Jakarta, CNN Indonesia

Australian women’s national team star and Arsenal player Caitlin Foord considers a number of teams in Asian Cup Women 2022, including Indonesian Women’s National Team will play defensively.

The Women’s National Team occupies Group B with one of the strong teams who are also candidates for the 2022 Women’s Asian Cup winners Australia, Thailand and the Philippines.

In this event, Australia set the target of winning after becoming a champion runner up in the 2018 edition after losing to Japan.

At the 2022 Women’s Asian Cup, Australia is said to have a star-studded front line, including Arsenal’s Caitlin Foord and Cortnee Vine.

“He has a very good idea and I think he will help us a lot in this tournament by destroying teams and opponents,” Foord said. Canberratimes.

“We’ll probably have a lot of teams defending and trying to make it difficult for us. He [Fjellstrom] already started to plant seeds with ideas and solutions how to solve it,” said Foord added.

The failure to win the 2018 Women’s Asian Cup made Foord hungry for a title in this year’s edition. Since joining the Australian women’s national team in 2011, Foord has never won, her best being runner-up in 2014 and 2018.

“We’ve failed twice already, and now we don’t want to do it again. That [juara] is the goal of this tournament: we want to win,” said the 27-year-old striker.
