KATHMANDU: Pakistan on Wednesday defeated India 2-1 to win the U-16 South Asian Football Federation (SAFF) Championship in Katmandu.
Pakistan had earlier defeated India 1-0 during a group stage match and entered the final courtesy a 2-0 win over Bangladesh when they left the scoring to the last minute. India had secured their berth after overcoming Nepal on penalty kicks.
Pakistan remained unbeaten throughout the tournament.
This was the second time the two teams faced each other in the final of an event. The last time both countries had met in a title clash was at the 2004 South Asian Games in Islamabad, where Pakistan defeated India 1-0.
