Disappointed that India missed chances galore in the goal-less draw against Iran in the AFC Women's Asian Cup, head coach Thomas Dennerby says his side will need to make a few tweaks to its attack as it aims for full points against Chinese Taipei on Sunday.

A dominant India were let down by their forwards who failed to score despite attacking incessantly, especially in the second half, to share the spoils with Iran. The hosts need a win against Chinese Taipei to keep their quarter-finals hopes alive. "We have to work on our finishing and go at it again against Chinese Taipei and get the three points," Dennerby said.

"I think we have a solid defence, and defended well whenever they tried to counter-attack. A few tweaks to our attack, and we will be ready for our next opponents," the Swede said. India completely dominated the Iranians in the second half with impressive passing and build-up play but they failed to find the opposition net
even once.
