“It’s a unique chance to show everyone that we have prepared well and will not allow anyone to run over us.” The prestigious tournament will be held in Bhubaneswar, Margao in Goa, and Navi Mumbai from October 11-30. The Kalinga Stadium will host three pool matches of India. When you are on the field, everything is held back behind and you just have to focus on the game. That’s what the girls need to do. “We are not going into the tournament as the favourites. I believe the pressure then is on the opponents, the head coach said. Pointing out the importance of performing well on the pitch, Dennerby said: The performance is key for us. And I hope the girls are not much nervous and will play with confidence. You can’t be nervous and perform at the same time. It’s time to get the ball rolling. India squad for FIFA U-17 World Cup: Goalkeepers: Monalisha Devi Moirangthem, Melody Chanu Keisham, Anjali Munda.
