From 21-26 May, there will be six matches played in each of three venues: Dhaka, Bangladesh, West Bank, Palestine and Manama, Bahrain. From 5-9 June, another six matches will be played in Amman, Jordan.
“I would like to congratulate all Asian nations participating in FIFA Women’s World Cup Canada 2015 Qualifiers beginning this 21 May,” said Peter Montopoli, Chief Executive Officer of the National Organising Committee. “In two short years, our country will welcome at least one of these 16 nations for a once-in-a-lifetime experience at the FIFA Women’s World Cup Canada 2015.”
Indeed, as five teams are set to qualify out of the AFC Women’s Asian Cup in 2014, at least one team from this round of Asian Qualifiers in 2013 will make it all the way to the FIFA Women’s World Cup Canada 2015.
