India U16 national team got the better of Singapore U17 team 3-1 on Saturday in the Jockey Club International Youth Invitational Football Tournament in Hong Kong.

India took the lead in the 24th minute when Rohit Danu received a pass from midfielder Ricky John Shabong and finished the chance off with aplomb. Two minutes later, Danu made it 2-0 by capitalising on Bekey Oram's pass.
Ridge Melvin made iot 3-0 in the 71st minute before Singapore pulled one back 11 minutes later.
India next play Hong Kong in their last match of the tournament on Sunday.
