The All India Football Federation (AIFF) XI's first match of the U-16 Asia Champions Trophy 2014 against Frenz United, Malaysia, A, in Kuala Lumpur has been postponed by a day.

The AIFF XI boys left Kolkata Friday morning and would be arriving in Kuala Lumpur Saturday after spending the night in Bangkok.

"It's an U-16 Tournament and we won't make any compromise on the rest of the players. As the AIFF XI boys arrive in Kuala Lumpur around 1 pm on Saturday, it's important that we allow enough time to rest and recover from their hectic journey for them to get ready for the match," the organisers further said.
