Dhaka, July 5 - The European Union (EU) has congratulated Bangladesh Women’s Football team for three consecutive victories and securing a spot in the Asian Cup finals.

"What a hat-trick! Huge congratulations from the EU Delegation to the Bangladesh Women’s Football Team for 3 consecutive victories and securing a spot in the Asian Cup finals," said the EU Embassy in Dhaka in a message on Saturday night.

"Each goal you score kicks down barriers and inspires girls across Bangladesh — and beyond — to dream big and play bold," said the Embassy.

"From all of us at the EU Delegation to Bangladesh — keep shining, keep scoring, and keep breaking limits," reads the message.

High flying Bangladesh Women’s Football team qualified for the 12-team final round of the AFC Women’s Asian Cup Australia 2026 in style with an all-win record outplaying Turkmenistan by 7-0 goals in the last group match at the Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon Saturday evening.
