Dominating possession and creating goal scoring chances at will, the AIFF Colts finally breached the opponent’ defence in the 60th minute as Amit Tudu capitalized on an uncanny save from the opponent’ custodian, after a thumping Jayananda header, and scored to hand the colts a solitary goal lead.
In the dying embers of the match, the Colts doubled their lead and put the tie to bed as Nijwm blasted his chance into the bottom corner following a tacky one touch play with Surya. The full-time scoreline read 2-0 in favor of the AIFF U-17 Colts.
