This is India\u2019s third consecutive qualification in the AFC U-16 finals, and ninth overall.<\/p>\n

In 2018, the U-16 boys stayed a win away from a direct qualification into the FIFA U-17 World Cup when they lost to Korea Republic by a solitary goal in the quarterfinals. That was India\u2019s second entry into the quarterfinals, the earlier being in 2002.<\/p>\n

The current batch will head to the Championship in Bahrain on back of some amazing results last year that saw them net score a whopping 28 goals (without conceding any from five matches on their way to the SAFF U-15 Championship title. The boys currently stay unbeaten in 8 International matches.<\/p>\n
