India suffered a 0-1 defeat against Bangladesh in the SAFF U-19 Women’s Football Championship, conceding a stoppage time goal in their second round-robin match in Dhaka. The loss means that India’s chances of reaching the final now rely on their last round-robin match against Nepal. Both India and Nepal currently have three points, but Nepal holds the advantage of a superior goal difference due to their 10-0 victory over Bhutan in a previous match.
The winning goal for Bangladesh was scored by striker Sagorika, who capitalized on a long ball from skipper Afeida Khandaker to evade two defenders and find the net. This result places India in a precarious position as they seek to secure progression to the final stage of the championship.
