SAFF U-16 Women's Championship: Where and how to watch Bangladesh vs India game?

India earned an ecstatic win in their first match of the SAFF U-16 Women’s Championship on March 1.

A spot in the SAFF U16 Women’s Championship final will be on the line as India take on Bangladesh in their second match of the tournament.

After a thumping 7-0 victory over Bhutan in Friday’s opener, helped by Anushka Kumari’s hat-trick, Pearl Fernandes’ brace, and strikes from Shveta Rani and Anwita Raghuraman, another win against in-form Bangladesh would see the Young Tigresses book their place in the final with a match to spare. Bangladesh opened their campaign with a 2-0 win over hosts Nepal on Saturday, with Sauravi Akanda Prity netting a first-half brace.

“A hundred percent, we will enter the pitch against Bangladesh with the mentality to win and play pressing football. We don’t want a defensive game. We’ll go all out for the three points,” said head coach Biby Thomas on the eve of the match.

Broadly looking, Bangladesh have had the edge over India in the SAFF women’s youth tournaments from U15 to U20 levels. Out of the total 13 meetings since 2017, Bangladesh have won seven, India have won three, while the other three have been draws.

Having watched Bangladesh’s victory over Nepal two days ago, Thomas shared his opinion on the opponents. “Bangladesh are always a decent team. They have a few experienced players who have played for the U17s. Overall, they looked an organised side in defence, midfield, and attack. We have to be fully concentrated.”
