India to take part in 12th SAFF Cup in Bangladesh in May 2018!

The AIFF has cleared the Indian national football team to play the 12th edition of the South Asian Football Federation (SAFF) Championships from May 1 to 12, 2018 in Bangladesh after an earlier date of December 2017 had been declined by India.

The AIFF in a press release stated, “The executive committee agreed to the proposal of the SAFF Committee to play the tournament in Bangladesh from May 1-12.”

India are the most successful team of the biennial South Asian tournament and had won the last edition in December 2015/January 2016 at home in Thiruvananthapuram.

The December 2017 schedule was not suitable for India due to national club football commitments.
