Goals from Deepak Tangri (4th), and a divine free-kick from Anwar Ali (68th) along with some determined pressing, defending and astute passing helped India register the upset victory against Argentina U-20 who have won 6 FIFA U-20 World Cups over the years. 
Among 8 boys who represented India in the FIFA U-17 World Cup started the day for India with the rest all being from AIFF's developmental team Indian Arrows.For the record, this is the second time the two sides met - the first time being in the 3rd Nehru Cup in Calcutta in 1984 when India lost 0-1.(UNI)
