India Vs Nepal Live Score, SAFF U-19 Women's Championship 2026: IND Mounts Pressure

India keep the pressure on Nepal's goal as they keep shining attacks. This time a battle for possession sees India come out on top and the through ball beats both the goalkeeper and the defenders to go beyond the goalline. There was no Indian forward to tap it in. Nepal feeling the pressure.

India go ahead early in the second half and Nepal concede. Some sloppy defending from the hosts. India wins back the ball and puts in a cut back which gets slotted in by Pearl Fernandes. India have played good football so far and the goal is the reward of their performance.

That's the whistle and with it the stoppage comes to an end. Both set of players are going back to the dug out and the score line is still at 0-0 as no team has been able to take a lead so far.

Nepali player is getting some medical attention after a collision on the field. We are 37 minutes into the game and no team has been able to take a lead yet as the score line says 0-0.

India are utlising the right wing so far for the build up of attack and from the right wing arrives a cross which Alva Senjam fails to get a clean connection on. She lands the header but it came off miscued and goes wide of the post. She was free and should have kept it on target.

India are the one who are building up the play with short passes and often reaching the edge of the Nepal penalty box. They have also tried to open up the goal with through passes but haven't been able to nail the timing. Nepal fall back to structure.

It's time! The match gets underway at the Pokhara Rangasala Stadium. India kicking from right to left and Nepal from left to right in the first half.
