Chang proud as Wuhan Jiangda send title warning; Nasaf live up to Vladislav’s expectations

Wuhan: Wuhan Jiangda Women’s FC underlined their determination to defend the title with a dominant performance in Group B of the AFC Women’s Champions League™ 2025/26, finishing top and sending a warning to their challengers. 

A 4-0 win against Islamic Republic of Iran’s Bam Khatoon FC on Sunday, which was achieved despite not being at full strength, showed the China PR side will be a team to avoid when the knockout stage draw is held in January.

Wuhan Jiangda topped the standings with seven points, three ahead of PFC Nasaf of Uzbekistan and India’s East Bengal FC.
