Our boys started on disappointing note losing first group tie against Jordan 1-6 ... As per report there were no co-ordination between the strikers, mid fielders and the defenders.

Re: 2009 AFC Under-16 Championship qualifiers, Abu Dhabi, UAE
That is the results after this team has been together for a Goa camp for over 4 months?? .. God. I was so hopeful that things were beginning to move, but I suppose not? .. I am heart-broken.
On the positive side, this team seems truly not with over-aged players. Apparently these guys have undergone medical tests etc, as per coach Joseph Thomas who was asked that by IndianFootball.Com. In fact, there are quite a few 14 year olds in the team, as per the DOB data at the aiff website. I was also rather pleasantly surprised that this team has players from all over India (Four from Karnataka, and surprise of surprises, even two guys from Kerala! .. Would you believe that? ... Over the last few years, our national junior teams looked like malayalees had completely stopped playing football, and only the northeast kids knew of the sport) ..

As per report yesterday our boys showed excellent performance and played like unit which was missing in their last match against Jordan ... Against Turkmenistan they were unlucky to scored less goals as their many shots hit crossbars or saved by Turkmenistan goalkeeper ... In this match our boys managed to get 11 corner kicks, that showed how much we were dominating.

With this loss India's hope of qualifying for u-16 World Cup r over ... As per report our boys wasted too many chances in early of the match ... Match was evenly contested but in second half Oman converted their chances to scored crucial win.

India ended on disappointing note after losing to host UAE in final league match ... Again lapses in defence cost Indian side ... Overall disappointing outing in this u-16 AFC qualifier.

Coach Colin Toal's comments - Poor show is big setback, says U-16 coach Toal
I am actually happy that we finally had a team with no overage players. All it tookwas one look at the AIFF web page pictures of the players for me to know that this team was really u16 .. Finally we are becoming modern. There will be some state level turmoils for the next 3-4 years, but ultimately the truly talented kids (who are kept back these days by 2 or 3 year older players who win on size and hight and not on talent) will emerge ..
I feel like saying, "Jai Hind" !!

Re: AFC Under-16 Championship
Good to write after seven years in this thread.
We are host and matches r at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Goa ... Iran, Saudi Arabia and UAE are with us in Group A.
Iran defeated Saudi Arabia 3-2 in 1st match and in 2nd match we r playing against UAE.
We took early lead through excellent indirect free kick from outside the D from Sanjeev.
On 34th mins we conceded penalty through reckless tackle but our goal-keeper saved ... We conceded corner and UAE scored through Manea Aydh due to poor marking by our defender ... Our team immediately responded in 30 secs through Boris Thangjam ... So at half-time we r in lead 2-1.
Group A
India vs United Arab Emirates 2-1

Re: AFC Under-16 Championship
In the second half despite chances we failed to score ... UAE scored another goal after mistake by our defenders ... Aman Chetri headed over from close in before the hour-mark ... But our high-energy approach appeared to take its toll as the half wore on and UAE went in front for the first time on 74 minutes, again mistake from defenders and goal-keeper ... After that UAE defended well for a win.
