India were scheduled to play Turkey on Wednesday. However, the game has now been deferred for unknown reasons.
India played its first friendly match on the tour against AFC U-16 Championship qualified Oman on Monday, August 20, losing 1-2 with the game against Turkey scheduled for tomorrow.
Acting on it, the All India Football Federation immediately contacted Cameroon Football Federation with an offer to play a friendly game.
Interestingly the Cameroon U-16 National side has also been camping at Istanbul in preparation for their upcoming AFCON U-17 competition, so they were available at short notice to play a match.
The AIFF sincerely thanked the Cameroonian Football Federation (FECAFOOT), and are happy to confirm that the India U-16 boys will now be playing the recently crowned UNIFFAC champions Cameroon side in Kartepe on Wednesday, August 22.
