Hello and welcome to the live coverage! The match is about to kick off.
...
India U16 side will take on USA U16 in their final match of the Sport Chain Cup on 19th of April.
 
India has been without a win in the Sport Chain Cup so far. This is the 3rd and final chance of the India U16 football team to win a match. They faced USA U16 team first up, where they lost 1-0 and in the 2nd match which they played yesterday, they lost 3-1 to Norway.
 
Bibiano Fernandes has a lot to learn from the Sport Chain Cup 2018. The Indian strikers just have not been upto the mark in both the matches. Bibiano Fernandes, the Indian U16 football team coach is sure to make some tactical changes coming into this game. The same formation and tactics were followed in the previous two games and one can say that they worked to a certain extent as well because India created a lot of goal scoring opportunities. However, as India were not ultimately able to convert the opportunities into goals, something new certainly needs to be tried. 
 
India has been a strong bunch in the Defense and in the midfield. We will have to wait and see how they fare in their third and final match.
