U17 Asian Cup Qualifiers: India Edge Turkmenistan To Notch Up Second Consecutive Win
The India U17: The India U17 men's team won its second game on the trot in Group D of the AFC Under-17 Asian Cup 2025 Qualifiers, beating Turkmenistan 1-0 at the Chonburi Stadium here on Friday. The lone goal, scored by Rishi Singh, came at the edge of half-time. India now have six points from two matches and will play hosts Thailand in their concluding group tie on Sunday.
India picked up from where they left off in the 13-0 win over Brunei Darussalam, confidence oozing through their veins and good form evident in their play. In the sixth minute, Mohammed Kaif had the first shot, a long-range effort that went off target.
Two minutes later came a clear-cut chance to take the lead, when Levis Zangminlun dribbled in from the left and released Hemneichung Lunkim inside the box. The forward drove in, opened his body, and tried to curl a shot into the far corner, but it drifted harmlessly wide.
