The India U-17 Men’s National Team will look to end their camp in Spain on a high, as they prepare to face Atletico de Madrid U-18 in their sixth and final training game, at the Alcala De Henares, on Friday.The Blue Colts have played five preparatory games in Spain, against Atletico de Madrid U-17s (4-1), CD Leganes U-18s (0-2), Atletico de Madrid U-16s (2-1), Real Madrid U-17s (3-3), and Getafe U-18 (1-3).
After a string of decent results, the team lost to Getafe U-18s 1-3 in their last game. They will play one last training game against Atletico de Madrid U-18s in the Iberian Peninsula, before travelling to Germany.
Head coach Bibiano Fernandes said, “We’ve had a lot of positives and a lot of good results here in Spain, and I am sure the last match against Atletico Madrid U-18s will also be a good experience for the boys. The match against Getafe was a tough one as the boys had to deal with a lot of physical players in the game. But it’s matches like these that you really learn from, and we have been stressing these lessons on the boys after the game."
