Ardalan:
Match Against Japan Was a Valuable Experience for Iranian Women's Football
Following Iran’s match against Japan in the AFC U20 Women’s Asian Cup Qualifiers, head coach Niloufar Ardalan described the game as a challenging but beneficial experience for Iranian football.
Ardalan stated:
“We knew it would be a tough match and had prepared the team for difficult conditions.”
She added:
“I believe this game was a very valuable experience for our country’s football. It will benefit not only the U20 women’s national team but also the senior national team. It clearly shows the gap between Iranian women's football and Asia’s top team, and highlights the long journey ahead for development and progress.”
