Bernardo made it 3-0 for Estoril in the 55th minute and although India pulled a goal back through Rahim Ali in the 78th minute when he tapped home a Rahul cross, Estoril added more gloss to the scoreline in the 88th minute when Andrade’s effort found the back of the net.

In the previous game, the Indian U17 World Cup team played exceedingly well against mighty Benfica the other day to hold them to a 2-2 draw. Today some early defensive errors by the Blue Tigers costed the game in the first half. Since then they never got the opportunity to recover.
