Determined to end AFC U-19 C'ship on winning note, says coach Floyd Pinto

Al Khobar (Saudi Arabia) Nov 9 (UNI) After losing their first two matches in the ongoing AFC U-19 Championship 2020 qualifiers, India's football coach Floyd Pinto on Saturday said that the team is determined to finish the campaign on a winning note.
India has faced defeats in their opening two matches against Uzbekistan and Saudi Arabia. The side would look to play for pride in their final match against Afghanistan at the Prince Saud bin Jalawi Stadium in Al Khobar on Sunday.
"We have treated every game like a final and will go into the Afghanistan match with the same intensity and attitude as we have. We know that they will also be fighting for pride and we can expect a good game against them. Playing three matches in five days is not easy and we'll assess the players and see how they recover. We are all determined to end this tournament on a winning note,"AIFF quoted Pinto as saying.
