Iran crush Malaysia in Under-20 women's Asian Cup opener
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia began their Under-20 women's Asian Cup qualifying campaign with a 3-0 loss to Iran at the KLFA Stadium in Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday. Iran hit Malaysia with goals from Maryam Dini (13th and 27th minutes and Asal Ghajarian (90th+1) in the Group F match. The Young Tigress lacked bite upfront and even missed a penalty kick by Tegen Butler in the 49th minute. Malaysia coach Cameron Ng said the team executed their game plan well, but could not convert the chances. "I could not fault the girls for sticking to the tactics, giving their 100 per cent. Of course we made mistakes, football is all about mistakes and how we improve the mistakes. "We didn't take our chances and Iran deserved the win," Cameron said. In an earlier Group F match, Japan whipped Guam 5-0 at the same venue. Malaysia will play heavyweights Japan at the same venue on Friday before wrapping up their group stage against Guam on Sunday.
