AGENCIES, NEW DELHI: The India U-15 team started their title defence of the SAFF U-15 Championship with a 1-2 loss against Pakistan in their first match at the ANFA Complex in Kathmandu, Nepal, on Thursday.
A late goal by Pakistan in the 85th minute proved to be the difference between the two sides in a tightly contested match where the opponents had taken the lead in the first half, only to be equalised in the 53rd minute by the Indian Colts.
The Indian Colts started the match on an attacking note and dominated possession. Chances although were created, failed to see the light of day as the opponents flooded bodies in defence.
India will clash against Bhutan next on Saturday.
