Sweden on Saturday.
It was an injury-time goal which had spoilt India’s broth and despite putting up a spirited effort, they lost 0-1 to Sweden in the opening match and the Suren Chettri-coached side will look to produce the goods against USA.
“If we want to win, we need to score,” Chettri said in a release.
“We will play the way we played against Sweden and focus on attacking more this time.
“It was sad to lose the last game but the girls had put up their best effort against the number 2 in World FIFA ranking.
“We played a really good defending game, whatever skills we had we tried to show on the pitch and we will be doing the same tomorrow,” the head coach maintained. (PIT)
