India U16 boys held up to a goalless draw by Foundacion Valencia
The Indian colts started on a good note but the game ended in a stalemate.
India U-16 National Team who will compete in the AFC U-16 Championship this September, are on an exposure trip to Spain now and they were held to a goalless draw by Fundacion Valencia on April 11, 2018.
Bibiano's boys shown their mettle to defy the Spanish youngsters' initial flurry of attacks before creating the first opportunity of scoring but Bekey's shot went haywire in the 18th minute.
Gurkirat and Ricky also tried their luck in the first half before heading to the changing room all square.
Bibiano ringed in one change in the second half having brought in Ravi Bahadur Rana at the expense of Ricky to instil more vigour at the flanks. Ridge also joined the fray eight minutes later having replaced skipper Rohit Danu.

Although both teams had their share of making a difference in the dying moments of the game, the defenders sat tight in their own half to keep the scoreline unscathed.
