In the second matchup of the Asian Cup group stage, China locked up the top spot in the group early with a lopsided 7-0 win thanks to a hat trick from captain Wang Frost.
After the game, head coach Shui Qingxia commented: "Today's game was very crucial for us, despite the relatively weak strength of the opponent, we were still well prepared and respected the opponent. We played better and better throughout the game, although we were a bit impatient in the first half and didn't handle the ball calmly enough, but this is also an opportunity to learn and correct. I hope the players can keep improving through this game and I am very satisfied with their performance."
Talking about the performance of team member Zhang Rui, Shui Qingxia praised, "She has performed very well, wearing the No. 10 jersey, which is as important as No. 7 Wang Frost. She has a lot of experience in the game and is an indispensable member of our team. At the moment, we put her on the bench for the time being because the opponents in the group stage are weaker, and we hope that she can gradually adapt and lead the young players in the coming matches."
In response to the Indian team that we will face in the next round of group matches, Shui Qingxia said, "We hope that those players who did not play before will get the chance to appear on the field, keep good condition and get ready for the next matches. We may make some tactical adjustments and hope that those players who didn't get a chance to play in the first two matches will get more chances to show off."
