The Indian squad is riding high on confidence after back-to-back wins at the Pink Ladies U20 Youth Cup. On Saturday, the Young Tigresses battled past a Hong Kong side featuring 14 players over 20, including several senior team members, securing a gritty 1-0 victory.
Sibani Devi’s strike put India ahead, but Hong Kong, with their wealth of experience, pushed relentlessly for an equaliser.
The Young Tigresses faced some anxious moments at the back but showed grit to see out the game with a hard-fought clean sheet. Impressively, they have yet to concede from open play in Türkiye.
Earlier, they had edged out Jordan U20 2-1 in their opening match.
Now, a tougher challenge looms in the form of a physically superior Russian side. With fewer attacking openings expected, India will need to be sharp on the counter and make the most of their chances in what promises to be a demanding encounter.
The Indian squad had their training in The Sports School in Bengaluru in preparation for the SAFF U20 Women's Championship and the AFC U20 Asian Cup Qualifiers to be held in July-August 2025.
