Myanmar to face Iran in Paris Olympic Women’s Football Qualifiers

Previously, host Myanmar is in the first stage of Group (B) of the 2024 Paris Olympic Women’s Football Tournament Asian Zone Qualifiers with Iran, Bangladesh, the Maldives and Bangladesh.

 

As Bangladesh, and the Moldovan teams withdrew from the tournament, only the host Myanmar and the Iran will con­tinue to compete.
