FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup: Kalinga Stadium In Odisha Capital To Host India Matches; Check Schedule

Bhubaneswar: Kalinga Stadium in Odisha’s capital will host India’s matches of the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup India 2022.

FIFA has announced the schedule for the biennial youth tournament. Kalinga Stadium will host the matches on October 11, 14 and 17.

Goa will play home to both semi-final matches and the final of India’s first-ever FIFA women’s tournament will be played at Navi Mumbai on October 30.

“Extremely happy and excited to learn that Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar will be hosting group matches of India in the upcoming FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup India 2022.
