So guys, how did the team play?I am amazed noone out of Gurpreet,Uttam,Udanta and Brandon played yet they managed to hold Uzbek's for entire game.I personally feel its a decent result,considering u-23 is backbone of of any country, but what is your opinion?
We Indians act crazy in whatever things we like or follow... before tournament we were pretty sure this wasn't the best U-23 squad of recent years yet when our team able to hold team for over 85 minutes though we conceded twice later... we are cursing the nerves of players...
We should either target high from the start like we can defeat uzbeks or even hold them... if not we should be proud that our team performed higher than our expectations
first of all Uttam,Udanta and Brandon are yet to play one full I league game..they are no where near the back bone of team India..Infact who knows they may never make the playing 11 of India U-23 now..I wish they do but it wont be easy
Uttam Rai and Brandon had been hyped alot by media many simply think they are best young players Uttam was bench warmer for India under 19 And Brandon existed in newspapers and websites
StephenConstantine @StephenConstan · 1h 1 hour ago U23s went down 0-2 they played well in patches especially in 2nd half when they changed the system, two silly mistakes cost us.
Vinit Rai at 17 and Germanpreet at age of 18 made their U-23 team debut..thats really heartening..Will they catch Stephen's eyes for the senior national camp along with Avinash,Jayesh ?

I was not saying saying udanta,brandon etc form the backbone of u-23 team as i also know they haven't played for u-23
