JAKARTA - The second match of the 2026 U-20 Women's Asian Cup Qualification was completed by the U-20 Indonesian Women's National Team. Facing Myanmar U-20, the match ended in a draw with a score of 2-2.

Taking place at the Thuwunna Stadium, Myanmar, on Friday, August 8, 2025, Indonesian Western Time (WIB) afternoon, Garuda Pertiwi made a comeback. Before finally completing the draw match, the U-20 Women's National Team was 0-2 behind.

Garuda Pertiwi started the match well. A careful game is shown to see a golden opportunity.

The Red-White Squad prefers to wait and take advantage of counter-attack opportunities.

In the opposing camp, Myanmar, which relied on Yin Loon Eain in attack, immediately pressed from the first minute to find a quick goal in the first ten minutes.

Luckily, the U-20 Women's National Team's meeting defense was still able to stem every attack.

Even though they occasionally try to retaliate through a quick counter-attack, Garuda Pertiwi's attack actually looks rushed in making decisions. As a result, Akira Higashiyama's team actually found it difficult to create golden opportunities.

However, the deadlock finally broke out in the 38th minute. Myanmar was awarded a free kick which was executed perfectly by Yin Loon Eain.

His shot went to the near post and was blocked by Alleana Ayu Arumy. Unfortunately, the ball slid fast and crossed the line. Myanmar was winning 1-0.

There were no additional goals until the first half ended. The Indonesian U-20 Indonesian Women's National Team trailed 0-1 in the first half.

Entering the second half, the Indonesian Women's National Team U-20 made changes by including Ajeng Sri Handayani. However, Indonesia actually conceded again in the 53rd minute.

Through an attack from the wing, Daisy Aung sent a cross into the Indonesian penalty box. The ball was headed by Myanmar players who then hit the Indonesian defender and made the score change to 2-0.

Even so, Garuda Pertiwi did not give up. Gea Yumanda and his friends tried to appear more attacking to find opportunities. Although the opponent stopped several times, slowly Myanmar's defense began to have gaps.

The Indonesian U-20 Women's National Team finally scored in the 68th minute. Taking advantage of the mistakes in Myanmar's back line, Ajeng Sri Handayani fired hard into the upper right corner of Myanmar. The score changed to 1-2.

Ajeng's goal made Garuda Pertiwi's confidence increase. In the 71st minute, Jazlyn made a speculative shot from the middle of the field until the ball failed to be anticipated by Hla Hla Htwe and made the score change to 2-2. The score lasted until the final whistle.
