Acting on it All India Football Federation (AIFF) immediately contacted Cameroon Football Federation with an offer to play a friendly game.

AIFF sincerely thanks the Cameroon Football Federation (FECAFOOT Fédération Camerounaise de Football), and are happy to confirm that their U-16 boys will now be playing the recently crowned UNIFFAC Cup champions Cameroon side in Kartepe on Wednesday.
