India U17 blank Bangladesh U19 to win SAFF U19 Women's title

Pokhara(Nepal), Feb 7(UNI) They may have been playing in a higher age-category tournament; they may have been written off for it. But the India U17 women’s team showed their mettle in the final to clinch the SAFF U19 Women’s Championship, defeating Bangladesh U19s 4-0 at the Pokhara Rangasala Stadium, on Saturday, February 7, 2026.
Captain Julan Nongmaithem (42’) opened the scoring before Elizabed Lakra (63’ penalty), Pearl Fernandes (68’) and substitute Anwita Raghuraman (83’) completed a commanding triumph, as the Young Tigresses emphatically avenged their earlier round-robin defeat (0-2) against Bangladesh.
India had sent their U17 women’s national team to Pokhara to participate in the SAFF U19 Women’s Championship, in order for the Young Tigresses to prepare for the AFC U17 Women’s Asian Cup, later this year.
