SAFF U17: Blue Colts enter semis
Orissa POST
|September 20, 2025
The India U17 men's national team sealed their spot in the semifinals of the SAFF U17 Championship 2025 after edging past Bhutan 1-0 in their second Group B match here Friday.
India will next play Pakistan Monday, and the winner of the game will finish top of the group.
Super-sub Rahan Ahmed, introduced in the second half, scored the only goal of the match in the 57th minute, to hand India a narrow win. His efforts earned him the player of the match title.
Unlike the goal-fest in the opener, the Blue Colts had to be patient and faced a tighter challenge than expected as Bhutan's defence stayed disciplined and held firm.
