History was written at every match that PIFA-CYFC team played. The first two game was against Botswania's top club side Notwane FC & South Africa's SAFA Sedibeng Select (the best players from Sedigeng). The game was fast paced and the players were extremely skillful. PIFA-CYFC held them till the final minutes before conceding goals due to fatigue.

Playing against Inter Milan was the highlight of this tour. PIFA-CYFC started very badly, but came back very strongly forcing play in their half. PIFA-CYFC has quite a few opportunities but was unlucky. Ten minutes from play, Karan Sawhney scored for PIFA-CYFC and created history.

The team did extremely well considering that the boys could only train for 16 days that to during their final school exams.

The tournament was won by Boca Juniors (Argentina) they beat Esperance (Tunisia) 2-0 in the finals. Inter Milan came 3rd.
