India Face Chinese Taipei In Crucial Group D Clash Of AFC U17 Asian Cup Qualifiers
The Blue Colts began their campaign with a 1-1 draw against Palestine on Saturday, a match in which India showed control for long spells but were unable to convert their pressure into three points. Shubham Poonia’s first-half header put India ahead, but a late equaliser meant both teams shared the spoils on the opening day.
Looking ahead to the second fixture, head coach Bibiano Fernandes said the team has recovered well and is fully focused on the next challenge. “These players are still learning, and I always tell them to play not only with confidence, but also with responsibility. A draw doesn’t change our ambition. We want them to take the right risks, express themselves, and stay composed in difficult moments. The important thing is to grow from each match.”
