Indian rein Bhutan on friendly football

Bhutan lost to India’s new football team 3-0 in an unoffical friendly palyed in Thimphu this week. India scored three within the first 21 minutes.

A goal each from the two strikers Sumeet Passi and captain Jeje Lalpekhlua, and another from Halicharan Narzary within the first 21 minutes were enough for a new-look Indian football team to romp Bhutan.

The dominance was totally one-sided, from Indian team. However, Bhutan team performed very well in the second half of the game, forcing Indian team away from goal post. The Indian team failed to add to their tally despite Bhutan being reduced to 10-men for the last 36 minutes. There were chances and once Jeje’s shot even hit the inside of the bar and bounced back.
