SAFF U19 Championship: India Take On Nepal With Top Spot In Mind
SAFF U19 Championship: Having already booked their place in the SAFF U19 Championship semifinals, India will aim to secure the top spot in Group B when they face Nepal at the Golden Jubilee Stadium here on Tuesday.
India kicked off the tournament with an 8-0 rout of Sri Lanka last Friday in head coach Bibiano Fernandes' first match after his return to the national youth team setup. On Sunday, Nepal also thrashed Sri Lanka, winning 5-0 to knock them out of the tournament, while guaranteeing semifinal qualification for both India and themselves.
"Both teams won their first games by big margins. But we don’t read too much into the scorelines. Every match is different, and Nepal have shown that they are a strong and competitive side. They were solid against Sri Lanka and created several chances.
