COTIF Cup: Indian women's football team handed special trophy in Spain..

 Impressed with the Indian women's football team's performance in the COTIF Cupin Valencia, the tournament's presidend handed the players a special third-placed trophy.

India played four matches in the COTIF Cup, of which they won two (3-1 against Mauritania and 7-0 against Bolivia) and lost two (0-2 against both Villarreal and Spain U-19).

This is the team's best finish in the tournament, and it also won the Fair Play award.

"The organisation has valued the immense progress made by the Indian women's team over the last year. They have been a combative side with a warrior spirit that has made the fans here at COTIF fall in love with them," said Tormos.

"For all this, we have given them the prize for the national team that has behaved in the most sporting manner in the event, and I hope that they can come back here next year and repeat their performance once again in 2020. For all that India has offered us, and for being a revelation this year, I would like to thank them," he stated.

The COTIF president also congratulated the Indian coach personally after the tournament.

"We were awarded the fair play trophy, but there was no specific prize for the third-placed teams. However, the day after the last match, the local organisers presented us with a trophy, and the COTIF president also came over to congratulate us on the massive improvement we have shown," Rocky said.
