Japan Hammer India 11-0 in Women's Asian Cup Mismatch

Japan dominated possession with 78% and scored 11 goals including two hat-tricks, securing top spot in Group C and a quarterfinals berth.

  • On March 7, 2026, Japan routed India 11-0 at Perth Rectangular Stadium to reach the AFC Women's Asian Cup quarter-finals.
  • Given Japan's higher FIFA ranking and resources, they entered as heavy favourites, ranked 59 places above India in Group C.
  • With 35 shots to zero and 80% possession, Hinata Miyazawa and Riko Ueki each scored hat-tricks while Kiko Seike, Yuzuki Yamamoto, Yui Hasegawa, and Maya Hijikata also scored.
  • The win leaves Japan top of Group C with an unsurpassable six points and goal difference +13, while India were eliminated from the competition after the 0-11 defeat.
  • With Japan already assured of top spot, India must beat Chinese Taipei by six goals next Tuesday to keep advancing while other group matches determine third-place qualifiers.
