After a captivating debut in the FIFA Women's World Cup, the Philippine women’s national football team is back on the big stage when it makes its maiden appearance in the Asian Games.

The Nationals dominated the Hong Kong side, 4-nil, in their previous encounter in April during the first round of the AFC Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournament and marched into the next stage of the event. At least six players from the World Cup lineup also remained in the Philippines and had a brief camp along with the under 17 team.

With newly appointed coach Mark Torcaso racing against time after the short turnaround, even he will be put on acid test as his two-year stint officially begins at the Asiad.
