The two back-to-back International Friendlies between India and Nepal to be played at the Dasharath Stadium, Kathmandu will be live-streamed on Indian Football Team’s official Facebook page – @TheIndianFootballTeam.
While the first International Friendly is slated to be held on September 2, 2021, and the second International Friendly is scheduled for September 5, 2021. The kick-off time for both the matches is IST 5.15 pm.
In view of the quarantine restrictions on travel in most countries worldwide, and with no quarantine restrictions on Indians travelling to Nepal at the moment, the National coach felt that the International Friendlies would help in the Blue Tigers’ preparation for the forthcoming SAFF Championship in the Maldives in October.
