By IANS News July 24, 2026 • 15:30 PM View: 382

AFC U20 Asian Cup China: As part of their preparations for the AFC U20 Asian Cup China 2027 Qualifiers, the Indian U20 men's team will play two friendly matches against Singapore here at the Centre for Sports Excellence, the AIFF said on Friday.

The two matches, scheduled to take place on August 3 and 6 will take place behind closed doors.

India and Singapore have met twice before in official U20 men's competitions, with India winning both encounters in the AFC Youth Championship — a 4-1 victory in 1966, followed by a penalty shootout triumph in the quarter-finals during their title-winning campaign in 1974.
