People mention this again and again that world cup stars and so. We should realise that India Played in U 17 World Cup because we were the Hosts. Otherwise our level was not of even qualifying for Asian Championship of U 15, U 17 or U 19. At this level, we should broaden our pool of players involved in competitive football. Sadly this policy of baby sitting a small group of average footballers will not pay any dividends. Lot of unnecessary publicity of age group teams !!!
Pinto will say, after todays match " Todays match was a good learning experience for our boys. It will help them when they play for arrows in this years I league. The biggest positive from todays match was that Saudi couldnt even score a single goal in second half."
Strong teams try to conserve their energy for future matches of the tournament and prevent injuries once the result is completely in their pocket. It is unnecessary to take credit of second half.
I mean being in his shoes it's hard, you can only take positives. You can't bitch about the team after a loss like that. He's working with what he has.
