Bangladesh women's football team made history as they qualified for the AFC Women's Asian Cup for the first time.
The Bangladesh women's football team made history on Wednesday, securing qualification for the AFC Women's Asian Cup for the first time following a remarkable 2-1 win over a much higher-ranked Myanmar at the Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon.
The crucial win significantly boosted Bangladesh's chances of progressing, but confirmation of their qualification only came later in the day, after Turkmenistan and Bahrain played out a 2-2 draw.
