Praful Patel: Women’s U-17 World Cup will provide India global recognition

The Hindu  

All India Football Federation president Praful Patel on Monday said hosting the U-17 Women’s World Cup will “provide global recognition” to Indian football. “In 2020 we host FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup which will provide global recognition to Indian football. You need to go back to the FIFA U-17 World Cup India 2017 to understand the impact which it had in Indian football society, and also among FIFA and AFC,” Patel stated. 21,471 kids participated in the League last year.” He also made a mention of the Indian women’s senior team playing 32 international matches in 2019, an increase of 300 per cent from last year.
