This Friday evening, the “little” Cagous played their last group match of the U17 World Cup. On the lawn of the Bandung stadium, in Indonesia, they lost 5-0 against Iran. A third defeat which marks the end of the adventure.
“Well done boys, you fought until the end. You have nothing coward. Welcome back home. Continue training seriously”, encourages a supporter on the Facebook page of the Caledonian Football Federation.
Selected for the U17 World Cup in Indonesia, the Caledonians lost their third and final group match against Iran this Friday evening, 5-0.
“The Cagou formation moved more forward. She did not succeed in erasing all her defensive errors but showed more consistency at the back, with another high-level performance from goalkeeper Nicolas Kutran”, underline the leaders of the FCF.

“We are in another world, we are playing against people who are stronger than us. We also came to learn, to gain experience, why not go play elsewhere to be able to reach the same level as them”, commented Joseph Hnaissilin, defender, before the match against Iran. The New Caledonia team had just met Brazil and lost 9-0.
It was their second match. Their first, they played against another “huge football nation”, England. Great experiences for young New Caledonian footballers.
