India coach Bibiano Fernandes on Indian team: “We are the dark horses of this tournament and at the same time we possess the ability to upset some of the better youth teams as we have in the past.”
Bibiano on opponents :"Iran are phenomenal in the U-16 category and have time and again made it past the group stages while both Vietnam and Indonesia are upcoming youth teams with a lot of potential".
Iran are a completely drilled side. They have prepared for this tournament by playing and winning against u23, u21 and reserve teams of their league. They have beaten Azerbaijan twice with almost tennis match margins. They have recently beaten Oman whom we lost against. Talking about the 2 ASEAN teams Vietnam are 2017 AFF u15 winners and Indonesia are 2018 AFF u16 winners. Reality is we are in a group of champions ( if we will consider India's victory in SAFF u15 LMAO).
Today's matches:
Malaysia U-16 vs Tajikistan U-16 at 2:00 PM
Japan U16 vs Thailand U-16 at 6:15 PM
My money is on Malaysia and Thailand. Why don't we have a broadcaster?
