The starting XI for India

Welcome to our live coverage !!!

After a forgetful opening match against Croatia U19 in which the Indian’s lost 0-5, Floyd Pinto’s side put up a much improved show in their fixture with Slovenia U19 where the Indian colts lost by a solitary goal. The ‘Men in Blue’ will be against the boys from France U19 in the final match of the four nation’s tour, which promises to be the toughest 90 minutes for the young boys from Asia!

The India U19 team was blanked the first game against Croatia U19, conceding 4 goals in the first half itself. Apart from a few positive moves early in the first, Amarjit and Co. produced nothing to be true. In the second game, Aniket Jadhav and Suresh Singh had clear chances to convert but were denied. This will be the last chance for the Indian team to good use of the opportunity of playing against quality outfits in alien conditions!

The Indian team has been in Europe as a part of AIFF’s exposure tour. They will travel to Serbia following the match against France U19 for a couple of friendlies against the Serbian U19 team.
