Oman lost to our group opponents Iran twice 1-0 and 2-1..They will play a friendly against Indonesia also Not sure if our team is playing any friendlies in Malaysia
Indonesia u16 coach Fakhri Husaini on Indian team: "I have seen Iranian and Indian videos. I see they have players with big postures but don't have more speed and that is my motivation for children".
Indonesia u16 come to this tournament after beating Thailand in the final of AFF u16. With highly skilled and agile players, they were all over Thailand and should have won with a bigger margin. Beating Indonesia is gonna be an uphill task for India u16. The first match between Iran and Indonesia will tell us who will be qualifying from this group.
Looks overconfident. At U16 level anything can happen and depends a lot on consistency. But to be frank Vietnam is no pushover either. Contrary to the belief here I feel this is a very tough group. All 4 teams have been playing extremely well and both Indonesia and Vietnam is coming to this tournament with great reputation in the last few years at lower age group level. Having said that , this Indian team is very good and if we are physically better than our opponents that's certainly an advantage even over speed.
