New Delhi, Sep 25 (PTI) The Indian team for the upcoming FIFA Under-17 Women's World Cup which the country will host has improved in defending but needs to work on "attacking and some technical details", head coach Thomas Dennerby said on Sunday.

Dennerby, who is currently camping in Spain along with the players for an exposure tour ahead of age-group showpiece, said the fitness level of the team will also not be a problem.

"We are well organised and have a good fitness level. The fitness level won’t be a problem. We have good sessions of defending so it will be hard to score on us but we still have to utilise our chances on the pitch. We are playing at a higher tempo and higher pace than before," Dennerby said.
