FIFA U-17 World Cup India 2017

The city of Mumbai was building up to the first Football World Cup in any category, in the country. Mumbai Football Arena hosted few friendly matches for Brazil, England and New Zealand, before the World Cup commenced on 6th October 2017. It was a good chance for the locals to see the next generation of international players. With the sport growing rapidly in the country, it was appropriate timing for the World Cup to be organised in India.
