Soni Kumari, 15, is the former captain of Under-14 Indian football team and currently a defender in the Under-16 Indian Football team. While her contribution to the team has won many laurels, she continues to live in an impoverished state in West Chamapran, Bihar. Her grit has helped her excel at the sport even when she struggles for two square meals a day. But for how long can she survive the challenge without state support?
