RESPECT EARNED. πβ½
Our second group-stage match of the Sainik Cup was against Nepal Police School, last year's champions and one of the strongest teams in the competition.
Despite having one of the youngest squads in the tournament, GFA NEPAL entered the match with a clear tactical plan β compact defensive organization, low and mid-blocks, controlled spaces and collective discipline.
The boys executed the plan with tremendous commitment.
HALF-TIME: 0β0
Our goalkeeper produced an excellent performance, while the entire team worked together to frustrate a much more experienced and physically stronger opponent.
We eventually conceded two goals in the final 15 minutes.

The result wasn't what we wanted, but the performance represented a significant step forward.
A young team that many expected to concede heavily instead competed with discipline, courage and tactical maturity against the defending champions.
The appreciation received after the match says a lot about the performance.
Three points were not ours.
But belief, experience and respect were earned.
This is youth football.
This is development.
This is GFA NEPAL. πβ½
