he Indian team is bracing up for one of its toughest challenges as it takes Ton heavyweights South Korea here on Monday for a berth in the semifinals of the AFC U-16 Championship and a ticket to the next U-17 World Cup. The Indian colts, coached by Bibiano Fernandes, have qualified for the quarter- final of the ongoing AFC U-16 Championship and now Korea, one of the strongest teams in the competition, stands in between. Sixteen years ago, the Indian U-16 team lost to Korea 1-3 in the same stage. "We know Korea Republic are the favourites and we are the underdogs," head coach Bibiano stated. "They are the overwhelming favourites." "But we have been the underdogs since the group-stages and we are banking on the same against Korea Republic," he added.
