Sudeva Delhi FC win penalty shootout, enter U-17 Youth Cup final!

Sudeva Delhi FC defeated Chennaiyin FC in a tie-breaker at the Deccan Arena in Hyderabad on Friday, January 27 to reach the Final of the U-17 Youth Cup. The tie-breaker was applied after the teams were locked 2-2 at the end of regulation time. In the Final, the Delhi side will clash against Classic Football Academy.

In an evenly contested match, Chennaiyin FC took the lead six minutes before the half-time when Makakmayum Daniyal found the target. The lead, however, was cancelled immediately after the breather as Ramesh Chhetri struck the equaliser.
