NEW DELHI: After losing out to Poland on their their bid for the men’s FIFA U-20 World Cup in 2019, the All India Football Federation (AIFF) has indicated to FIFA that they would like to host the next edition of the U-20 Women’s World Cup in 2020.
“We are examining the possibility of bidding for the U-20 Women’s World Cup in 2020. If you look at the FIFA U-17 World Cup, it gave such a fillip for the game in the country, and we expect the (U-20) Women’s World Cup to do the same for women’s football,” AIFF general secretary Kushal Das told The Times of India.
