India will face Bangladesh in the final of the four nation South Asian Football Federation’s (SAFF) U-19 Women’s Championship 2024 on Thursday. The match will kick off at 6 pm local time at Bir Shreshtha Shaheed Sipahi Mohammad Mostafa Kamal (BSSSMK) Stadium, Dhaka.
In the group stage, India won comfortably against Bhutan and Nepal but lost to Bangladesh. India entered the final as the second-place finishers in the group. While Bangladesh reached the final as top finisher by winning all the league matches.
This final is a great opportunity for India to snatch the title from the defending champion Bangladesh.
India is having a good attack, tight defence and a balanced midfield to put on their claim on the title. However, it will not be easy to defeat the host Bangladesh who is enjoying an upper hand advantage against the rival.
