XtraTime Web Desk: The Indian U16 National Team defeated current Asian U16 Champions Iraq by a solitary goal in the WAFF U16 Championship in Amman, Jordan. Bhuvenesh headed in the match-winner in added time. The Indians were dominant all throughout and could have won by a bigger margin but for some agile goalkeeping from the Iraqi custodian.
India’s captain Sunil Chhetri took to twitter to congratulate the young colts on their huge victory.
Fantastic news coming out of Jordan where our @IndianFootball U16s have beaten Iraq 1-0! Keep working hard, boys. #INDvIRQ
