Meet India’s 21-member squad for the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup

India’s U-17 World Cup 21-man squad for the FIFA U-17 World Cup 2017 was announced on Thursday. India are in Group A alongside USA, Colombia and Ghana and are definite underdogs going into what will be their first-ever participation in a FIFA tournament. However, coach Luis Norton de Matos believes the side are equipped to deal with the challenge. “We believe that we are prepared for the FIFA U-17 World Cup. We have worked hard and made progress, but at the same time we go directly to a high level competition against some of the best teams in the world,” said de Matos.
