The Bangladesh U-20 women’s football team defeated Jordan 2-0 in their second preparatory match in Thailand ahead of the AFC U-20 Women’s Asian Cup, scheduled from April 1 to 18, 2026. This marks Bangladesh’s first appearance in the tournament. Earlier, the team drew 1-1 with India in their opening warm-up match. The Bangladesh Football Federation confirmed the result of the closed-door match, where Mamuni Chakma and Suravi Akand Preeti scored. Federation president Tabith Awal is currently in Thailand to motivate the players.

Bangladesh has been placed in Group A alongside hosts Thailand, China, and Vietnam. The team will open their campaign against Thailand on the tournament’s opening day, followed by matches against China on April 4 and Vietnam on April 7.

The top four teams from the Asian Cup will qualify for the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, meaning a semifinal berth would secure Bangladesh a place in the global event.
