In Football, India won the South Asian Football Federation (SAFF) Under-19 Championship after defeating Pakistan 3-0 in a dominating display in the finals at the Dashrath Rangasala Stadium in Kathmandu this evening. Manglenthang Kipgen and Gwgwmsar Goyary scored for India.
 
Pakistan possessed no threat to the well-composed Indian side, who dominated the game from the start. The first half ended goalless courtesy of an excellent defensive display by the Green Shirts but they could not keep up the same intensity throughout as India opened their account in the 64th minute. The game went in India’s favour as they were up by three goals.
 
With today's victory, India successfully defended their title, which they won last year.
