Captain Rupali Akter competed in her final international appearance as the team briefly held advantages during the contest before superior tactics from their opponents shifted control. Defender Mst Srity Akhtar acknowledged the victors possessed better velocity and coordination while expressing pride that earning hardware on home ground would encourage young women to pursue the sport. Chinese Taipei advances to meet defending titleholders India in the championship match. [/QUOTE]
