India women blank Bhutan 3-0 in SAFF U-15 opener

India outclassed Bhutan 3-0 in the opening match of the inaugural SAFF U-15 Championship being held at the Mohammad Mostofa Kamal Stadium in Dhaka, today.
In a completely one-sided encounter, Kritina, Priyanka and Pratiksha scored for India in the fourth, 11th and 19th minutes respectively to put an end to Bhutan's hopes.
India scored as early as in the fourth minute with Kritina breaking the deadlock.
What followed was a flurry of attacks with Priyanka doubling the lead in the 11th minute.
Defender Pratiksha too etched her name on the score sheet after she piled on Bhutan's misery with another goal in the 19th minute.

After grabbing all three points, India will next face Nepal on December 19.
