The teams are meeting in the semi-finals for the second year. Last year, Nepal upset the defending champions with a 1-0 victory, a first in SAFF history. Rashmi Kumari Ghising’s important goal in injury time led Nepal into the final. This gives India a reason to defeat Nepal, thereby enhancing the atmosphere of this year’s game.
Nepal has remained strong since its 2022 semi-final victory. Inspired by this momentum and the backing of their home audience, Nepal’s squad has the opportunity to repeat history by reaching the final and maybe winning their first SAFF Women’s Championship championship.
India, the five-time winners, will seek to prove their power and avenge last year’s defeat. Both sides are familiar with each other’s abilities and plans, laying the groundwork for a close encounter. With Nepal’s unshakable passion and India’s resolve to regain their crown, spectators can expect a semi-final full of talent, rivalry, and memorable moments.
