When the Indian football team takes on host Bangladesh in the final of the SAFF Under-19 Women’s Championship on Thursday, it will be eyeing to break the myth and win the title. Despite improvements in women’s football in India, its performance in age group competitions has not been good.
The Indian women’s team had to lose the title more than once in SAFF competitions. Last year itself, it had lost to Bangladesh in the final of the SAFF Under-20 competition. In such a situation, the Indian team has a great opportunity to improve its record. The Indian team has performed well so far in the current competition. It had comfortably defeated Bhutan (10-0) and Nepal (4-0) in the group stage but lost to Bangladesh by a lone goal. The Indian team made it to the finals by finishing second in the group.
India will now take the field to take revenge but it is not so easy to defeat Bangladesh. Indian team head coach Shukla Dutta said, “The Indian team has been losing to Bangladesh for the last three years and it is not good but now we have a chance to change it.” Both the teams will put in equal efforts from their side but the team which scores the first goal will have more chances of winning. Scoring the first goal boosts confidence.
