NEW DELHI: It wasn’t the best of times for the India Women’s U17 National Team at the charming Buriram City Stadium on Tuesday as they went down to former champions Korea Republic 0-8 in their opening fixture of the AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup Qualifiers Round 2.
But then, it wasn’t the worst of times, either, despite the yawning scoreline. True, Priya PV’s girls found the going tough against the Mighty Koreans, one of the finest teams in the competition. But the few Indian fans present at the stadium could take solace from the fact that the Young Tigresses didn’t go down without a fight – they remained worthy of their names against a bunch of opponents, who displayed lively skills and an uncanny ability to switch flanks without a blink of their eyes.
