The India U-20 men's football team will gear up for their second international friendly against Singapore U-20 at Bengaluru's Centre for Sports Excellence as preparation for the AFC U-20 Asian Cup 2027 Qualifiers.
The India U-20 men’s national football team, also known as the Blue Colts, are preparing to take on the Singapore U-20 men's side in their second and final international friendly on Thursday, August 6, 2026. The match will take place at the Centre for Sports Excellence in Bengaluru as both teams prepare for the upcoming AFC U-20 Asian Cup 2027 Qualifiers.
India heads into the game following a dominant 3-0 victory against Singapore in their first friendly match played three days earlier. Mahesh Gawali and his squad will look to maintain their style of football and secure another win over the visitors.
Singapore U-20 will be aiming for a improved performance after struggling in the opening match. Known for staying well-organized, defending as a unit, closing down spaces, and relying on forward runs in attack, the visitors will look to fix their defensive shape and rest defence against the hosts.
The fixture will be played behind closed doors at the Centre for Sports Excellence. As a result, no general viewers will be allowed at the venue, and there will be no live streaming or live telecast available for the match.
