India had only lost one match in the tournament, but they faced a tough challenge against China, the Olympic silver medallists, who came into this game on fire.

China defeated India. It was their first loss of the tournament.

China winning 4-1 in their second Super 4s match at the 2025 Women’s Asia Cup held at the Gongshu Canal Sports Park in Hangzhou.

India’s lone goal came from a brilliant shot by Mumtaz Khan, but India’s squad suffered from some preventable mistakes.

Earlier in the day, Korea and Japan, who both lost their matches against China and India on Wednesday, ended up in a 1-1 draw, which means China has secured a spot in the final with two more Super 4s matches left to play.

Now, India needs to regroup and defeat Japan to ensure their place in the final, which is definitely going to be a tough challenge.

The tournament is really important for all the Asian teams since it secures an early spot for next year’s Hockey World Cup.
