Football: Suhail Bhat Fires India U23 To Victory Against Hosts Indonesia In First Friendly
Gelora Bung Karno Madya Stadium: India U23 men’s team defeated Indonesia 2-1 in the first of two U23 international friendlies at the Gelora Bung Karno Madya Stadium in Jakarta, Indonesia, on Friday, taking another strong step in its preparations for next year's Asian Games in Japan.
All goals came in the first half, as Naushad Moosa’s side raced to an early two-goal lead thanks to a superb brace from Suhail Ahmad Bhat (5’ and 26’) before Dony Tri Pamungkas pulled one back four minutes before half-time. After another intensely fought second half that yielded no goals, the Blue Colts claimed a well-deserved win that underlined both their attacking prowess and defensive solidity.
India made a lightning-quick start, taking the lead in only the fifth minute when Suhail Ahmad Bhat intercepted a loose pass by Frengky Missa, burst into the box, and thrashed a right-footed shot into the top corner.
