India, April 4 -- India's Minerva Academy FC led to a stunning upset in the global youth football scene when they comprehensively outplayed Liverpool FC 6-0 on Friday, April 3, 2026. Playing in the Round of 16 at the highly-regarded Mediterranean International Cup (MIC) 2026, the Punjab-based academy not only roughed up one of the world's most famous football youth setups but also exhibited a performance based on tactical discipline and clinical finishing.

This success will go down as a landmark moment for Indian grassroots football because Minerva is the first Indian club to ever compete in the MIC Cup, and by doing so, they have already established themselves as a global Under-15 force.
